Diao Er's duty. There is not much controversy, it is nothing more than citizens’ rights in the general constitution. Abide by the constitution and laws, safeguard national security, etc. The program does not stipulate that senators have an obligation to perform military service.
Instead, another article was added, that is, the elders are obliged to take up arms to defend the crossing group when needed.
At this time, Lin Chuanqing asked to speak. He proposed a motion: requesting that the senators' right to bear arms be written into the common program as a sacrosanct right.
"Weapons are the last resort for senators to resist tyranny and defend their rights. No one or any institution has the right to seize or restrict the power of senators to hold and use weapons. Otherwise, it is intended to be dictatorial!" Lin Chuanqing said loudly, "I demand that this be Article is included in the "Common Program".
Most of the attendees didn't know why Lin Chuanqing specifically raised this point and made such a fuss about writing the request into the "Common Program". Now, doesn't everyone carry a gun? A pistol is never left for everyone.
Of course, the North American branch and others knew the significance of Lin Chuanqing's proposal. Only if the public holds weapons and enjoys the right to use weapons, the state organs will not be able to monopolize violence, giving the people the possibility to resist tyranny. This is typical American democratic thinking.
This motion immediately received strong support from the North American branch and firearms enthusiasts. Since there was no objection, the motion was quickly passed and this article was included in the Communist Party's platform.
The only dispute arises over the tax provisions. The program clearly stipulates that senators have the obligation to pay taxes. Some people rose up in opposition, believing that this would cause the future government to use taxation to recruit and rob senators. The supporters believed that the political and economic power held by future senators would be unimaginable. If the power of tax exemption is still given to the elders, a huge amount of wealth will be deposited in the elder class, which will be extremely harmful to the stability of the entire social economy and social order.
The pros and cons have once again entered into a debate on this issue. Those who support taxation are mainly finance and finance professionals represented by Wo Fan, while those who oppose it are diverse and include everyone.
For the masses, most people believe that in order to ensure the long-term stability of the empire, the tax obligations that the senators should bear cannot be exempted. But they are worried because of their experience in another time and space that “something often has a noble and reasonable purpose at the beginning, but in the end it becomes a means of gathering.
The tax debate lasted for a long time, and finally Yifan proposed a compromise clause. It stipulates that senators enjoy national treatment in indirect taxes, but direct taxes levied on senators must be reviewed by the Senate, one tax at a time. Only the inheritance tax exemption approved at the First General Assembly remained unchanged: half of the shares held by the Traversing Group were nationalized after the death of the patriarch.
When the discussion on the rights and obligations of the elders was about to end, Du Bian suddenly asked to speak. Ma Jia thought, I don't know what this person's words are.
Du Sou walked up to the podium with a particularly firm and powerful step. His waistcoat was always worn through his uniform. Du Bian, who appeared with a masculine, proletarian appearance, was actually wearing a fitted women's jacket and his hair was neatly combed. , a colorful card was stuck on her face, and her face seemed to be lightly powdered and lipstick applied. If you look carefully, you can see a bit of feminine charm.
"Comrades," she spoke out of habit, and as soon as the hammer on her waistcoat hit, she corrected herself, "I'm sorry, I made a mistake. I propose that among the powers of the senators, associations, parades, and demonstrations should be included. Freedom." This proposal caused a wave of waves among the attendees. This kind of power is so cliché that no one takes it seriously. The common platform drawn up by the drafting group? There are only freedoms of speech, press, assembly, and association, but the latter two have been deleted.
The explanation of why “demonstration” was deleted is because the senators do not need the power to make such demands: since every senator has a place in the Senate, he or she can just propose his or her group’s demands directly in the Senate. , there is absolutely no need to use the method of ordinary people directly expressing their demands.
But in fact, it's not. The original intention of the Law Club was to use this method to eliminate the possibility of members of the public engaging in street politics. Dong Shiye reminded Ma Jia that the possibility of slipping through was extremely slim, and even if he could slip through, I'm afraid it would have to be included in the formal constitution in a few years. But Ma Jia decided to give it a try.
"At least we can eliminate the possibility of engaging in street politics in the first few years of our group's development. After these few years, when the stall has grown, no one is interested in this stuff." Ma Jia sighed, "The conditions in the first few years It is limited, and the public is particularly easy to be incited.”
Of course Du Shou knew that the drafting team had done a lot of research on this issue in its original defensive reply to the inquirer. She pointed out that most constitutions in the world list "demonstrations" as the basic rights of citizens, and cross-border groups should not be an exception. Powers are powerful and it is wrong to want them.
Du Shou's tone was very calm, and her words did not use the habit of quoting scriptures or listing large numbers. It was completely different from her sharp words in meetings and other public places in the past, which made Ma Jia secretly puzzled.
, the Senate is not in session every day, it always has adjournments, and based on the situation of our cross-border group, more and more comrades will be dispatched to various places in the future, and they will stay in Lingao There are fewer and fewer comrades, and there is a limit to the number of people who can convene a general meeting to pass effective resolutions. This means," Du Bian emphasized, "the Senate can only be convened on limited days of the year. On ordinary days, we cannot wait even a minute to protect the legitimate rights and interests of our people."
People in time travel were originally not interested in Du Bian's words, thinking that she was going to talk nonsense about doctrine or talk about the protection of women's rights. However, these words made many people open their eyes. That's right! If Du Shou hadn't brought this up, it would have slipped by! There was a buzz of discussion in the venue.
Cheng Mo had been waiting for this moment. He immediately raised his hand and shouted: "I second the proposal!" Then many people also raised their hands. Ma Jia noticed that Shan Liang raised his hand with an unobtrusive gesture. A hint of a smile appeared on his lips as he asked for secondment.
Ma Jia was helpless. From the moment he raised his hand, he realized: Du Bian and Shan Liang were colluding! Shan Liang, who started his career in street politics, obviously does not want his most powerful weapon of struggle to be cancelled. And he himself did not come forward to fight for it so as not to expose his deeds. This guy is really good.
The answer was soon revealed. Du Yan's motion did not receive any opposition. Even the people in the Law Club could not think of enough convincing reasons to oppose Du Bian's motion. The motion was quickly passed. Later, Du Bian continued to propose: In order to implement the basic rights of the elders, "association." A special "Societies Law" should be formulated.
The Assembly then voted on the proposal and passed it overwhelmingly.
“I have brought the draft of the Societies Law to the General Assembly for review.
"Du Bian took advantage of the victory and handed a document bag to a supervisory committee member.
Du Bian's Societies Law is not very new in terms of its provisions. After browsing it for a while, Ma Jia found that it was a direct copy of the Austrian Societies Law, but there were important modifications in some places. The most important point is that the Cross Travel Group is obliged to provide funding and venue support to the association.
Shan Liang jumped out again to second the proposal. Not only him, but also Cheng Mo and others also expressed their support for the passage of this "Society Law". At this point, the Law Club was completely powerless. Under the noisy advocacy of Shan Liang and his group, the "Society Law" was quickly passed in principle. Of course, there will be certain revisions to the legal provisions at the next legislative review meeting, but the overall direction cannot be reversed.
At this time, Ma Jia fully understood that Du Bian's real needs were here. She was not interested in the power of demonstrations at all. He was trying to engage in the Women's Federation! Yes, the Women's Federation should be a social organization in essence, not a state agency. Du Bian obviously realized that his direct request to establish a women's federation was unlikely to be approved at the conference. She achieved her goal through such a roundabout way.
Then, it comes to how to ensure the distribution of benefits. This is a very sensitive issue, although the stock dividend system and allowance and welfare system have been established at the first plenary meeting. However, this system did not have complete details in the past, and it was too complicated. Many people were confused and had great opinions.
The meeting first reiterated that no changes will be made to the original stock dividend system. It also provided an explanatory explanation of the originally vague source of the dividend extraction "the total revenue of the commercial organization's profits and military organization's loot".
"Business organizations make profits. It's not difficult to understand: ranging from the profits of Leizhou Sugar Company to the women's cooperatives paying % of their shares as dividends, these are all profits. This time, profits are clearly defined: refers to The company "turns in net profits" after leaving the funds needed to expand operations and production from its annual net profits. The spoils of military institutions are limited to captured gold, silver, treasures and luxury goods. Specific varieties will be published in a catalog. Dividends are calculated once a year. , calculated based on the legal currency that crosses the group - currently it is food circulation coupons. Abolish the unclearly defined "voucher" system. Since the total amount of dividends distributed by all the elders may be very huge, once it is put into the market, it will immediately create a monetary system Collapse, so it is stipulated that everyone’s dividend account is temporarily frozen and cannot be used for consumption or cash withdrawal. The frozen account will pay a certain amount of interest. d!~!
