Nevada’s Democratic governor, Steve Sisolak, announced in early February that the state would create “innovation zones” to attract technology companies to the state to establish companies to drive economic development in the state. Large technology companies that own large tracts of land in the innovation zones will be able to form governments and exercise the same powers as county governments, including collecting taxes, forming school districts and courts, and performing government service functions.
For Chinese immigrants, who suffer from authoritarian dictatorship, this news, which bears a strong socialist stamp, is appalling. The memory of a planned economy in which the factory was society, the factory manager was the mayor, and old age, sickness, and death were all in the factory is not a distant memory.
The aura of public power can not only distort the normal form of a person, but the aura of public power can even distort the normal form of a society. The practice of democratic politics in the West for many years has proved that the greatest obstacle to people’s freedom comes from public power. This is the swamp of American society, especially the current serious tear in American society, the consensus between conservatives and liberals tends to break down, the social class is increasingly solidified, and the contradiction of interests is sharper than ever, making American society to a crossroads of Life and death. Although American society has long established a sound legal system, in judicial practice, it is often full of loopholes. The question facing American society now is whether to follow the founding foundations of the founding fathers or to continue to lean left and move completely toward Soviet and Communist centralization.
The horror of public power is that its influence on social life is in every aspect, typically the unprecedented poor practice environment for criminal defense lawyers in the Communist Party of China, the root cause of which is the confrontation between public power and lawyers, criminal defense lawyers in the process of defense, in the end is then questioned why you defend the bad guys, but in terms of lawyer practice, maintaining the balance of the prosecution and defense, the court should be in the center of the rule of law performance model, and The powerful public power to break this model, lawyers are the necessary participants in the rule of law society, but the Chinese society lawyers perjury almost flooded, and even the Chinese Criminal Law 306 defines the defense, litigation agent destruction of evidence, falsification of evidence, obstruction of testimony, but not to the public prosecutor of this crime, the lawyer can prosecute the defendant, the defendant can prosecute the lawyer, so as to obtain a reduced sentence, which This is against one of the most basic professional ethics of lawyers. In a poor practice environment, lawyers are often subject to fierce retaliation by the public authorities, making lawyers avoid criminal defense on the basis of a clear-cut approach to power and money, while no one protects the interests of vulnerable groups. This also makes China’s rule of law stagnant, or even regressive.
Throughout the history of the United States, laws have bound people’s behavior, while Puritan ethics have bound people’s hearts. Ideas such as democracy and human rights originate from the Protestant Christian idea of individualism, and democratic politics is rooted in the idea that sovereignty resides in the people, all people participate, the government exists to protect civil rights, and officials are public servants of the people, and the root cause is to restrain public power. This is a leap in human history from the aristocratic group discussions and oligarchic power of the ancient Greek council of elders and the medieval group burying the individual. Government is simply an institution of public affairs that serves each individual, and the relationship between the individual and the government is no longer that of the governed and the ruler, but that of employer and employee. The individual in society is the employer and the public servant in government is the employee. Because of America’s founding roots in the Protestant Christian ethic, it is common for Americans to believe that there is a God above the government. Therefore, in the history of the United States, one of the natural personalities of the American people is a stubborn aversion to big government and an obsession with freedom, a characteristic reflected in the economy, which is an obsession with the liberal market economy. “Even in the 20th century, when the liberal market economy suffered repeated setbacks and was generally discredited, and when socialist thinking swept through Europe, the United States remained the defender of the liberal market economy. However, Nevada’s proposal is clearly about big government, allowing high-tech companies to establish government, which appears to attract investment from high-tech companies and stimulate economic growth, but is essentially about the left’s naked greed for power and disdain for traditional American values. The government is no longer elected by the people, nor is it an employee of the people. High-tech companies can use their own financial resources to establish high-tech dictatorship and penetrate into every aspect of ordinary people’s lives, and more dangerously, the enemy of the free world, the Chinese Communist Party, can further infiltrate and corrupt the United States by acquiring and merging the created companies.
The flawed domestic and foreign affairs of American society in the past forty years have led to the proliferation of left-leaning thinking and the decline of the Puritan ethic, which is also the root cause of the frequent social unrest and mob rampage in recent years, and the secularization of the Biden administration has contributed to the socialist trend in America.
