742 Discussion of the extension of the land system

Because at this time, many people believe that at present, whether it is the land on the large and small Wanshan Island or the land on Mornington Island, all the development costs come from the "Northbound Fund", and the "Northbound Fund" is a private fund funded by our shareholders, and since it is our private money, obviously, the ownership of these lands should not belong to immigrants.

At present, although the tenants nominally recognize Xiao Ai as the "owner" on the island, there is no doubt that Xiao Ai theoretically owns only ninety-thirteen of the shares in these lands.

All in all, many of the participants believed that legally all the newly cultivated land was our own property, but that we had leased it to immigrants, and that we would have to collect rent.

As for the so-called "30-year unchanged" or "joint production contract responsibility system", it is nothing more than a system of land income distribution, and all these policies only define the use rights and interests of cultivators, and do not change the property rights of these lands that belong to our private individuals.

However, what Ren Ke is about to do on Zixia Island is obviously to change the property rights of the land.

All in all, since the traversers organized the resettlement of the land, all the land is actually our private land, which everyone knows, but Ren Ke's practice has led to the transfer of land property rights---- and at least eight years later, our private land has been transferred to the hands of the immigrants.

Obviously, many people think that this is very unreasonable, we are doing business, not charity, why should we give away our private land?

However, some people believe that land needs to be cultivated and developed, so we cannot and cannot give land to others---- after all, we have promised that the immigrants will be able to obtain land and national identity and land after working for us for eight years, which is equivalent to the return of the funds we have invested in advance, and we should not lose money.

And "points settlement" is our basic national policy, this principle must not be shaken, so Ren Ke's series of policies in the end everyone had to pinch their noses to admit it, but there are always people who complain about this and say that this is unfair to us, and this statement is quite marketable in the crossing group.

For this reason, Sun Lao sent a telegram from the Nicole, and he believed that the fundamental reason for this contradiction was that we did not strictly separate public and private rights.

Therefore, Sun Lao suggested that we should set up a federal government @ government as soon as possible, so that federal agencies can manage the reclamation of land in a unified manner, and this kind of organization of immigration and reclamation should be the business of the government @ government, and the initial investment should not be a private institution like the "North Fund", but should be allocated by the government @ government, as for the source of funds for the government @ government, that is, taxes.

In this case, the land reclaimed with taxes in the future can be distributed to the reclamation in the name of the state, and there will be no dispute over property rights.

So at the end of the telegram, Sun Lao proposed the establishment of an agency called the Federal Ministry of Finance, first to carry out accounting for each company, and then formulate a tax rule, as for the specific tax types and tax rates can be discussed, but in principle, it is necessary to bridge the bridge and the road, and distinguish between public and private.

The final result should be: each company pays taxes according to the regulations, and then the Ministry of Finance does what it does, proposes an annual budget according to the regulations, and implements it after it is approved by the general meeting.

Sun Lao also said in the telegram: In the future, all expenses that involve reclamation, immigration, garrisons, and other expenses that obviously belong to the functions of the federal government@government will not be borne by the "Beishang Fund", and all of them will go through the channel of taxation.

In addition, all those who hold public office, including Bamboo Garden and Sunflower Public Schools, foreign trade representatives, governors and captains of the garrison, should also be paid by the Federal Treasury.

Obviously, the bosses of the company should have salaries, and the crew members of the Nicole and the Pride should also be paid, so Captain Gu has submitted a plan to the "Beishang Fund" to set up a shipping company, and the salaries of the captain's crew will be paid by the company.

Sun Lao finally said, as for the three sailboats we just received, please discuss whether they are assigned to the federal government @ government, or to Captain Gu's shipping company, because this involves the source of the expenditure, if it is assigned to the company, it will be accounted for by the "North Going Fund", and if it is assigned to the federal government @ government, then the Ministry of Finance will give money.

Well, Sun Lao's telegram greatly extended the duration of this plenary meeting, and after everyone discussed it, everyone felt that the more they discussed, the more complicated it became, and the more they discussed, the more extensive it became, and of course, the matter became more and more brain-burning.

So this plenary meeting not only digressed, but also extended, in the face of complicated content, everyone had to pick up the spirit to continue the discussion, for this reason the two ships and three places exchanged telegrams frequently, and finally some eyebrows were discussed---- everyone felt that we should start with the easiest place to start, that is: first put up the shelf of the federation.

As a result, in addition to the federal Ministry of Finance, which was first proposed by Sun Lao, several more federal agencies appeared.

However, the first to establish the Federal Ministry of Finance was not the first to be proposed by Sun Lao, but according to the proposal of Li Junming and Barrister Li and in accordance with the requirements of the "Red Chamber Convention", the plenary session was first renamed the Federal Senate.

As a result, they also entrusted Li Junming and Zhu Beiguo with the task of drafting a draft federal constitution, and asked them to submit it to the federal Senate for discussion and adoption before the end of the year.

Next, the participants discussed some basic points of the constitutional text, which, in addition to implementing all the rights and obligations of everyone in the Red Chamber Convention, should clearly define the rights and obligations of the various federal institutions, and form some preliminary power checks and balances between the judiciary, the parliament and the federal government.

Thus, from May 1, 1659, ninety-three time-travelers became members of the first Bundesrat, the first resolution passed by the parliament was to establish that the members of the current Senate were for life......

Well, apparently it's a must.

The country established by the traversers themselves will not give up control, this is the consensus of everyone, of course, what will happen to their descendants, no one has mentioned this matter. For this reason, lawyer Li Junming explained, I hope that our group of people is the first and last lifetime parliamentarians of this country, and everyone nodded in agreement after listening to it, and the final resolution was that the members of our current federal parliament will only be held in by-elections if they die of natural causes or voluntarily resign, and the number of members will remain at 93 until we all withdraw from the stage of life.

So this group of members of the Senate immediately issued a joint statement: We are the founder of the Australian Federation and the last lifetime member of the Australian Federation, and the parliamentary structure of the Federation will be bicameral in the future, and the Senate and the House ----of Representatives will all be elected by the future citizens of the Federation.

In addition, it is believed that the bicameral system can be implemented when the conditions are ripe, and this system has withstood the test of history, and it may not be the most ideal system, but we have to admit that it is the least bad system that has been proven in the course of mankind's millennial exploration of political systems.

In any case, the Australian Federation should have a federal senate and a federal house of representatives in the future, as for when it will be implemented, it depends on the specific situation, but it is certainly not the recent ---- at least for a long time, the federal senate is the only de jure supreme authority, this is the consensus of all the traversers.

Soon Lao Ba was elected president of the Federal Senate, and Li Junming, the main writer of the federal constitution, was elected vice president, both for a five-year term and can be re-elected.

After discussing the establishment of the federal government @ government agencies, the two ships and three places exchanged them by telegram and finally decided that we only need three institutions at present: the Federal Education Commission, the Federal Ministry of Finance and the Federal Migration Service.

The Board of Education is clearly aimed at minors, with Bamboo Garden and Sunflower Public School being its subordinate institutions.

As for the Federal Ministry of Finance, it is not to say that it is in charge of the wallet, although judging from the current situation, the so-called Ministry of Finance is actually just another skin of the "Northbound Fund".

However, through thorough discussions, we have realized the great significance of separating public and private rights, so it is very necessary and wise to take precautions and make such institutional arrangements in advance.
