Chapter 81: The Campbell Reform(2/2)

Secretary of the Finance Minister Herbert Henry Asquis: "These problems have long arisen. In order to solve domestic economic problems, the previous government lowered the tax rates of industrial and commercial enterprises twice.

If it is not rejected by parliament, they are even ready to launch an export subsidy program to increase the market competitiveness of the company.

But these can only be treated with symptoms. If we want to truly solve the problem, we still have to rely on our own efforts.

We have to admit that we are already behind in many fields. Shinra's products are everywhere on the street. If you compare one with similar products produced in China, our company is really not doing well in terms of cost-effectiveness.

The trouble now is that domestic capitalists lack interest in technological innovation, especially in the field of mechanical equipment, and lack innovative spirit.

What capitalists want is to end free trade, restart trade barriers, and protect the market by relying on tariffs.

Of course, they are not so direct. They are called: adopting trade barriers to temporarily protect the casualty market in the country and gaining time for corporate scientific and technological innovation.

However, we all know that with the enthusiasm of domestic companies to invest in the scientific research field, this situation may not change in the next century."

No matter what policy is, it is ultimately a benefit. Because of interests, the British government established a free trade system; also because of interests, the British government now has to consider termination of free trade.

Even Asquith was very disgusted with all this and felt that these uninspiring guys were borers from Britain, so they had to carefully consider their opinions.

Seeing the atmosphere tense, Prime Minister Campbell waved his hand and said, "These issues are the reality we will face in the coming days.

The fact that Britain has come to this point is the result of these problems. Reality tells us that Britain has reached the point where it has to reform.

If this continues, let alone compete with the Holy Roman Empire, the social conflicts in China alone can ruin half of our lives.

You can consider protecting the market, but you must carefully consider how to protect, what step to protect, and what impact it will have.

These problems are all a concern. Once we adopt trade barriers, other countries will inevitably follow up, and our import and export trade will definitely be affected.
