"Can we talk?"

"Proposals for Retirement Issues."

The host responded to the situation and asked a prompt question, and Catherine talked about the things Lynch told her.

"We consider that serving in the military is actually a job, a dangerous job done to protect national security."

"So during this time, when I and some members of Congress talk about this issue, I think they have done a lot for us."

"We can't simply dismiss them, it's a disservice."

"We have discussed whether there is any way to solve the current situation well so that the overall big policy can be implemented."

"At the same time, it can take into account the emotions of the soldiers."

"After several discussions, we finally reached a consensus."

"That is to directly convert military service years into working years, and it is more conversion."

"For example, if a school officer has served in the military for twenty years, he now loses his current job and may be placed in a company."

"When calculating his salary, it is the basic salary, plus about thirty years of service allowance, and other subsidies."

"The income from this seniority subsidy alone is equivalent to the monthly income of an ordinary worker."

"Of course, this is just my example. How to convert it and how much it will be converted into needs further discussion."

"But the decision on this general direction has already been made and will not change."

The host listened very carefully, or so it seemed.

"Isn't this unfriendly to young people who have just joined the army?"

"You know, a lot of them might be new to the military or only have two or three years."

Catherine shook her head, "Young people have more plasticity and more futures. We hope they can experience more work and find the true meaning of their lives in different positions."

"And... they are more adaptable to the new society. It is easier for them to find ways to survive in the new environment than older officers."

"I noticed that the military stopped recruiting new soldiers three years ago, so from my personal point of view, it can be said that soldiers who retire from the army, as long as they find a company to accept them, will start with a subsidy of five years of service."

The host kept nodding along with Catherine's words, "Sounds like a great policy!"

She said, looking down at the cards in her hand, and took out one of them, "I have a question from the audience outside the venue, whether we can continue to maintain the current size of the federal army without dismantling it."

"Some viewers think that we can continue to retain the military, even if it is not a large number, we should retain some of it."

"No one knows what the situation will be in the future. Maybe one day the temperature will not be so low, or in the summer, we will encounter some enemies in various senses."

"New creatures from the Ice Age, or people from Marillo, or even enemies from other places who crossed the sea and came to the Federation to seek supplies."

"Is it a danger to us if we don't have the military when we need it?"

Catherine denied this view, "Currently, the security issues of the Federation and most shelters along the equator are entrusted to the Global Communication Service Company."

"Everyone is actually familiar with this company. Its core is a new company formed with the Blackstone Group as its backbone."

"It comprehensively covers all aspects of people's work and life, including safety."

"Approximately two-thirds of the employees working under Global Security come from federal law enforcement agencies."

"The police department, the Bureau of Investigation, the federal military, and others."

"We're not really giving up the force, we're just entrusting it to a trustworthy company."

"And after entering the shelter era, we do not need to maintain a large-scale military. Instead of feeding these people with no work value in an environment with limited resources, it is better to let them return to society and find new opportunities."

"This can also reduce the pressure on each of us and activate more industries and markets..."

It cannot be said that it is watertight, but at least there are not many obvious problems in the interview, which aroused great concern in society as soon as it was broadcast. In particular, the issue of "conversion from military service to service" has attracted the most attention, and even some senior military generals have begun to take the initiative to ask about it.

Because many of them are real beneficiaries!

For example, some young people with military backgrounds entered the army in their teens. If those with 40 or 50 years of military service are proportionately more likely to be transferred to service.

It's possible that they have sixty or seventy years of service once they start working!

Even if the one-year service subsidy is 0.0 one credit point, this is still a lot of income for these officers!

Even if the salary itself is not high, just the working years can still make them live comfortably every month!

For a time, the number of soldiers protesting in society decreased significantly. After all, protesting may not necessarily bring positive feedback, and Catherine has already stated the federal government's follow-up measures.

Isn't this their purpose?

Whether they are veterans, ordinary citizens, or immigrants demonstrating, no matter who they are, the purpose of their march is to expand their influence and let the federal ruling class hear their demands!

It's not just about going to demonstrations. That's definitely not the ultimate goal of demonstrations. It's just a means, a process, a way!

Congress has also begun to discuss the possibilities and issues related to the transfer of military service to seniority, including formulating seniority subsidy standards, and has held several hearings on this.

Catherine has been leading this matter, so she now has high prestige and status in the eyes of the retired soldiers!

You can't refuse to trust someone who is running and doing good things for you, and even the most ill-tempered person can't tell them that it's wrong to do so.

This also laid a good foundation for Catherine in terms of public support, and her willingness to do practical things became one of her campaign labels.

Of course, this also creates another problem -

A large number of ordinary working class people began to spontaneously petition outside her office, hoping that she could solve the problem of new immigrants.

This is what politicians don't like to see the most. You hope that something is just a simple isolated incident, but there will always be someone who won't let you do it!

They are obviously two things, but when someone connects them together, they become one thing!

You helped those veterans solve their problems, but you didn’t help us ordinary workers solve our problems. Are you looking down on our working class?

See, a few words can bring down Catherine, and the taxpayers of the Commonwealth can say these words without hesitation!

They don't care!

Fortunately, these problems do not trouble Catherine, or rather Lynch.

The federal government has great experience in dealing with conflicts between new immigrants and native indigenous people!

As long as they provide some obvious benefits and improve the status of the federal people, they will be easily satisfied!

Catherine also said that Congress is considering and discussing whether it is necessary to introduce new immigrants, how many to introduce, and what social status to give them.

Judging from the bits and pieces of information revealed, everyone at least feels that it is acceptable.

For example, during the Ice Age, people all entered shelters. This does not mean that there is no need for people to guard the ground, nor does it mean that there is no work to be done on the ground.

In terms of agricultural research, a brand-new mulch film is being tested in the north. If the experimental results are satisfactory, it will once again be possible to grow crops on the ground.

But this life will be very hard.

When large-scale mechanized work cannot be carried out in a short period of time, humans must still be the mainstay - machines must be designed and produced that are suitable for working in low temperatures of tens of degrees below zero, and must ensure that they do not tear the mulch film, etc. Easy things.

Most "farmers" can only return to the shelter once a week. They usually live in houses on the ground, and the cold and loneliness will accompany them.

Various legends about "very hard work" began to circulate in the market, and these legends were accompanied by the explanation that "the purpose of introducing new immigrants is to make them do things that the federal people are not willing to do." The people's resistance Mood is also declining.

After all, given the temperament of the people of the Federation, if they are asked to choose between "doing their own work without compromising their emotions" and "slightly compromising their emotions but letting others work", almost all the people of the Federation will choose the latter!

During this time, Lynch has been paying attention to the dynamics of a group of conservative candidates. They are also doing roughly similar propaganda. Lynch even watched their public speeches live!

During the live broadcast, the word "tradition" was mentioned most often by the conservative candidates.

And he said that unless necessary, he would firmly oppose the large-scale introduction of new immigrants in Congress.

And this measure has also been wildly touted by many conservative voters!

Judging from the current support ratings of Catherine and the Conservative candidate, both parties are neck and neck.

Each party has its own core campaign strategy. As long as they increase publicity around these advantages and avoid issues on which they are weak, public opinion will only get higher and higher.

This is also an election practice. Don't talk about issues that make people unable to step down, and don't embarrass yourself.

But compared to the tug-of-war between the Progressive Party and the Conservative Party in terms of public support in the general election, the support rate of Ms. Tracy, the People's Party candidate, is not so good.

She has an inherent shortcoming, that is, she has never been considered a member of the federal ruling class.

It seems...it seems like this has nothing to do with running for president, but in fact, this is exactly one of the core factors that determines the presidential affiliation!
