Chapter 1646 Chimps of God TM

In general, when an industry is in crisis, people will expect serious reforms.

Even if there are other problems with poor luck in addition to obvious poor management, people usually assume that if the company needs government assistance, the top management must be replaced.

When some countries have financial problems, the U.S. Treasury Department has been advocating such principles for many years, and implementing it directly or through the influence of the International Monetary Fund. Because this is wise economic management and common sense.

However, when it comes to the United States, the situation is not like this. Since the crisis broke out in the fall of 2008, most bank executives have remained at ease. The attitude towards other senior personnel, risk control and risk has also not changed much. Why is this happening?

The key to the problem is that the largest banks in the United States are "too big to let them go bankrupt", and more importantly, bankers understand this.

In this way, executives will operate in extreme risky ways for the interests of banks and their own interests. After all, huge global financial crises rarely occur continuously, but this lure of huge profits will always bring trouble. The IMF's more than 50 years of experience clearly shows this.

The war between rational public policy advocates and unregulated large banks has never ended, but bankers have always dominated.

This time, Ao Guanhai will put shackles on them, put them in cages, narrow their territory, and cut off their hunting claws. It is conceivable that these Wall Street giants will never agree.

However, if Aoguanhai really wants to toughen against the six largest American banks, I am afraid he may not have the courage. To know that their total assets exceed 60% of the US GDP, we have to admit that this is an unprecedented financial monopoly in modern America.

As early as more than 100 years ago, Roosevelt pointed out that the main problem of excessive concentration of economic power is that it will replace political power, which is contrary to the democratic tradition.

To use two idioms to describe the current American banking industry, it is big but not big but not big!

The biggest Wall Street bankers have as strong influence on American political and financial regulatory policies as ever. And political leaders who are willing to start solving this issue have unfortunately not yet appeared.

As for Ao Guanhai, who was excited and speechless on the TV and said, "I'm sorry, my voice was blocked by anger." He was definitely not the right person.

"They need to take some time to get out of New York because... If you go to North Dakota, or Iowa, or Arkansas, the locals will be ecstatic about earning $670,000 a year and it doesn't include bonuses, then I think they will understand why the people are frustrated."

"Puchi--"

"Our president is really cute. Does he want those people on Wall Street to feel the suffering of the people?" Andy sneered. I don't know who is naive. Those unemployed people on Wall Street are living even worse now. As for the rich, bankers will go to those places for vacation...

"No matter what, at this time, the people on Wall Street were still busy giving bonuses, which was really a bit unreasonable. This was really embarrassing, and it was natural that he was angry." Ivana sat aside, handed Andy dinner, shook her head and sighed.

Andy shrugged without comment while cutting the beef while putting it into his mouth.

On TV, Ao Guanhai used "unable to maintain" some of the anti-terrorism policies of the last president, in response to former Vice President Cheney's criticism of him a few days ago.

"Mr. President, how do you view Andy Smith's view on the New Deal..." The host of "60 Minutes" still asked this question that was most discussed and very sensitive at the moment.

Andy, who was feasting, stopped moving with a knife and fork in his hand, chewing food in his mouth and watching TV with his eyes. Ivana also turned her head to look at TV with interest, waiting for the serious expression and pondering how the president would answer.

"...First of all, make sure we have done this plan well, and it will take a little longer than we want. Of course, this makes us vulnerable to criticism. However, the American people chose me and I did this job well.

Andy Smith, everyone knows that he is a genius, we are good friends, and some of his opinions are very constructive..."

"bite--"

"Tsk tsk..."

Andy immediately cut his knife, picked up the goblet, took a sip of ice wine, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

When Ivana heard Ao Guanhai's answer, she smiled and turned to look at Andy and smiled: "He said you are still good friends. It seems that sometimes to win the respect of others, we must first oppose him."

"I'm very happy to hear him say this." Andy showed his big white teeth and smiled happily.

Ivana shook her head and laughed, "Wall Street's Peach Se scandal, plus his interview, this contest is probably just the beginning. Dear, what role are you going to play in it?"

"My mission has been completed, so I'll just wait to watch the show now."

As soon as Andy finished speaking, the cell phone that was placed beside him began to ring. He looked at the caller ID. His hand, holding a knife and fork, shrugged his shoulders, and continued to eat dinner with no intention of answering the phone.

The next morning, Andy yawned, took a copy of the New York Post from Ivana, who was blushing, energetic, wearing a nightgown and incredible expression, and asked unexpectedly: "Dear, what have you seen?"

"Unbelievable, are the editors of the Post crazy? You'd better read it yourself, they're in big trouble!"

Andy raised his eyebrows and opened the newspaper unconsciously. What caught his eye was a comic. In the comic, two policemen stood next to a chimpanzee lying in a pool of blood. One of them held a smoke-filled gun in his hand. The comic read: "They have to find someone else to draft the next stimulus plan now."

......

A black line appeared on Andy's forehead, and he opened his eyes wide, looking at the comic that was obviously reflecting the new president, Ao Guanhai. This was blatantly "revealing the scars of racism", shooting a chimpanzee, damn it, implicitly instigating assassination!

"fxxk! It's just a group of pig teammates!"

Andy reached out to cover half of his face, smiled bitterly and cursed, "Now, the economic problems are completely thrown aside, and his vision is completely shifted to racial discrimination. The editor-in-chief of this newspaper is definitely the "rescue" invited by Ao Guanhai!

It's simply a chimpanzee of gods!

No matter how you explain it, this comic is extremely provocative, and it can easily allow readers to associate the Aoguanhai with the "black monkey" with a discriminatory flavor.

OK, the black guy is going to get upset again!
