A documentary with such strong emotions, of course, cannot be objective, but the director has not concealed his position. Although the background is unique, the young director actually does not have a deep understanding of the nature of this democratic chaos. The rightists can stimulate economic development, but they do not care about the life and death of the people at the bottom. The gap between the rich and the poor is widening. To a certain extent, it will lead to sluggish consumption and require the leftists to come to power (otherwise it will be a revolution). The leftists are doing better in redistribution. If they catch the wind of world economic expansion (selling raw materials can make a lot of money), it can improve domestic consumer demand and enter a positive cycle. However, the leftists cannot mobilize the enthusiasm for production, and eventually the development momentum will be exhausted. After stagnation, the people returned to demand the rightists to come to power. As for corruption, this is a weakness of human nature. The democratic system itself cannot contain it. The leftists and the right are the same. The biggest problem is that capital has the ability to flow globally. Unless all countries maintain high taxes on property, countries that try to balance the left and right can only harvest the middle class, lower the middle class, and completely divide the society. Now all the so-called healthy olives All are at stake. This is the typical prisoner's dilemma.
