"We need more public opinion support!"

In the president's office, Mr. President's voice is slightly louder than before, and he has repeatedly emphasized the need to strengthen the power of public opinion.

"I don't want anyone to smash **** on my window again!"

There is a reason to make Mr. President angry. He is a good old man, at least it seems that way.

He laughs every day. Even if you make him angry, he will not say or do anything excessive, he will only regard your behavior as one of your immaturity.

But this time, he was really angry.

He has a habit.

Most people have habits that they may not even realize. For example, they like to go to the bathroom after getting up, even if they don't really want to go to the bathroom.

Or like to drink a glass of cold water or hot water after eating, ghosts know what they have a reason, but this is a habit.

It takes a long process to develop a habit, until you are used to this habit and can't feel what you are doing, then this is a real habit.

Mr. President also has his own little habit. He likes to look at the scenery outside the window after he gets up in the morning.

When he was a child, he lived in a castle on the outskirts of the manor, and outside the bedroom where he lived was the best place near Buppen.

Every morning, people wake up from the muddle, and open the window--

It is difficult for ordinary people to imagine that kind of comfort!

When the window was opened, the fresh air in the nature was covered with some mist, as if you were in a secret environment.

The water vapor slowly stopped on his face, and the whole person seemed to be sublimated at this moment!

This also allowed him to develop the habit of opening the window when he was in bed together, and insisted on it all the time.

until……

Two days ago, Mr. President woke up from his sleep, his face showed the satisfaction of high-quality sleep. In his pajamas, he walked to the window and opened the window as usual.

The windows of the presidential palace are very magnificent. After all, the president of the Federation lives here, not a clown.

The height of the entire floor is more than three meters, and so are the huge floor-to-ceiling glass windows.

However, these glass windows use very high technology, and it is not difficult to open or close them.

Mr. President opened the glass window and...

It is said that a mass of dark things fell on the ground in front of him. A staff member who was fired yesterday said in private that it fell on his face, but everyone knows that this must be nonsense.

It was a lump of shit, and the person who threw the **** had caught it. He used something similar to a small sling to throw a lump of **** at the presidential palace.

Then the **** happened to fall on the window.

When he opened the window, the **** fell.

During this period, as Pengjieo began to conscript, the Federation also began to enter a state of preparation for war.

Once preparing for war, the entire society should concentrate its efforts on serving the war, such as adjusting the taxation ratio.

The federal government intends to lower the tax threshold to about 60% of the past and increase the tax rate to 75% of the past.

That is to say, a worker who lived in Bupene in the past could earn 420 yuan a month. This salary was about 120 to 170 yuan, which was used to pay various taxes and fees. .

So now, they need to pay taxes ranging from two hundred and forty yuan to about three hundred yuan.

Most of their wages are used to pay taxes, which is unbearable for many people.

Life was already so unsatisfactory. Now that you pay the money, it will be difficult to stick to this life.

People are naturally so angry. They strike, march, demonstrate, and throw their **** at the presidential palace, but this can't change the attitude of Mr. President.

He knocked **** the table, his eyes were not as kind and harsh as before.

"We are facing a war that will change the world. We must make our people realize that if we can't unite in this matter, then once the war breaks out, we will be destroyed."

"And we need to let them know that Penzio is now in a state of war, and all the salaries received by everyone except those necessary for life have been turned over to the treasury!"

"And Gefra, their tax rate is higher than ours, but their people have not complained about anything, but actively cooperated!"

"We need this money, the country needs this money, and the cause of world peace also needs this money."

Someone also put forward some other opinions, "Mr. President, if we levy excessive taxes, what will happen to the lives of the people?"

"What about their emotions?"

"After all, they gave us so much money. Many people are...unacceptable."

The speaker is a cabinet member. Mr. President has been in power for three and a half years. He has passed the initial period of disagreement. In addition, he has just suffered some blows. Now he is full of anger.

"I let you sit in this position to tell me'everything is done, Mr. President', not to tell you what is waiting for you to tell me'I can't do Mr. President'."

"If you feel wronged or difficult to do, you can send me a letter of resignation."

If you are very welcome, actually speaking, this time Mr. President's anger was not entirely due to the **** that almost fell on him.

But... Over the years, every time he wants to do something he wants to do, someone will jump out to embarrass him and stop him.

This made him very upset, he was not a heartless person, and he was deeply angry when he was frustrated in front of capital.

But he is the president. The most important thing for a president is to be able to endure, and to endure... everything will be fine!

This official represented the interests of certain capitalists. He said some very harsh words, and the anger in his heart dissipated a lot in an instant.

Now he understood why people want to be tyrants, dictators, because... this feeling is so cool.

He is not worried that this official will actually submit a letter of resignation, because he is the spokesperson of a certain consortium. He does not stand here on his own behalf, he represents the consortium.

He dared to submit a letter of resignation today, and tomorrow he might have a mental illness and be locked up in a psychiatric hospital, and then disappear silently.

After being reprimanded by Mr. President, the officials flushed, bowed their heads, and were very embarrassed. In the end, they couldn't do anything. They could only say "I see, Mr. President."

Mr. President tidyed up his clothes, and then looked at the people from the Ministry of Finance and the Financial Supervisory Committee. "I have discussed with some people before. This time our strategy needs to be changed."

He glanced at Mr. Truman, who immediately took the topic from Mr. President.

"It's just that simply raising the tax rate is really easy for everyone to feel a little unbearable. We have studied the practices of Gefra and Penzio, and now we have three options."

From one choice to three choices, this is actually a compromise, but at least it is not so ugly.

People began to listen carefully, and Mr. Truman continued.

"First of all, the tax rate will not change. This increase is actually very low compared to the increase in other countries."

"Like Penzio and his allies, they hardly pay people during the war."

"And we not only post, in fact, the post is not too small."

"Then the first option is to subscribe for war bonds. If individuals subscribe for more than 10,000 yuan of war bonds at a time, they will be levied at the non-war tax rate."

"The second option is to send at least two soldiers into the army for training. The tax rate can be reduced, and it will leave them about 40%."

"The third way is to join the wartime work class."

"From now until the end of the war, we will arrange uniform accommodation, uniform work, uniform food, accept militarized management, and carry out efficient production."

"After the war is over, all the money will go into these people's accounts..."

There are three options. The first is to pay a protection fee and subscribe for a war bond of 10,000 yuan at a time to be exempt from the temporary increase in taxes.

Note that this is an individual and does not represent the whole family~www.readwn.com~ But for the current federal social system, it almost represents the whole family, because most families work alone.

Although buying bonds doesn't mean making money, at least it won't lose money very much, but 10,000 yuan in one go is too much, and most families can't afford it.

The second option... is to send your family to serve as a soldier. I am afraid that even fewer people will choose.

This is not a soldier in peacetime, this is a time of war, and war will not know when it will break out!

Once the war breaks out, all the soldiers will be sent to the battlefield.

The First World War seems to have been yesterday. People can see from documentaries and war films that human lives are not worth a penny in war!

People are small, not heroes, and can't even save themselves!

Sending the men in the family to the battlefield is no different from sending them to death, and people will not choose.

As for the third option, militarized management, this can drive freedom advocates crazy, and it is even more impossible for them to choose.

So it seems that all that is left is to pay taxes honestly.

After Mr. Truman spoke for a while, all the gentlemen in the room understood that this is forcing people to pay taxes!

Look, you don't want to pay taxes. Okay, now I'll give you a choice, and there are three at once.

If none of the three are selected and the tax is not paid, then this is not a problem for the federal government.

Sure enough, Mr. Truman added, "If anyone is dissatisfied with these new conditions, let the tax bureau go to them to talk..."

"Mr. President and I have the same attitude. All media, whether they belong to our side, the Conservative Party, the Socialist Party, or some capitalists, must stand on our side and stand on our side at this time. superior!"

"This is not a joke!"
