This Father of the Nation is not Buddha at all

I saw Hao Lei’s interview in Yijian in the previous paragraph. When asked if she cared about fame and fortune, she replied: A friend said in the previous paragraph that it is very reasonable. Before Shakyamuni became a Buddha, he had everything, such as fame and fortune. Only when you have it can you choose to let it go or not to let it go. This episode was at home because of the epidemic, so I clearly had a lot of things I wanted to accomplish, but it always ended up watching the video in a daze. Things like fame and fortune are not tempting to me, but I will not be as repulsive as I was when I was a child. I'm also curious about fame and fortune, but it's fine if I know what I want, and then try my best to fight for it. I have become independent in my heart this year in the United States, but the achievements are really nothing. I have been comforting myself before, being a person before doing things, but now I worry that I am too good at being a person, and I feel that everything is understandable and acceptable, and in the end, nothing will be accomplished. To quote Hamilton's line "you get love for it, you get hate for it. you get nothing if you wait, wait and wait."

Closer to home, because I just watched Hamilton once, I can only recall the main thread of the story.

Hamilton, the illegitimate son of a prostitute who grew up on an island in the Carribean Sea, came to the United States with a love of reading and a passion for success. He was recruited as a secretary by several generals due to his talent for writing. But hamilton didn't want to be a civilian, but wanted to make a fortune in the war of independence, and was eventually reused by washington.

After the victory of the American Revolutionary War, hamilton was appointed as Secretary of the Treasury, and through the issuance of U.S. Treasury bonds, the federal government had sufficient economic security. Jefferson, the political enemy of the then US Secretary of State, slammed: "Why should I let my debt-free virginia pay the new york's money? We finally drove out the United Kingdom that squeezed us, why should we add a federal government to ourselves? "This ideological difference is fundamentally caused by the difference in the economic structure of the North and the South, and directly gave birth to the later Democratic Party with more strongholds in the north and the Republican Party with more strongholds in the South. (I think Hamilton's move will ensure that America doesn't fall apart because of trivial matters, but I may have to add specific examples after reading Hamilton.) Although washington secretly supported him, it was through a dinner "decisions" that convincing Jefferson happen in a dinner", Hamilton agreed to sign the capital from the northern city of New York to Washington, which is closer to the south, in exchange for the issuance of national debt, and the prototype of Wall Street was thus formed. But then jefferson's monologue was really hilarious. This idealistic silly Bai Tian later found out that even if the executive branch is not in the new york, the new york is still the center of the United States because of its unshakable economic status. The egg dispute between money and power in capitalist countries is self-evident. The advantage brought by this system is that everyone is too busy making money, pragmatism, and too lazy to engage in metaphysical ideological struggles. The foundation of trade is honesty, which leads everyone to speak out without hiding anything. The downside is that the gap between the rich and the poor is widening, especially during the epidemic, when 73% of African-Americans don’t even have savings to support three months of isolation. As a digression, is money related to the later American founding fathers going home and dying well? It can be seen that the powerless founding fathers all died in unfortunate successes and defeats. The political system of such countries may be more interesting. On the one hand It is because there are relatively few public materials and many parts to be excavated. What is more important is what is good and what is bad about the latter type of government. How can every family be richer, wiser, and love each other more by absorbing the good things of the American polity?

Later, washington automatically withdrew from the re- election election and said: "if i leave, the nation learns to move on. it outlives me when i'm gone." It does not agree with its opinion so it has not been reused. Later on, Adams was in decline, and when the next presidential campaign began, Hamilton was unable to run due to the exposure of his mistress. When his old friend Burr competed with his old rival Jefferson, everyone thought that Hamilton would support Burr because of his friendship as a lawyer. However, Hamiton had long despised Burr, because Burr first became a member of the Senate because it was easier to change parties. (Politics so changeable?) and defeated hamilton's father-in-law. Hamilton felt that this buddy had no bottom line to speak of, and he was a scumbag who saw the situation fall with the wind. In the end hamilton wrote: jefferson has beliefs but burr has none. Hehe, today's president may believe in the money supporting him. This is the reason why I can watch hamilton, at least some people in it can not become a tool person instigated by the carrot in front of me, have a long-term vision and insist. In contrast, the villains of the House of Cards are really suffocating.

This declaration is considered to have reversed the favorable public opinion situation in Burr at that time: Burr distributed leaflets on the street at first, and won the support of most people with the image of being close to the people, but jefferson is considered to be a pro-French faction. After all, during the Revolutionary War, he was not in the United States, but in France. When he was secretary of state, Britain and France were at war, and jefferson thought he had to help France. After all, during the war of independence, the French brothers, various supporters and weapons, even provoked a war with Britain, so that they could not concentrate on dealing with the United States to help the United States win its independence. . However, hamilton advocated not participating. First, the French King Louis XVI who assisted them at that time had already been pushed to the guillotine (the French Revolution was really brave, so take a chance to look at the relevant information next time), and secondly, if Every time there is a war in the name of "freedom", the United States has to go up and join it, and then it will only be endless. I think pragmatists like hamilton care more about helping France, which is not good for them... Back to the election of burr and jefferson, hamiton made a good flower, and the people voted for jefferson when they were excited.

Burr is half-dead with anger. He didn't catch up with the dinner party that issued the national debt, and now he can't become the president. His limelight is always a little mean. He thinks that all this is because of hamilton. He not only disrespects himself, but even pays him back now make stumbling. Hamiton's personality in the play is not bad: love the sinner (I especially like his translation is not right for people). However, Burr does not have this kind of mind, and feels that Hamilton is targeting him. So Burr asked Hamiton to come out to a duel, and Hamiton agreed to his request in order to preserve his reputation. However, the principle of Hamilton's actions is actually to see how future generations evaluate him. This can be seen in the public statement that he took the initiative to explain to his mistress and hurt his wife in order to clear his accusation of corruption. Family and love are secondary, all he cares about is self-realization. Hamilton, who loves his reputation so much, can't be a slaughter, but how can he become a slaughter? During a duel, he was shot by burr and died at the age of 49.

In general, I admire his work spirit of "write day and night like running out of time, every day fight like running out of time", and am amazed at the fact that he wrote 51 papers in three months in order to maintain the new regime of the United States of America His talent, and even more admiration for him sticking to his principles to the end of his life, not seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages. But he has always put his career ahead of his loved ones, so much so that he refuses to go on vacation with his wife to the north and bury his defend bonds at home to be seduced by a woman a block away. The exposure of the mistress incident was also the beginning of his decline, which not only prevented him from running for president, but also lost his political career. He also made his son participate in a duel in order to maintain his reputation. In the end, his son obeyed his "suicide speech" by shooting at the sky, was injured and died of wound infection. He was never satisfied when his son died, and he was disappointed in both career and life, so he took his wife's "that would be enough" to heart.

He first fought for his name, and when his son was born, hamilton, who fought bloody to create a prosperous country for him, also died in his name. When the former political enemy jefferson tried economic reforms, he found that he could not fundamentally shake the economic system created by this genius. It is said that the United States has prospered for hundreds of years because of the economic system created by him. (This can also be supplemented by understanding Central Bonds and Wall Street) The only time I cried was for hamilton's wife eliza, this kind woman not only forgave him for cheating, but also interviewed with her sister after his death who once drank blood with hamiton A fighter who fought hard, fulfilled his reputation. She even established many orphanages and helped many children. In their eyes, she saw alexander hamilton, a lonely and stubborn child who lost his mother at the age of 12 and set foot on the American soil alone.

Hamilton quotes

  • Aaron Burr: I strike him right between his ribs/I walk towards him/But I am ushered away/They row him back across the Hudson/I get a drink/I hear wailing in the streets/Somebody tells me "You'd better hide"/They say Angelica and Eliza were both at his side when he died/Death doesn't discriminate/Between the sinners and the saints/It takes and it takes and it takes/History obliterates/In every picture it paints/It paints me in all my mistakes/When Alexander aimed at the sky/He may have been the first one to die/But I'm the one who paid for it/I survived, but I paid for it/Now I'm the villain in your history/I was too young and blind to see/I should've known, I should've known the world was wide enough/For both Hamilton and me/The world was wide enough/For both Hamilton and me.
