Sometimes, these puppies throw their shoes indiscriminately. If it's just like that, the key is that there are several dog stuff and Hong Kong feet in them. Once the shoes are taken off, the smell... makes you want to die. .
People almost couldn't help but wonder if they were an undercover internal annihilator sent by the undead, who planned to use their feet to kill all the elites who were flashing.
Therefore, whether in the Caribbean or in Akaderin, he shunned that kind of place.
National Security Adviser James, Dorreny hesitated when hearing the name of the parliament.
They are a group of consultants who are specially responsible for making suggestions and formulating various political programs, bills, plans, etc. for the president, and they have to deal with parliament.
It is common to go to the parliament to interpret bills, receive consultations, and listen in. For the president's staff, this is a tiresome chore.
But... But if his plan of conscription and expansion wants to become a reality, the parliament must pass.
In the government of the Republic, although President Brad is the head of state, political axe, and commander-in-chief of the armed forces, all major bills, plans, appointments and removals of high-ranking officials and justices...etc. must be passed by the House of Representatives and Senate. More than half of them can pass. This is called system. Carrying out this process is the embodiment of spirit.
But at the same time, I have to admit that the whole process is very bureaucratic and inefficient to the horrible level.
A bill is initiated by the political axe and must be sent to the Senate and the House of Representatives for separate discussion. Any member who wants to speak can express his opinions on the bill.
Normally, it’s okay, but it’s unlucky when you run into that kind of expressive.
This group of guys can talk for three to five hours at a time. It's almost as annoying as the flies flying around on their faces when they sleep. People can't wait to pull out his intestines and wrap his head. Circle, then squeeze hard...
But no matter how bored you are, you have to listen patiently, because this is a sacred right conferred by the constitution. If anyone dares to obstruct, he is the enemy of the republic, an independent man, a civilian thief, an ambitious man, and he has to put a rope around his neck. Then hang on the street lamp and swing...
In this way, like handing in the bill on Monday and discussing it until Friday is not over, and then adjourn the meeting for two days. After two days, if the congressman who is playing too high forgets the bill about this, it is common. Some things, after all, members of parliament are big men, and they have handled too many motions.
No, I have to start all over again, which makes people feel painful.
Moreover, even though the discussion was passed, I thought it was over?
too naive!
First of all, we must first hold a vote on this bill.
After the vote is passed, the bill will be voted in the parliament, and then the Senate and House of Representatives will vote again, and then signed by the President, this is considered to be officially effective.
It takes half a month to complete a set of procedures.
Once the vote is not passed, the political axe is sent back, and the revision is done again from the beginning. This process can drive people crazy.
Seeing that his colleagues turned upset when they mentioned the council, Doreny felt very worried, but he had to do his job. Now he confidently said: "Our councillors are bastards...Bah, baah, too serious. a little.
However, I think it is a matter of military affairs and for the future of the Semitic people. Members of Congress will not be so foolish, Your Majesty. "
President Brad also nodded silently. Since he took office, there have been many bills released, such as establishing political axe departments, appointing officials, enacting decrees, and dealing with Parliament for a long time.
Although those guys were wordy and wordy, in the end they were still happy to cooperate.
The bills initiated by the president passed smoothly. Therefore, although I felt a headache for the in the parliament, in his opinion, this is actually just a face organization. In order to find something to do for the idlers, send them A salary, let them not make trouble.
And sometimes, watching their dogs bite each other is really a pleasing pastime.
The military expansion bill may be a bit more troublesome. After all, it is considered the top priority of the republican political axe. If the trouble is severe, it will give them a little bit more benefit, and I believe it will eventually be passed!
President Brad thought about it for a moment, and then he secretly said in his heart: I have to do it myself, and military power must be firmly held in my hands.
Thinking of this, he said in a deep voice: "Doreny, make your report an official bill, and I will submit it to the parliament myself."
"Yes, Your Majesty the President." Dorreny agreed with excitement, but his face changed again and cautiously said: "However, Your Majesty, do you want the Prophet to meet Miss Fiona?"
President Brad was stunned for two seconds, and then reacted. He meant he wanted to inform Lorraine himself.
He thought for a moment: This is his own internal affairs.
When he waved his hand, he said, "The council will tell her if it accepts it."
Doreny nodded and said, "I will do it at once."
Soon this military expansion plan was completed and sent to the Senate and House of Representatives at the same time.
As soon as the case came out, it immediately caused an uproar. Members of the Senate and House of Representatives took this as a top priority and took it seriously.
No matter when, military power is always the most important thing. This is the foundation of all privileges such as whether everyone can continue to be the boss, eat and drink with public funds, unspoken rules for female interns... etc.
Because of the big deal, and to be cautious, the members of the Senate and House of Representatives decided to invite President Brad to personally explain the important surname of the bill.
Speaking seriously, this is the first time Brad has stepped onto the gate of Parliament since he occupied Akadrien.
The Senate and House of Representatives occupied two palaces of the imperial palace as their meeting venues, and the newly renovated parliament hall was magnificent.
The entrance is the red carpet with a golden edge, and the front door is the flag of the Semitic Republic the size of the entire wall.
The floor is shining, the marble is as bright as a mirror, and the surrounding walls are also yellow marble, with huge and beautiful oil paintings hung.
On the top of the hall is a huge crystal lamp, which is like a dream when lit at night.
The corners of President Brad's mouth moved, he was not happy, and secretly said: The grandchildren of the parliament too dare to spend money, right? It's more luxurious than my presidential palace, which is simply arrogant!
How can Congress be more luxurious than the presidential palace of the head of state? This group of MPs must take care of it!
With a stomach of dissatisfaction, Brad walked into the venue of the House of Representatives. A huge hall was crowded with people from both houses.
The doorman reported in a loud voice: "The President of the Semitic Republic is here, all stand up!"
The members noisily pushed away their chairs and stood up.
President Brad walked up to the podium facing the congressmen and sat down on the seat specially designed for the president.
Although the staff of that group held the real power, their official official identity was very reluctant, only sitting on the benches on the side under the podium.
Originally the position on the podium could only be standing and speaking, except for the president, who could sit.
It wasn't until President Brad sat down that the lawmakers sat down with a loud cry.
The Speaker of the House of Representatives knocked on the wooden hammer and said loudly: "The meeting will begin now."
The loud sound from the high-priced imported loudspeaker, the trembling hall hummed, and the venue instantly became quiet.
In accordance with the procedures of the meeting, the speaker proclaimed the section according to the text, saying: "Now I have your Majesty the President speak."
President Brad adjusted the position of the microphone and took out his speech.
He cleared his throat and said in a loud voice: "Your distinguished congressmen, good afternoon, as we all know, our business is growing and our republic is becoming prosperous, but under the appearance of prosperity, there is a huge crisis hidden... "
President Brad wrapped up Dorenny's remarks and replaced them with his own rhetoric. It took half an hour to explain the army expansion plan in detail.
Sure enough, many Members nodded frequently in the seat opposite, and they were obviously moved in favor of his plan.
President Brad felt relieved for a while: It seemed that the problem was not big, and he could vote for approval today, but the "Declaration of Human Rights" was passed by all votes in a day.
Thinking of this, President Brad smiled triumphantly. This is done, and it is also a great achievement of his first president, which is enough to last forever.
"Next, I would like to ask Members, the Senate first." The Speaker of the Senate said sternly, without emotion, and he did not know what he thought.
President Brad cast his lips in dissatisfaction and helplessness, saying: "Just announce the first round of voting, and debate. It's really troublesome.
However, debate is a procedure stipulated by the Constitution, and Lord Lorraine always emphasizes procedural justice.
Thinking of this, Brad couldn't help but secretly slandered. The justice of this procedure was obviously something he didn't have to follow.
At this point, the questioning has officially started.
First, a few senators came up and pretended to ask a few questions. The first one was naturally the little brother of the President. These senators were all Caribbean and could be regarded as the little brothers of President Brad.
In the Senate, the Caribs are already dominant.
These Senates are not so much asking questions as they are preaching the benefits of army expansion, and only asking about the advantages of army expansion.
After these people got down, an old man with a tight face stood up in the crowd.
Seeing him, Brad couldn't help but become more cautious, just because the old man was Hawkes, the former commander of the Janissaries, and now a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, and military-related issues cannot bypass him.
Hawkes walked to the position opposite to the president in the front row, first nodded in greeting, and said, "Your Majesty the President."
President Brad responded politely, saying: "Your Excellency Senator."
Hawkes stared at President Brad and said solemnly: "Excuse me, the president must, have you calculated the military expenditures required for the expansion of 300,000 troops?"
President Brad was taken aback and flipped through the documents in his hand. Dorreny was well prepared and wrote clearly at the door. President Brad read as follows: "The recruitment cost is three million, including military camp construction and miscellaneous expenses. Military pay needs to spend about one million yuan a month."
Hawkes nodded and said, "Does your Majesty the President know the annual expenses of our republic?
Let me do the calculations for you. For the coalition army of 500,000 troops, we need to provide 600,000 yuan a month for the subsidy, and another 150,000 yuan for the labor and military expenses.
The Free Army’s 100,000 people require 500,000 monthly military payments. At the peak of its combat expenditure, it will cost over one million a month. Even if there is no combat mission, it will cost about 200,000 yuan per month for training.
The political axe organization currently has 170,000 civil servants and a monthly salary of 600,000, which does not count as other financial meals. In the future, this number will expand substantially. Office expenses alone cost 200,000 yuan per month.
Just to maintain the operation of the political axe army, we have to spend 2.2 million gold coins every month. If we add the expansion of the army, we need to pay more than 3 million gold every month.
This does not include public service expenditures. After calculating, we need to spend at least 100 million gold coins this year. "
President Brad frowned and said, "This number is not large. Please don’t forget, Senator. The old policy has taken away 300 million gold coins from us in a year. Even if we implement a tax reduction policy, the republican policy. At least 100 million gold coins a year, enough to support the military expansion plan."
Hawkes sneered and said: "But so far, our republic has only collected 22 million taxes. This is due to the overload of Director Leo.
It is not enough for political axe expenditures and needs to borrow from the coalition forces. "
When Leo's name was mentioned, a burst of laughter broke out in the venue. Director Leo's conscientious tax collection won unanimous praise from all the Semitic.
President Brad was speechless for a while, why didn't he care much about the financial situation of the political axe, because Fioni and Leo took care of it. These greasy things...Bah, these little things, Uncle Brad doesn't care at all.
Hawkes slowly said: "I think it is too early to expand the army. Of course, it is necessary to expand the army, but we must wait until our fiscal and taxation situation improves."
Many congressmen nodded in agreement, thinking that Hawkes made a lot of sense.
President Brad shook his head and said earnestly: "Precautions are necessary, and it will be too late to prepare when needed. In the next few decades, our political axe must face the challenge from the stubborn forces.
As for the funding issue, after the integration of localities is completed, there will be a substantial increase, which is really insufficient. I will think of a solution. "
Hawkes also shook his head and said, "I reserve my opinion."
When he sat back, the meeting room became quiet for a while, and everyone was thinking in secret.
President Brad thinks this is a good thing~EbookFREE.me~ No one asks, it means they almost accepted it.
At this time, a thin-faced congressman in the front row rolled his eyes and stood up and asked loudly: "My Majesty the President, have you communicated with the coalition forces on the issue of military expansion?"
As soon as this statement came out, the congressmen in the venue immediately reacted: Yes, this matter actually has nothing to do with the Senate and House of Representatives, and it is not a matter of Lord Lorraine to expand or expand the army. This expansion plan is probably instructed by Lord Lorraine.
The more you think about it, the more reasonable it becomes. Isn’t the expansion of the army just a preparation for the withdrawal of mankind?
As for the small amount of money to build the army, Lord Lorraine was not in the eyes.
The matter decided by Sir Alex Ferguson, who dared to oppose the food and support, thinks that he will live longer?
Everyone just waited for President Brad to say ‘yes’ and then voted yes.
President Brad said without hesitation: "No!"
The tone is decisive.
Everyone was taken aback for a moment.
"This is our own affairs in the Semitic Republic, and I don't think the coalition forces will oppose it." President Brad vowed, but he decided not to use Lord Lorraine's hands to make this matter beautiful. Yes, let my daughter and Lorraine take a look at his abilities as a president.
Also let his officials and parliamentarians know that President Brad has the final say in this place.
The atmosphere in the meeting room suddenly changed, the congressmen moved, and everyone fixedly looked at him.
President Brad was uncomfortable being stared at by everyone, and felt very weird in his heart. It felt like...what did he say wrong?
At this time, there was a deep laughter in the conference hall. The congressmen looked different, some laughed, some admired, some regretted, and more shook their heads and sighed.
"I object!"
