In mid-1790, Paris, the capital of the Kingdom of France.

With the craze that the Declaration of Human Rights has set off throughout France, the term democracy began to spread in Paris, a city enslaved by feudal systems for thousands of years. Even the Constitutional Assembly was mixed with a few "idealists" who were incompatible with those in power.

Since the victory of the Declaration of Human Rights, some MPs in Paris have planned to enhance their reputation by pleasing the ‘people’.

As a result, various incredible proposals began to appear in the Constitutional Convention.

For example, a very controversial bill that even violated the interests of most powerful bourgeoisie was called out by a passionate member of parliament.

"From ancient times, there have always been greedy and depraved bureaucrats and nobles in the great French kingdoms, embezzling the property of the people and the country.

At this moment, I not only want to define the crime of embezzlement as the worst crime, but also define an open and fair channel for those missing "stolen money".

In the past, every time the corrupt officials were searched, they disappeared in the name of being filled in the treasury. This was difficult for even a great king to detect clearly.

Moreover, the wealth of many embezzlement comes from victims. I don’t know how many people have their families destroyed due to the corruption of one or several bureaucrats. Although these people did not directly provide the stolen money, they are victims under the charge of corruption and deserve the compensation they deserve!

I firmly suggest that in the future, all stolen money obtained by corruption victims must not be confiscated blindly, and should be compensated to the victims with real compensation."

As soon as this proposal was made, the bigwigs of the Constitutional Assembly fell into a strange silence.

The corruption issue mentioned by the other party has been discussed in the Constituent Assembly, but this is the first time that someone dares to disclose that all the stolen money in the future will be taken out and compensated to the so-called victims!

Isn’t this the ‘outside pickup’ that deducts everyone?

Most of the members present knew that the stolen money embezzled into the national finances, which indirectly flowed into the pockets of the bureaucrats.

No matter what name it is, all relevant departments can get a lot of money.

This is your good fortune, and I will share the spoils with everyone. Otherwise, who will have the motivation to arrest the corruption criminal?

Of course, it is enough for everyone to know about this kind of "mutual benefit and win-win" matter in private. It is naturally immoral to say that with the successful promulgation of the Declaration of Human Rights, Paris is so popular. If this issue is really known by the Parisian mud legs outside, it may be a big trouble!

It is natural that as soon as the proposal was left, someone stood up to oppose it, and it was well-founded!

"It is difficult to clarify the source of the stolen money for corruption. After all, no one will leave relevant certificates when embezzling. At that time, anyone involved can stand up and say that they are victims or bribers, and can also make up a large number of tragic storylines.

At that time, how should we distinguish between real victims and liars?

Not to mention, a lot of the stolen money may not be corruption by corruption offenders. Perhaps he obtained it from other channels. It is natural that these stolen money is charged into the national treasury and contribute to national construction!”

These remarks were immediately approved by most members of parliament.

However, the MP who proposed the proposal on the stage was not at all panicked. He dared to say this proposal, in fact, to make himself famous. He didn't care whether the proposal would be passed, and he also knew how dirty the essence of politics was.

However, for members of parliamentary origin who are from a small-scale (small-asset intellectual), they do not have enough connections and money, and they may be kicked out of the Constitutional Assembly one day.

Of course, we must seize every opportunity to make ourselves famous. As long as we have enough fame, even if we have no money or connections, we can become an important member of the Constitutional Convention.

Since such speculators dare to throw out such sensitive topics, they are of course ready.

He doesn't care about offending people. As long as he can gain long-term and stable power, everything else is nothing!

After walking out of the conference hall, he was better than the lower-level citizens who couldn't eat enough. That's a big deal!

Corruption has been a topic that the people hate since ancient times, and it is easy to become famous for this kind of topic!

Regarding the issue of the inability to investigate the source of the stolen money, the MP naturally had already come up with a countermeasure. It can even be said that he was waiting for someone to raise this question and then throw out his biggest trump card to become famous today!

Isn’t it just to please the people and occupy the moral commanding heights? The verbal party is the best!

"Yes, it is really difficult to distinguish the source of the stolen money, and the identity of the victim is indeed easy for professional scammers to take advantage of loopholes.

However, these difficulties are not obstacles to our inexplicable consumption of the stolen money!

Since the stolen money from corruption is illegal income, and the stolen money is also for the purpose of national construction, why not openly and transparently establish a foundation with charity as its purpose?

When a corrupt criminal is arrested, the people should see the actual benefits, rather than just throwing the corrupt criminal into prison for trial.

I suggest that all stolen money found by corruption victims must be registered publicly, and relevant charitable foundations must be established to purchase grain and distribute it to those who are unable to eat enough.

Moreover, it must be taken from the people and used by the people. Corrupt officials in local cities have been arrested, and the stolen money from this corrupt official will be subsidized to local people. It should not be too difficult to review the qualifications of poor people.

Of course, in order to avoid the charitable foundation established by stolen money being corrupted by local officials, a complete supervision agency must be established. It is best to let the people watch it themselves. Anyway, the money is all about giving benefits to the local people, so I believe that the local people will definitely have very high enthusiasm..."

The congressmen on the stage talked endlessly. As long as someone stood up and raised the gaps, he would propose targeted solutions.

This is the power of the mouth cannon party.

It’s not that he doesn’t know how much resistance there is to use stolen money to serve the people.

Human nature is greedy!

The stolen money was plundered, who can guarantee that the officials who handled it will not let it shrink again?

Establishing an open and transparent regulatory system is even more idealistic. Not to mention anything else, 80% of the people in the Constitutional Convention will firmly oppose it!

How can government affairs be open and transparent?

If everything is made public, how can everyone happily conduct internal transactions and let their relatives and friends go to the back door?

This is a right thing to do with senior officials in the entire national government!

Even if the central government agrees, it will be a bad idea for you when the local government implements it!

Taking away a job is like killing a parent, not to mention that you are seizing a group of officials’ jobs, and bureaucrats are like wolves and tigers, which can you gain advantage?
