Chapter 662 Soft Money
As early as last year's speculative stock market crash, Yang Jing had already realized the importance and urgency of establishing a political team under his control in the United States.
In fact, it is not only the United States, but the governments of Western capitalist countries are institutions that serve the rich. In capitalist countries, especially in developed capitalist countries, their governments often use 80% of their resources to serve the big companies and wealthy people, and the remaining 20% of their resources will serve 80% of the ordinary people who occupy 80% of their country.
The 28th rule still applies to the governments of these developed capitalist countries.
Yang Jing from Europe did not think about establishing his own political power, but the United States would never let him go. How great are the Koch brothers in later generations? The whole world knows this, but whether it is the Republican or the Democratic Party, they are helpless against the arrogant Koch brothers. No matter how hard the Koch brothers cannot control the presidential election, their power in Congress is not as good as that of the president.
Yang Jing, who has more memories of thirty years than everyone in this world, knows very well that the Koch brothers have proved with practical actions that their approach is extremely correct.
Since the Koch brothers can do this, why can't they do this themselves?
Starting from Bush, who is about to win this year's presidential election, to Zipperton, Bush Jr., and the Guanhai brothers, Yang Jing is very clear about the candidate for the US president in the next 30 years. As for the brainless Twitter president, if Yang Jing hadn't been concerned about the paradox of time and space, he would have eliminated this guy long ago.
The current Twitter president is just a small real estate businessman in New York, and it won't take long to go into a bankruptcy crisis. If this guy hadn't been thick-skinned enough and had a shameless convincing the bank that gave him the loan, his real estate company would have gone bankrupt.
However, a Twitter president cannot affect Yang Jing's layout.
Since he has more than thirty years of memory, Yang Jing has an unparalleled advantage in choosing a president. The power of foresight is not just a joke. When others are still racking their brains for the presidential candidate to win, Yang Jing can put all his resources on this person early, which is the real success of following the dragon.
For example, Mr. Bush, the current current.
Since last year, Mike Aller has followed Yang Jing's orders to establish several consulting companies across the federal government, and then through these consulting companies, he provided sufficient resources for Bush.
The United States' Federal Campaign Law prohibits private or enterprises from providing excessive donations to presidential candidates, but there are policies and countermeasures. Americans have long developed many ways to avoid this law in the four-year presidential election, thus making the cost of each presidential election higher and higher.
When Kennedy ran for president in 1960, he only spent 100,000 US dollars in total, but after the new century, the US presidential election cost soared to more than one billion US dollars. Where did this money come from? If it were according to the Federal Campaign Law, even a presidential election would not have been able to have such a high cost. But, a presidential election consumed so much money.
The "hard money" donated by voters under the Federal Campaign Act cannot be exceeded, but Americans are not fools. They have come up with various ways to donate "soft money" to presidential candidates. Among them, this kind of consulting company is the most effective and common method.
Although Yang Jing has not participated in the US presidential election, he knows how to reasonably avoid the restrictions of the Federal Campaign Act. It is no exaggeration to say that if Yang Jing is willing, he can provide more than 100 million US dollars in funds for this year's US presidential election without violating the Federal Campaign Act.
Everyone knows that if you want to win the campaign, funds are the most well-deserved first element. Although you may not be able to win the campaign if you have enough funds, you will definitely not be able to win the campaign if you don’t have enough funds. It can be said that in the presidential election, whoever has the advantage in the campaign will definitely have the advantage in the situation of the presidential candidate. This is undoubtedly one point!
You should know that in the 1988 presidential election in the United States, candidates from both parties only spent $21.07 million in campaign funds. If Yang Jing provided more sufficient campaign funds for Democratic candidate Dukakis through various consulting companies at this time, it is hard to say whether Bush can win the final election.
But Yang Jing would not do such a move. All he had to do was follow the trend behind the scenes and push it out. It would be enough for Bush to accept his love. Don’t forget that Bush’s son, Bush Jr., is also the president of the United States!
Clever players never care about temporary gains and losses. They often win more victories for themselves through longer-term layout.
What Yang Jing is doing now is to be a clever player.
Although he doesn't understand some specific details, his men have many people who are proficient in these details. He just needs to stand at a high place to command these men and point them in a big direction. This is how a skilled player with a high-level view has always done it.
Of course, the final vote is now very close. With the help of Yang Jing in the early stage, Bush has established enough advantages. As long as this advantage is maintained, everyone knows that there is no suspense that the current candidate for Vice President of the Reagan administration will win the throne of the 41st President of the United States.
At this time, no matter from any aspect, Bush Sr. must express enough gratitude and respect to Cole Smith. You should know that in this campaign, the "soft money" from Ky Investment Fund alone accounted for more than half of Bush's campaign funds!
That's why this invitation was made.
Hearing Yang Jing's promise, Mike Aller smiled and said, "Boss, don't worry, I will arrange a meeting between you as soon as possible."
Yang Jing nodded lightly and asked, "What's the third thing?"
Mike Aller frowned this time and said, "The third thing is not good news."
Yang Jing did not say a word, but signaled Mike Aller to continue.
"The third thing is that there is something about Rudy Giuliani."
Hearing Mike Aller speak of this name, Yang Jing's brows frowned. He thought for a while and asked in a low voice: "Is that guy unwilling to compromise?"
