Because during the Second World War, the United States absorbed almost all the world's wealth, so that it directly became a well-deserved world hegemon in the middle of the world, even if there was a Soviet Union that claimed to be able to wrestle with it, but everyone knows what the actual situation is.

And because the U.S. government was too rich in the last century, and it was so rich that it couldn't be increased, every president who was elected would desperately increase the welfare of the people in order to win votes.

Otherwise, if you look at the living standards of the American people before World War II, it is completely one day and one place!

But those former bigwigs are super happy to throw money and sprinkle all the people, but as the successors of the White House, since the nineties, they can't wait to pull out all those presidents in the sixties and seventies and shoot them!

In the sixties and seventies, relying on the gold standard of the US dollar and the world market, the United States basically became the country with the best welfare treatment in the world.

Such welfare benefits have naturally greatly enhanced the patriotism of the people, but the trick is that all this needs money!

The United States is not the British Empire, which was known as the sun never set, and can rely on a steady stream of colonial blood transfusions to supply its own needs.

Britain relied on many colonies to turn a small place into the center of the world, but with the huge losses of World War II and the independence of the colonies, everyone knows what Britain is like now.

Besides, how many people were there in the British Isles back then? How many people are there in the United States?

Unless the whole world is now a colony of the United States, the U.S. government will be able to continue that high welfare policy.

But this question, everyone just thinks about it, even the most arrogant idiot does not dare to think so.

So the White House's statement is a deficit every year, and the poor people calculate the accounts, and if they go to work, the money they earn after paying taxes all year round is actually not much different from the money they get from eating benefits.

And that idiot still goes to work?

It's like Fiona's rotten ghost daddy Frank, who would rather be scolded every day than want to work, anyway, there is a monthly unemployment allowance, how tiring it is to work!

It is precisely because there are more and more lazy people like Frank that the cost of manual labor in the United States has increased extremely, almost surpassing those second-tier white-collar technicians.

But despite this, there are still many people who are too lazy to work, and they would rather eat and drink in a low-quality bar every day than waste their precious physical strength.

Recent presidents have not failed to think about weakening the so-called social welfare and forcing these people to work, but before this plan can be spoken, it has been pushed down by a bunch of well-fed and idle guys.

In the words of those so-called caring people, those poor people can't eat enough to practice, and the government wants to deduct their welfare, it's crazy!

If you can't throttle naturally, then you have to open source!

But open source, where to start?

The world market is so big, the United States has already eaten nearly half of it, and if it is open source, it will only be able to move other people's cakes.

So over the years, it has been looking for trouble with those small countries, hoping to rely on their markets to alleviate its internal contradictions.

At the very least, it can stimulate domestic arms consumption, right?

It's just that that thing is completely drinking to quench your thirst, and it doesn't help at all, mainly because there are too many Americans, and a small fight is just an itch in the boots, and at most it is just a few months of relief.

As for a big fight?

Don't you want to die? Now that great power does not have a full-coverage nuclear strike? Are you all ready to finish together?

If you can't open up abroad, then you should come and develop the country.

But in the face of General Motors, Rockefeller, ****, Goldman Sachs, Microsoft, DuPont, .......

Walter thought it would be better for him to go out and find a rope to hang, after all, it would be more dignified to die that way.

Moving these guys is even more terrifying than playing with fire!

How did Lincoln and Kennedy die? Every president knows it by heart!

The president of the world's largest power was directly killed by a gunman at home, and the murderer was acquitted after a few years in prison.

The wealthy families on Long Island must have raised their hands to approve of the president building a bridge for themselves to make their lives easier, but if they were to pay for it?

The major families said that we felt that it was more convenient to go out and use the helicopter to buy groceries.

The sky-high cost of the cross-sea bridge can completely make a top-level gate valve a fool, even if more than a dozen families pay together, it will hurt their vitality.

On the other hand, Congress is just two words.

No money!

The US budget is now in deficit of tens of trillions, and if it had not been living on foreign debt all these years, Capitol Hill and the White House would have declared bankruptcy long ago.

As for the money owed?

There is a kind of you who call those countries to come, you see if the White House admits it!

So when Walter was at a loss, Raymond showed him a straight way.

We can't fix it ourselves, we can find someone else to fix it!

If you ask which country is the best and fastest engineering team in the world today, it is estimated that anyone who understands the world pattern a little bit will know it.

After all, for a large country with a huge population base and the largest polluting industry, no one dares to claim the first place in the world if it is the second fastest in the world to build bridges.

As for the quality of the bridge?

That's complete nonsense, as the largest producer, can't even guarantee its own quality?

The quality problems you see on weekdays are all because they are intentional, otherwise a bridge will not be bad for hundreds of years, how to make money in all aspects!

However, if the United States were to find the other side to build a bridge across the sea, whether it was from the perspective of political factors or the face of great success, there would absolutely be no problem with the bridge.

Moreover, the wages of construction workers on the other side are a drop in the bucket compared to those in the United States, and they are so cheap that they are to death.

The main thing is that you can also take credit!

Walter's side is almost empty-gloved, and the white wolf can ask the other party to repair the bridge for free, and the big deal is to promise to repay it in installments later.

As for whether this installment is divided into 100 years or 200 years.

What's wrong with him, anyway, he will abdicate after seven years at most, and the future will give the future president a headache.
