The general trend is not something that a few small people can shake, and the introduction of cheap foreign labor is not so simple, except for the support of the capitalists, everyone else is against it.

Without it, only profit.

The influx of a large number of cheap migrant workers will not only impact the domestic wage system, but also affect social security. If everyone's vital interests are harmed, it is natural to oppose it.

The position of the Vienna Government has always been firm on this issue. The distinction between priority and subordination is very clear.

It is impossible to ignore the foundations of the state because of the interests of the capitalists. With the exception of highly skilled workers, ordinary workers are not welcome in Austria.

At the national level, the people of the country receive income, and the money still stays in the domestic circulation; When migrant workers are paid, most of the rest is left in addition to their necessities.

The outflow of wealth is certainly detrimental to the development of the country, and no government will welcome it unless there is a real shortage of labor that must be made up by migrant workers.

Austria had a shortage of labor, but it was only due to the impact of the war that there was a temporary short-term shortage of labor. As long as the capitalists stop blindly expanding, this problem does not exist.

Workers who are openly brought in are not the same as those who sneak in to do illegal work. The latter is illegal employment and can be deported at any time; The former signed a contract, which is a legal work, and it must not be so rude.

If a large number of migrant workers are introduced, once the post-war economic crisis breaks out, the domestic employment and labor compensation systems will be shattered by the impact, and the vicious circle will further exacerbate the crisis.

The government did not try to stop the blind expansion of the capitalists, and it was actually affected by the shortage of labor to curb this wave of expansion, and this ending is quite comic.

In the face of interests, all difficulties can be overcome. When there is a shortage of labor, poaching is done, and after Christmas, a war for talent breaks out in Austria.

In order to recruit more workers, many companies have given unimaginable preferential conditions, such as: free lunch, free accommodation......

Against this background, in 1880, the number of labor disputes accepted by the labor inspection department hit a record low, and social class contradictions tended to ease.

The rise in labor costs has also led to an increase in the operating costs of enterprises, but this small problem is not worth mentioning in the face of war.

In a favourable situation, the "golden age" continued to appear in the newspapers, and many people were optimistic that this was another explosion of the capitalist economy.

The population did not know the gravity of the consequences, but Franz could not help but be vigilant. Prosperity is brought about by war, and once the war is over, it cannot be sustained.

While people's incomes are rising, prices are also slowly rising. Once the war is over, this deformed prosperity will certainly not be sustainable.

The post-war economic bubble was punctured, the overcapacity crisis broke out, market competition became more brutal, and corporate profits fell sharply.

With the discipline of capitalists, in the case of low profits, it is an inevitable result to reduce labor costs. Layoffs and lower salaries are the most common tactics.

Income has decreased, prices have reached a high level, and the life of the people at the bottom will become more and more difficult, and a crisis is about to appear.

If it weren't for the colony to drain the flood, Franz wouldn't have been able to sleep. Just thinking of the horrific wave of unemployment chills him shuddered.

After much hesitation, Franz decided to intervene in the market. The government must consider skills to intervene in the market, and it is certainly not possible to directly intervene in it.

Putting down the newspaper in his hand, Franz instructed the maid: "Inform the heads of the Ministry of Finance, the Banking Regulatory Department, and the National Bank to come over for a meeting tomorrow afternoon." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After speaking, the sound of "jingle bell" sounded, and the maid picked up the phone not far away and began to dial.

I have to admit that the telephone is one of the greatest inventions of mankind in the 19th century. Before that, if you want to announce the meeting, you must send someone to deliver the message, which cannot be done without a little half a day's work.

Now the phone call is delivered in a split second. Of course, this is the emperor's prerogative, and the special line opened by the telephone company has a special person waiting for 24 hours a day to ensure that the wiring is completed as soon as possible.

In this era of manual wiring, ordinary people want to make a call, or they still have to queue up obediently, waiting for half an hour is not too late, and it is normal to delay for two or three hours during the peak period.

Since it is a purely manual operation, some accidents are inevitable, such as: the most common operator error, resulting in phone lines.

The telephone company is not responsible for the delay in the call time due to the operation error of the telephone company's personnel.

There's no way, it's overlord service. In recent years, telephones were high-tech products, and telephone companies had monopolized operations, and they loved to use them.

No matter how pitted, the telephone is much stronger than the telegraph. It is far more convenient to be able to talk directly from home than to go to a telegraph company to send a telegram.

If you want better service, upgrade to VIP. This is Franz's brainchild, plagiarized from the Big Penguin Empire, if you want to improve the quality of your calls, then go to Kryptonite!

As long as krypton can become stronger, even if it is a customized 24-hour dedicated line. Unless it is a special case, it is guaranteed to be connected for five minutes.

As for the problem of poor service quality complained by ordinary users, then we can only apologize. In the era of manual wiring, there is no way to talk about the quality of service.

You can't blame the phone company for treating it differently, it's really forced by life. The telephone, a high-class product, is simply not something that ordinary people can afford to use, and even the vast majority of the middle class cannot afford to use it.

As the newspaper said: "To judge whether the other party has money, just look at whether he has a phone at home." ”

The richest people are all VIP users of telephone companies, and as long as they install phones, they are all middle-class and upper-class.

The network access fee of up to 500 Aegis, and the telephone bill of the minimum 300 Aegis per month directly eliminated all ordinary people.

Don't be too expensive, because of the relationship between the establishment of outlets across the country, in fact, the telephone company is still losing money and making money.

If it weren't for the market grab, it is estimated that the telephone, like many European countries, is only exclusive to the big cities.

The high cost is actually paying for the research and development and promotion of new technologies. Monopoly management is not only a praise for R&D, but also a practical helplessness.

Without core technology, royalties to be paid, infrastructure input costs are too high, and profit prospects are not optimistic.

In the context of continuous loss of money and distant profits, talking about anti-monopoly is actually nonsense.

It's easy to stand on the moral high ground, but the question is to solve the problem? It's easy to break a monopoly, and then what?

Enterprises do not see the prospect of profitability, have no motivation, and do not develop and promote new technologies, and the consequences can be much more serious than monopoly.

Each era has its own characteristics, and the most suitable is the best. The so-called monopoly hinders scientific and technological progress, in fact, it is also relative, and before that, monopoly also promoted scientific and technological progress.

Of course, this is limited to technology. The premise is based on scientific and technological innovation, relying on more advanced technology to occupy the market and obtain a monopoly position.

Even in later generations, there are still many monopoly groups, relying on technological superiority. There is no way, the peers are not strong, and they fail in the market competition.

For the sake of anti-monopoly, we don't want others to make scientific and technological progress and wait for competitors to catch up.

The issue of side effects is not on Franz's radar for the time being. You can't skip eating because you might choke to death.

These problems are still left to future generations to solve, and now we are still working hard to climb the science and technology tree and stand out in this most cruel era.

Chancellor of the Exchequer Carr: "Your Majesty, we are in a period of rapid economic development, and a sudden contraction of monetary policy can easily cause market turmoil. ”

Not to be worried, the government rarely intervened in the market in the liberal economy, and did not know how to intervene in the market.

Doing something that has never been done before and involves a lot of things will cause doubts in the minds of normal people.

Franz shook his head: "Instead of directly shrinking the monetary base, we just need to standardize the approval and issuance of loans to ensure the safety of depositors' funds." ”

The same thing, in other words, produces different results.

Direct and brutal government intervention, or forcing banks to shrink, is bound to meet with a strong backlash. The situation is different if it is intervened in the name of regulating the issuance of loans.

The latter itself is one of the functions of the government, protecting the safety of depositors' funds, and it is also a high-level use, and no one can object to it.

While standardizing the issuance of loans, it is natural that some loans with incomplete procedures and falsified information will not be approved.

Often, these loans are also high-risk loans, and preventing these loans from being issued not only effectively shrinks the monetary base, but also protects the safety of depositors' funds.

It's not obvious yet, and when the crisis breaks out, every extra Aegis cash may be a lifesaver for the bank.

Franz didn't want to see a massive bankruptcy of the country's banks, and then the government would be forced to take over the mess and leave the finances in debt.

Minister of Banking Supervision Alex: "Your Majesty, we still lack a legal basis in this regard, and the government has not clearly defined the scope of supervision of commercial loans.

If you intervene blindly and without detailed criteria, it is easy to abuse your power and cause bad consequences. ”

Since the suppression of the March Revolution, the Austrian government has started the road of legal reform, and the **** Congress has been busy for 30 years, but it has not been able to fully refine.

Many issues are patched after they have been discovered. Franz was accustomed to tinkering, and the building of the legal system itself was perfected through constant exploration, and it was simply unrealistic to do it in one step.

"I'll address this question to the legislature. You are responsible for cooperating, collecting more cases, and coming up with an implementation rule as soon as possible.

The imperfect part will be slowly made up later. If you plug some loopholes, you will have fewer loopholes, and this is a long-term work. ”
