中新网评:美国众议长选举“连续剧”暴露美式民主痼疾******

  中新网北京1月9日电(蒋鲤)在15轮投票表决后,美国众议院议长选举这场“连续剧”终于落下帷幕,众议院共和党领袖凯文•麦卡锡最终成功当选第55任美国众议院议长。这是美国国会过去164年来耗时最久的一次议长选举记录,将美国“对抗式民主”的弊端暴露无遗。

  由于两党对立加剧、党派内斗、利益分配不均等因素,众议长选举陷入一场拉锯战。在此次众议长竞选中,美国民主党议员继续抱团,多轮投票中,一票不投麦卡锡,共和党右翼“强硬派”领头的约20人小团体也拒绝投票麦卡锡。

  麦卡锡的当选之路一波三折,除了本人的“政治投机派”角色在国会不受欢迎外,与共和党内部政治分歧关系密切。

  一方面,共和党党内反对者认为,麦卡锡对民主党态度过于软弱,无力对抗民主党控制的参议院和拜登政府,另一方面,因为共和党的多数优势微弱,党内一些影响力较小的派系的政治力量则被放大,有利于他们巩固自己的选票。

  此外,党内反对者也认为,自己的选票没有换取更多利益,希望以此作为筹码换取麦卡锡更大的让步,比如让他们获得众议院重要委员会中的职务。

  作为仅次于美国总统、副总统的政坛三号人物,众议院议长通常由众议院多数党领袖担任,选举几乎没有悬念。然而,麦卡锡此次为当选,不得不做出多个关键让步,其中可能包括恢复一项罢黜议长动议机制,使得众议长的权力被削弱,难以掌控众议院。

  美国有线电视新闻网CNN称,麦卡锡在这场不合时宜的政治勒索中作出让步,这种绥靖政策只会让极端主义势力更加强大。

  这场引发全世界围观的尴尬选举暴露出美国政治存在严重的对立和分化。在权力博弈思维的裹挟下,党派利益凌驾于国家和人民利益之上,美国两党相互拆台,陷入“为反对而反对”的无脑对垒。而即便是一党内,也会因为利益分配问题产生不同的小派系,相互对抗,选票变成了谋利益的工具。

  从国会山骚乱到打破记历史记录的15轮众议长选举,“对抗式民主”让美国政治陷入瓶颈,长期对抗势必会让政客们丧失客观公正的判断能力,其政治阶层是否有能力治理国家也会引发质疑。

  两党之争和党派内斗进一步放大了美国政治体制弊病,美国所谓的“民主”形象,让全世界大跌眼镜。鼓吹以选民利益为先的美式选举,变成了政客们利益置换的游戏,进一步彰显出美国“民主政治”日渐失能,不断极化的党争已使美国政治制度陷入死循环。

  House speaker election reveals deep-rooted problems in U.S. democracy

  (ECNS) -- The Republican leader Kevin McCarthy was elected as the 55th speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives after 15 ballots. As the most grueling House speaker election in the past 164 years, the election has highlighted the defects of the country’s "confrontational democracy".

  The election once reached a stalemate due to intense partisan strife, inner-party struggle among the Republicans, uneven distribution of interests, and more. Democratic Party members forged a close alliance, refusing to vote for McCarthy, while about 20 Republicans also declined to cast ballots for the GOP leader.

  Except for his unpopular role as a "political speculator" in Congress, McCarthy’s hard-won election can be attributed to turmoil within the Republican Party.

  On the one hand, opponents in the Republican Party believe that the GOP leader's attitude toward the Democrats is too weak to confront the Senate controlled by Democrats and the Biden administration.

  On the other hand, the political power of some less influential factions in the Republican Party has been amplified due to the Party’s weak majority advantage in the House of Representatives, which is conducive to consolidating their ticket warehouses.

  Meanwhile, these opponents believe that their votes failed to win them more benefits, hoping to use this as a bargaining chip for McCarthy's further concessions, such as getting them positions in important House Committees.

  As the third political figure after the President and Vice President of the U.S., the speaker, by tradition, is the head of the majority party in the House of Representatives.

  But McCarthy has made many concessions in order to bring the ultra conservatives along, involving what’s known as the “motion to vacate,” a mechanism by which members can force a vote to depose the speaker. The reported concessions will empower individual members at the expense of McCarthy’s sway as speaker.

  CNN thought the concessions he made during this unseemly political shakedown would only make the extremist faction more powerful.

  This embarrassing election, which has drawn global attention, exposed the serious opposition and polarization in American politics. Both Democrats and Republicans put their interests before that of the country and its people, attacking and opposing each other irrationally.

  Besides, different factions arise within a single party and confront each other because of the distribution of interests. Votes have become a tool to win more benefits.

  From Capitol riots to the House Speaker election with record-breaking ballots, "confrontational democracy" has become a bottleneck of American politics. Long-term confrontation will surely impede politicians to think objectively and fairly while their capacity of governing the country will also raise doubts among the public.

  Both parties’ struggle and infighting among the Republicans have further amplified the defects of the American political system, with its "democratic" image shocking the world.

  The U.S.-style election, which advocates putting voters' interests first, has become a game of interest exchange among politicians. In addition, it further demonstrates the malfunction of American "democratic politics" and the constantly polarized party struggle that has trapped the American political system into an infinite cycle.

四川新春促消费:推出10亿元“大礼包” 强化春节市场供应******

  中新网成都1月17日电 (单鹏)四川省人民政府新闻办17日在成都举行“欢乐川味年——品质消费 年味四川”新闻发布会。会上透露,为繁荣春节消费市场,四川政企同向推出春节消费“大礼包”:四川省计划投入10亿元,发动3万家企业,开展4000场活动。

  据介绍,为促进消费回暖,去年5月,四川出台“消费6条”,鼓励四川市州面向餐饮、零售等受疫情影响严重的行业发放消费券。截至去年12月底,四川21个市州共计发放消费券13.8亿元,直接拉动消费171亿元,“总体看消费券作用还是比较明显。”四川省商务厅副厅长陈友清表示。

  为促进消费复元活血,针对今年一季度季节性特点,配合“年味四川”氛围营造,四川省商务厅再次推出新一轮促进消费的五条政策,包括发放消费券,对汽车、家电家装进行购置补贴,在条件具备路段适当设置夜间临时停车点等具体惠民措施。

  “‘消费新5条’含金量高、‘诱惑力’强,既有真金白银的投入,也有放开外摆摊位、临时停车限制等亲民便民举措;既有综合性普惠性的消费券发放,也有对汽车、家电、家居、餐饮等传统消费‘四大金刚’的聚焦。”陈友清表示,当前四川各地正在抓紧制订实施细则,预计今年一季度四川省财力将投入5亿元,合力提振消费信心。

  今年春节期间,部分领域消费预计率先走热。万达商管四川分公司总经理边康宁表示,在零售方面,满足市民年货采购需求的零食、服饰、家居,以及犒劳自己和家人的数码、黄金珠宝都是春节前最早开始旺销的商品。

  “从我们最近餐饮销售情况来看,已经基本恢复到2019年疫情前的水平。”据边康宁介绍,从上周开始,团年饭已经逐渐火热起来。此外在文化娱乐方面,今年电影和体验业态火爆,春节期间《中国乒乓》《流浪地球2》《满江红》等7部大片集中上映,14日部分电影已经开启预售,预售情况火爆。

  同时,为强化春节市场供应保障,四川各级商务主管部门加强节日期间蔬菜、肉蛋等生活必需品市场监测,发挥四川2000多家应急保供骨干企业作用,加强货源组织、区域联保、物流配送,确保生活必需品供应不脱销、不断档。

  成都农产品批发市场有限公司总经理王驭未表示,已提前组织商户加大货源储备,结合四川市民饮食喜好及近期时令产品,引导商户增加了进口海鲜、进口水果、香肠腊肉、干货副食等品类,丰富市民春节餐桌供应,现阶段市场日均可供应蔬菜超3200吨、肉类1000吨、水产海鲜1600吨,米面粮油储备约6000吨,各品类供应充足、价格趋于平稳。

  四川省发改委副主任李明騄表示,近期加大市场监测力度,密切关注粮油肉蛋菜等重要民生商品市场供应和价格形势,启动节日期间应急监测制度,及时发现苗头性问题并作出安排。提前研判不利天气可能对重要民生商品生产流通的影响,认真查找保供稳价工作中的薄弱环节和风险隐患。强化储备调节,全面梳理本地成品粮油、猪肉等重要民生商品储备情况,根据市场价格形势变化择机投放,及时增加市场供应。及时足额发放价格临时补贴,鼓励有条件的地方向困难民众增发一次性补贴,积极保障困难民众基本生活。(完)
