Capítulo 1534: Chapter 554: MacArthur Becos a Stepping Stone
“The general betrayed his soldiers!”
Just after the veterans in Washington were dispersed.
Far away in California, Caron Block, who had risen from the Chief Justice of Los Angeles to the Mayor of Los Angeles, delivered his speech!
“No one understands better than Douglas MacArthur what these veterans once sacrificed on the battlefield for the great United States.
And it was precisely because of their fearless charges, ti and again, that Douglas MacArthur gained the dals on his shoulders.
But this ti, Douglas MacArthur turned his bayonet on his soldiers.
He betrayed those comrades who stood behind him and charged for him on the battlefield.
Douglas MacArthur is no longer a pure soldier, now he is just a politician
…”
Caron Block’s speech, broadcast nationwide through ABC, recounted one moving story after another from the World War I battlefields.
“Bain Fisher, a devout Christian, did not pick up a rifle to adhere to his faith, and for that, he beca an outcast in the army.
Despised by everyone in the army.
But it was this very person who, in battle, repeatedly carried back his comrades, and according to statistics, Bain Fisher saved a total of 127 comrades.
From that mont, he was already the pride of the U.S. Army.
But even such a person, to reduce governnt spending, chose to retire, yet the governnt did not provide him with a deserved job.
In such circumstances, Bain Fisher never complained, he lived positively and optimistically, feeling proud of what he had done on the battlefield.
This great person lost his temporary job last year.
He has two children to care for, and with no other choice, he went to Washington with his forr battle comrades.
Hoping the governnt would fulfill its long-promised discharge bonus, he only wanted to get his due compensation!
But earlier, his forr superior, Douglas MacArthur, turned a bayonet on him.
Bain Fisher fell in a pool of blood!
Once a great Arican hero, he did not fall under the enemy’s gunfire.
But was killed by those he once served!
…”
Those Arican people who had an extre aversion to veterans, at this mont, listening to Caron Block’s recount of Bain Fisher’s story over the radio.
Shed their crocodile tears!
As long as it doesn’t require them to give up their own interests, they are willing to offer their sympathy to the poor and the great.
Similarly, they also directed all their anger at Douglas MacArthur.
Mr. President rely ordered you to disperse these veterans, not to take up arms against them!
As for dispersing veterans without using rifles, that’s not sothing ordinary Arican citizens need to consider.
“The great people of Los Angeles have always held great respect for those who have given everything for this country.
Thus, I personally have discussed with the heads of United Artists and the California branch of Breton Bank, and the two companies have already decided to establish 300 veteran relief stations in Los Angeles.
Here, I announce to all veterans within the United States.
If you ever need anything, there will always be bread and milk waiting for you in Los Angeles!”
Donnie is still in Washington now, sitting in the study of his Washington estate, having just heard Caron Block’s speech.
With a smile on his face.
Kafe Jackson sat on the sofa on the other side, with a worried look.
“Boss, I understand your plan, wanting Caron to boost his reputation through the veterans.
But doing so could likely cause those veterans to flood into Los Angeles.
When that happens, there will definitely be public security problems in Los Angeles, and the citizens of Los Angeles will surely be dissatisfied with such a situation!”
In Kafe Jackson’s eyes, these veterans are still tools.
But they are now social instability factors, and if tens of thousands of veterans appear in Los Angeles, it’s impossible not to have incidents disrupting social order.
“What’s most important is, if these people get used to Caron’s handouts, they will beco idle and lazy!”
The United States has now entered the Great Depression.
Take agricultural products for example, when Herbert Hoover signed the “Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act,” it was originally intended to increase the inco of Arican farrs.
But now?
In 1929, the total inco of Arican agriculture was 12 billion US Dollars, but by this year, it has fallen to 5.25 billion US Dollars.
Logically, at this ti Arican farrs should try their best to sell their products.
But the result?
Every week, rember every week, there are rchants dumping their milk into the sea, the river, they’d rather destroy the milk.
Than give it away to those who can’t afford to eat.
Why do these people do this?
Because they understand one thing, if those given charity get used to it, they will beco idle and lazy and not work.
This situation will lead to even worse results.
At least, that’s how it is for those rchants.
Now Kafe Jackson is speaking out of similar considerations.
Donnie laughed after hearing this.
