"Hmph! The intellectuals at the top are completely pro-Western! Politicians do whatever it takes to reap the benefits! The government is corrupt to the core! A large amount of resources are occupied by multinational corporations! In such an environment, it is only when South American countries can develop that they can do so. www.biquge.info As the saying goes, there is no greater sorrow than to be too far from God and too close to America. Maya sat down in her chair and rolled her eyes in annoyance.

Lu Li smiled and shook his head: "No, although what you said is also a pretty serious problem, it is not the most important thing. The main problem with South American countries is that they have not built a long-term stable pyramidal social structure. ”

Maya took a bite of the fried bacon fiercely, and asked without raising her head, "What do you mean?"

"It's literal. According to the concept of economics, the so-called industrialization is actually a process of capital densification.

Therefore, when a country wants to industrialization, the first thing is to have a stable source of capital, secondly, it needs a market that can absorb industrial capacity, and finally it needs to be able to pass on the crisis.

Only when these three points are met at the same time can industrialization be successful.

The United States, for example, initially completed its initial capital accumulation through high tariff protection, and the plundering of the southern agricultural states by the northern industrial states of the Civil War, and used the defeated southern states as dumping grounds for industrial capacity.

However, even so, due to the lack of the ability to pass on the crisis at that time, the United States still broke out in an unprecedented economic crisis from 1929 to 1932, which indirectly led to the outbreak of World War II.

As for Britain, which was the first to carry out the industrial revolution, it completed its own capital accumulation and production capacity digestion by sucking blood from its huge overseas colonies.

To a certain extent, the reason why the entire Western world has been able to become a developed country is not the set of values of democracy and freedom that they have been preaching, but the most primitive, bloodiest, and darkest economic plunder.

Think about it, with the situation of South American countries, can they become predators of the tide of globalization of capital?

Thank goodness they didn't become the object of plunder......"

Lu Li expressed his opinion while eating the omelette.

In his view, the biggest problem of South American countries is not the ruthless plundering of European and American countries, but the government's inability to properly control financial and monetary sovereignty.

Most South Americans prefer to use dollars, euros, and pounds compared to their own currencies, so with a little economic problem, they will exchange a large amount of foreign currency, causing the national currency to plummet, followed by foreign capital taking advantage of the opportunity to enter, and buying and selling at extremely cheap prices, just like the rapid depreciation of the currencies of the member countries after the collapse of the Soviet Union, a hundred dollars can be exchanged for a thick stack of rubles, and these rubles can buy things that are far more than ten times or a hundred times more than a hundred dollars.

It is through the power of financial capital that Western countries insert pipes into the veins of resource-exporting and manufacturing countries, continuously sucking blood and maintaining their own high welfare.

In fact, the root cause of the United States' extreme hostility to China is not a trade deficit, let alone a so-called undemocratic system, but that the renminbi is not freely convertible like most countries' currencies.

China monetizes its own resources in its own currency and is almost free from the intervention of foreign capital, so Western countries cannot complete the plundering of China like most third world countries.

In addition, the RMB settlement centers and bilateral trade agreements under construction around the world greatly threaten the financial hegemony of the US dollar, which is the real irreconcilable contradiction between the two countries.

In terms of economic structure alone, the two countries are actually complementary, one is the real economy with manufacturing as the core, and the other is the virtual economy with finance as the center, the former provides cheap products for the latter, and the latter earns a lot of profits by investing in the former.

"Sounds terrible! Is South America destined to be only puppets for the Americans?" said Maya, swallowing the bacon in her mouth, a look of chagrin on her face.

Although she has lived in the United States for many years, she has never forgotten that she is a Hispanic and always hopes that one day South America will break free from American control and gain real independence.

Lu Li thought for a moment and immediately replied: "It's not that there is no way, but it requires a powerful politician with courage and skill. As you may have heard, Asia, including China, Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, and so on, are all assessed as hyper-stable social structures, which means that even if these countries have an economic crisis, they will not break out in turmoil like other countries. Guess what?"

Maya frowned and pondered for a long time, and finally complained helplessly: "Damn! How do I know! Is it because you are all yellow?"

"Hahahaha! I didn't get to the point, but I got a little closer to the truth. ”

Lu Li laughed and put down his fork and pushed the exhausted plate forward.

"To be precise, they were all influenced by the Chinese cultural circle, and implemented a crucial policy, that is, to distribute land to the peasants, so that the peasants could turn from proletarians to petty bourgeoisie.

When the economy is good, these countries can absorb enough labor from the countryside, and when the economy is bad, they can allow these labor to flow back to the countryside without any additional burden.

To put it simply, the countryside has become the carrier of the industrialization crisis in these countries.

As long as the land rights and interests of the peasants are not infringed upon, there will be no turmoil at the bottom of the entire pyramid social structure, and the country will become extremely stable.

But what about South America in comparison?

Large-scale farms, ranches, and plantations like those in the United States, Canada, and Australia are popular in these countries, and the beneficiaries are large multinational corporations, and 90 percent of the peasants do not even own their own land, so how can they become carriers of industrialization.

If the South American countries want to develop, they first need a thorough agrarian revolution, otherwise everything is illusory. ”

"Distribute land to the peasants? God! Isn't this what Guatemalan President Abandz did in 1954?" Maya cried out.

Lu Li smiled and nodded: "Yes, his idea is very good, but he lacks enough power to support it, so the Americans easily use media propaganda to smear him as a puppet of the Soviet Union, and then effortlessly oust him from power." That's why I said that we need a powerful politician with courage and skill. ”

Maya chewed the vegetable salad tastelessly, and after a full minute, she asked again: "What about you, how are you going to transform the country after you seize power in Venezuela?"

"I, I'm going to turn it into a kingdom of dreams, a veritable kingdom of heaven on earth......"

After saying this meaningful sentence, Lu Li stood up directly and beckoned to Mariana, who had been waiting for a long time: "Let's go, let's go and rescue the trapped girl together, and meet the crazy Doctor Antonio by the way." ”
