The so-called democracy and freedom in Europe and the United States are essentially the tyranny of the minority over the majority. Democracy and freedom are just a cover, and they are lies spun by vested interests in order to consolidate their own interests.
Democracy and freedom in southern Africa are essentially the same, but Rockefeller, Stoudemire, Henry, and others do it more covertly than Rockefeller, Morgan, and Carnegie. That's why social conflicts in southern Africa are not as sharp as in the United States.
.
The problem is with Rock and Stoudemire, Henry will get old sooner or later.
When Roque and his generation come to an end, will the next generation in southern Africa and the next generation be able to pay more attention to national interests like Roque and his colleagues?
No one can guarantee it.
Yang Smozi's worries sound reasonable, but in fact they cannot withstand scrutiny.
The disadvantages caused by the two-party system or the multi-party system have been vividly demonstrated in France and Spain. The United Kingdom has a solid foundation and can withstand hardships. Now it looks better.
The problem in the United States is also serious.
The United States in this time and space, due to the rise of southern Africa, has far less economic strength than the United States in another time and space, and its domestic conflicts are naturally far more serious than those in the United States in another time and space.
The key is economics.
With rapid economic development, many contradictions will be covered up and will not be actively exposed.
The current economic situation of the United States is still not as good as that of Southern Africa. It has not yet completely emerged from the Great Depression. It has continued economic confrontation with Southern Africa for many years, and finally ended with the complete surrender of American companies. Ford and Rockefeller did not have capital penetration from Southern Africa, and they were the only ones to remain independent.
Only Morgan is left.
That’s not right. After the Brazilian Civil War, U.S. Steel was forced to accept the conditions of Favalte Steel Group, and Morgan was already infiltrated by southern African capital.
Coupled with the pervasive cultural export from southern Africa, the United States is now riddled with holes.
Yang Smuts failed to convince Rock, and Rock failed to convince Yang Smuts.
They are all decades old, and their views are deeply ingrained and cannot be changed easily.
Alvin moved quickly.
Yang Smuts opposed the merger of parties, but the People's Party and the Progressive Party welcomed it.
The reason is also very simple. The support rate of the Liberal Party is too high, and the support rate of the People's Party and the Progressive Party continues to decline. If this continues, even if the People's Party and the Progressive Party do not merge with the Liberal Party, they will gradually die out sooner or later.
The political structure of Southern Africa is winner-take-all. When the Liberal Party is the dominant party, the People's Party and the Progressive Party have no chance of governing. They might as well merge with the Liberal Party, which might give them a chance.
Owen said that the ideal situation is for the ruling party to govern on stage and the opposition party to supervise from the stage. As the leader of the ruling party, he cannot understand the mood of the opposition party.
Especially opposition parties that have no hope of gaining the qualifications to govern.
The People's Party is an opposition party that has no hope of gaining the right to govern.
When Southern Africa first gained the qualification for autonomy, that was when the People's Party was closest to power.
That was nearly 30 years ago.
The two founders of the People's Party, Louis Botha and Jan Smuts, one died and the other joined the Liberal Party. The People's Party has now completely sunk, with only 16,000 registered members left in the city of Bloemfontein.
There is only one pitiful seat left in the parliament.
"So, even if the People's Party runs for election, it will not get any chance. Instead, you will have to merge with the Liberal Party so that you can use your abilities." Alvin personally came to Bloemfontein to visit the People's Party leader Steve
Botha.
Steve Botha is Louis Botha's nephew and runs a timber company in Bloemfontein. The decline of the People's Party has nothing to do with Steve Botha's ability.
The current situation of the People's Party can be said to be a microcosm of the current situation of the Boers in southern Africa.
At the end of the Second Boer War, the total Boer population once reached nearly one million, which was larger than the British population.
If general elections are held in Southern Africa, there is no doubt that the People's Party will become the ruling party in Southern Africa.
Rock's crazy immigration completely changed the demographic structure of southern Africa.
The Boers' demographic advantage was lost in just five years. The British and Chinese formed the Liberal Party and defeated the People's Party in the first general election in southern Africa. From then on, the People's Party went from bad to worse.
In southern Africa today, the self-identified Boers number no more than 300,000, and they have completely become a minority ethnic group.
"Even if we merge with the Liberal Party, no one is willing to listen to the voices of us Boers." Steve Botha had mixed emotions.
If the People's Party can persist, then there is still hope, and there may be a time for a turnaround in the future.
If it merges with the Liberal Party, the People's Party will completely disappear, and even the last hope of the Boers will disappear.
"How do you know if you don't try? When the People's Party existed, it was a competitor with the Liberal Party. If the two parties merged, the Liberal Party would also represent the interests of the Boers -" Alvin is sure of victory. Even if Steve Botha disagrees, Alvin
Vin was also able to force Steve Botha's consent through other means.
The method is very simple. Just vote. The minority obeys the majority. As long as the majority of PPP people agree to merge the two parties, it will be useless for Steve Botha to oppose it.
Of course, Steve Botha can also voluntarily quit the People's Party and form a new party.
But southern Africa has strict rules about forming a party, unless Steve Botha can get 50,000 signatures.
The People's Party now has only 16,000 members left, and Steve Botha's dream of obtaining the consent of 50,000 people is a dream.
Therefore, the situation of Britain and France that quit the party at every turn and start a new one is absolutely impossible to happen in southern Africa.
"With the merger of the two parties, will the Liberal Party be able to pay attention to the interests of the Boers?" Steve Botha sneered. The practices of the Southern African federal government in recent years have broken the hearts of the Boers.
Of course, this is also because the Boers are constantly seeking death.
If the Boers honestly accept the status quo, they will not be suppressed by the federal government. At least in Orange State, the interests of the Boers can be guaranteed.
Now even in Orange State, the Boers have become a minority. Do you remember those farms purchased by the Orange Agricultural Development Company? Now those farms have all been sold to the new immigrants who immigrated to Orange in the past ten years.
As for Orange Agricultural Development Corporation, it had served its purpose and was deregistered three years ago.
"Think about it carefully and don't reject my sincerity." Alvin's expression turned cold. Is it necessary to not see the coffin without crying?
Steve Botha is actually not as tough as he appears.
Politicians are always willing to pay whatever they ask for. Steve Botha hopes to get Alvin's promise so that his own interests can be better protected.
It's a pity that Steve Botha doesn't understand Alvin.
Alvin is not a character who can be manipulated by others and does not accept any threats. In this regard, he is even tougher than Rock.
Steve Botha didn't expect that Alvin's revenge would come so quickly.
A week later, Steve Botha received a notice from the Bloemfontein City Government that the operating rights of his timber company needed to be approved. Before the approval was passed, Steve Botha's timber company had to stop everything.
business activities.
This cost Steve Botha his life.
The lumber company is Steve Botha's family's only source of income.
After Steve Botha received the notice, he immediately drove to the Bloemfontein City Hall to demand an explanation.
Steve Botha's lumber company continued to operate the company until 1941, and the procedures before that were completely legal and did not require approval.
What Steve Botha didn't expect was that his friends were very busy at work and had no time to see him. A third secretary from the city government came forward to receive Steve Botha.
"Sorry Mr. Botha, this is a requirement of the federal government. Starting from this year, timber business qualifications will be reviewed and approved annually." The secretary was businesslike.
I forgot to mention that it is already 1936, time flies so fast.
Southern Africa is actually rich in timber resources. However, the federal government has extremely strict requirements on timber logging, making it unprofitable to operate timber business in Southern Africa. Timber merchants in Southern Africa are actually second-tier dealers. Their main business is from
Timber is sold abroad to southern Africa.
The same goes for Steve Botha, whose company's main business is trafficking timber from Congo to southern Africa.
After the Brazilian Civil War, Steve Botha expanded his business to Brazil. With Brazil's rich timber resources, Steve Botha made huge profits.
Unexpectedly, just a few days after the good days, the federal government——
No, Steve Botha also has friends in the federal government. I haven't heard of such a thing.
"Oh, the federal government requires states to regulate timber operations and approve them once a year. This is the regulation of our Bloemfontein municipal government." the secretary explained in detail.
Steve Botha's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
Just say, these are rules specially made for me.
Steve Botha really hates it at the moment.
If the People's Party can win more seats, not to mention the state assembly, it can get more seats in the city council, and Steve Botha will not have to suffer from this cowardice.
After all, the arms couldn't twist the thighs.
Wanting to understand this truth, Steve Botha took the initiative to find Alvin.
Alvin has left Bloemfontein for Cape Town.
Cape Town is the stronghold of the Progressive Party.
Compared with the declining People's Party, the Progressive Party can barely survive. At least in Cape State, the Progressive Party can still compete with the Liberal Party.
Of course, compared with previous years, the Progressive Party is getting weaker and weaker. Now the ruling party in Cape State is also the Liberal Party. Governor Jerome Walton and Speaker of the State Assembly Mike Pauley are both Liberals.
.
"The key to annexing the Progressive Party lies not with the Progressives, but with Mr. Cecil Rhodes -" Jerome Walton pointed out that the Progressive Party was founded by old Cecil Rhodes.
Stoudemire reorganized the Progressive Party a few years ago, and the Rhodes family still has a great influence on the Progressive Party.
"It doesn't matter, I'll do Uncle Cecil's work -" Alvin was so confident about Stoudemire.
ps: At the request of brothers, the speed of time is accelerated. According to this rhythm, World War II will break out in three days——
