When it comes to the design of the American system, there are always people here who come with their mouths open, and whenever the separation of powers is mentioned, the most stable state of the triangle seems to flash in front of us.
Objectively speaking, when the United States was founded, it really wanted to develop a stable political system, and it was also planned along this line.
Judging from the actual situation, this system of the United States has made the United States, a latecomer migrant, full of vitality for quite a long period of time, and has also seized the once-in-a-lifetime historical opportunity to embark on the road of becoming a strong country and even a hegemon.
Because the United States was founded later than those countries with historical heritage, according to historical experience, the United States has placed special emphasis on guarding against two points in the design of the system: one is to prevent the emergence of the first person;The other is to prevent the country from being held in power by the military.
To sum up, the United States cannot be allowed to have a political, economic, military, and cultural ** that is decided by one person or one organization.
Theoretically speaking, the United States is not only the head of the country's administration, but also the commander-in-chief of the three armed services, and its power should be boundless. Moreover, after the successive United States ** entered the White House, they had to form their own ruling team, who to use and who not to use, they all had the final say, this is a proper personal group, but why is it difficult for the United States to form individuals**.
This has to be said that the design of the U.S. system has a role for Congress in controlling the world.
Anyway, the matter of who your new ** nominates to be what minister must be approved by the Congress, otherwise it will be in vain.
Under normal circumstances, the heads of departments nominated by ** are actually old acquaintances of the Congress, so the Congress will not deliberately stumble on this matter. It's useless to turn your face with ** for this matter, after all** still has the right to forcibly appoint someone you like.
But once you do this, it is tantamount to taking Congress seriously, and the consequences will be serious, and during the four-year term, you don't want to pass it smoothly in the Congress with legislative power.
In fact, to be able to get into the position of the United States, no matter how you say it, you are all human spirits, and you will reach a certain degree of tacit understanding with Congress. As long as it's not too much, Congress doesn't care who you use.
What do you mean not to be excessive?That is, you can't choose active military personnel to form a cabinet, otherwise when the time comes, the Congress will be left to stare at how to play and how to play.
Of course, this is also what the United States enacted when the system was designed. By the rule, servicemen can serve in the White House only after 7 years of retirement, in particular, the Minister of Defense.
Imagine, if a soldier becomes the Minister of Defense, then it will be difficult to say whether the Minister of Defense will have the final say or the Minister of Defense.
Although the matter of starting a war has to be approved by Congress, if it is really a gun to the head, a few lawmakers can hold on without raising their hands.
Looking at the main functions of the Congress from here, that is, staring at both the ** and the Minister of Defense, political rights and military rights are watched by a large group of people in the Congress, and it stands to reason that the operation of the country will be stable, and there will be no problems.
As mentioned earlier, in the nearly 250 years since the founding of the United States, the speed of barbaric growth has been very fast, especially in the past 70 years, and it is a proper global hegemon.
But to say that the US system plays a decisive role is nonsense, because there are dozens of countries that copy and paste according to the US system, so why has not there been another United States.
Therefore, the system itself is not an inevitable factor in the strength of the United States, but what really determines the international status of the United States today is the military and the economy, and the interaction and interdependence of the two is the decisive reason.
But anyone and everything is developing and changing, with the philosophical concept of our ancestors, yin and yang, black and white are mutually restrictive, mutual transformation is a natural law, time and space have changed, the original model has not changed, yin and yang, black and white will be reversed.
Specifically, with the changes in time and the world pattern, the flaws in the political system that once had a positive effect on the United States will certainly be exposed.
In 1959, Eisenhower, who left office in the United States, discovered this defect, and in his public speech, he reminded Americans to pay attention to the fact that the military-industrial complex and the chaebol are tied together, which will deal a devastating blow to the American political system, and he almost expressed the worry of losing the country.
But he obviously said it too late, and the American ** industrial group and the chaebol that grew up with the rise of the United States had already completed the initial binding at that time, which was later the so-called military-industrial complex.
In political circles, dual identities or revolving doors are now an open secret in the United States, but what can you do? There is a law in the United States that does not allow this to be done, and if you want to plug the flaws of this system, Congress will not even be able to submit a proposal, let alone voting, and you will understand why by looking at the resumes of the congressmen.
A rough inventory shows that the wife of Deputy Cheney during the administration of George W. Bush was the chairman and vice president of Lockheed Martin. It's no surprise that Cheney has been called the most powerful deputy in American history.
Rumsfeld is the chairman of the RAND think tank, and during the Second Gulf War, he was the US secretary of defense and the direct commander of the war.
The current Secretary of Defense Austin, who only retired from the military in 2016, served as Secretary of Defense in 2021, less than 7 years after his retirement. How did you get it?Approved by Congress!Why is it specially approved, I suddenly remembered Xie Xian's line in "Shaolin Football", "It's all our people, what to play with us"!As for what background Austin has, the board of directors of Raytheon, the fist product for missiles and missile defense systems, has a chair for him.
Trump is not stingy enough, his next home after Secretary of Defense Mark Esper leaves office is General Dynamics of the United States, and the company's well-known products are F-16, Seawolf-class nuclear submarines, this revolving door can be turned. If there is no such person in Trump's team, he doesn't even have the capital to go crazy.
As for the United States, I haven't been mixed with Morgan, Goldman Sachs, BlackRock and other consortia, so it's hard to say whether the chair is three-legged.
Suffice it to say, the military-industrial complex of the American industry conglomerate and the chaebol has taken control of the United States.
In today's world pattern, the trouble for the United States lies in the fact that the United States wants to go out to fight people and maintain its hegemonic status, but the military-industrial complex has to settle accounts, and if there is no **10,000 taels when the cannon goes off, this thing will not be done. Therefore, whether it is the Russian-Ukrainian war or the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the US-industry complex is very reluctant to see the war spill over. Because once the United States is overturned by a strong adversary, the host of the military-industrial complex will be gone, and what is the difference between letting them go from luxury to simplicity and asking them to die.
From here, it is not difficult to understand why the United States actively assists Ukraine and Israel on the one hand, and on the other hand, they maintain restraint according to the requirements of these two countries, and do not dare to enter the battlefield easily even when they are attacked.
