“这是一起孤立事件，非常不同寻常。一个坏人做了一件非常邪恶的事，这在任何社区都有可能发生。”9月14日，正在上海访问的劳纳在接受澎湃新闻（www.thepaper.cn）采访时如此辩称。而章莹颖所在的伊利诺伊大学香槟分校（UIUC）副校长塞德尔（Edward Seidel）坐在他身边，神情专注。

发帖数: 897 | 43 It’s official: Donald Trump is the first major party nominee since Gerald
Ford not to release his tax returns during the presidential campaign.
The Republican nominee announced his bid for the White House on June 16,
2015, from the lobby of Trump Tower, the gleaming Manhattan symbol of his
real estate empire. Almost immediately after he did so, questions began to
swirl about his net worth and how much of it he would use to bankroll his
campaign.
So the following month, in July, Trump’s campaign ... 阅读全帖 |

国联邦政府的风风雨雨更多是意识形态的对立，还有媒体炒作的笑料。真正影响老百姓
生活的应该是地方政府。
英国路透社发表了对美国伊利诺伊州众议长麦迪甘的专题报道。在报道中，记者深入挖
掘了执掌州众议长大权32年的麦迪甘和濒临崩溃的伊利诺伊州财政系统之间的联系。同
时，还从细节入手，揭示了麦迪甘如何靠党同伐异，利用公共资源给自己和党羽大开方
便之门的内幕。
从前，每当人们提起美国的政治制度先进性的时候，言必称三权分立，民主选举。但是
，从麦迪甘的故事中，可以一窥这个制度设计一旦被有心人操控后会成为一个怎样难解
的死胡同。

标 题: 欧巴马的老巢芝加哥十分眼红威州拿到富士康设厂订单
发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Fri Jul 28 11:11:17 2017, 美东)
位在伊利诺州的欧巴马的老巢芝加哥，在民主党跟欧巴马英明的领导下，治安飙亮红灯
，芝加哥每晚都有黑帮械斗、枪击案死人。 伊州今年还宣告破产，市府陷入财政危机。
2016年大选，同为民主党蓝州的威斯康辛州忽然反水改投共和党川普，今年富士康飨应
川普美国制造口号，准备在川普推荐的威州东南部诱U一代8K面板厂，并誓言把威州打
造成科技制造业重镇威谷 (Wisconn Valley)。
对此芝加哥当地报纸写的社论十分眼红。 芝加哥人眼红也没用，隔壁的威州改投川普
后，今年开始有商业活动了，伊州经济还是一摊死水。等到2020年大选，芝加哥的左逼
到底该投谁，已经很明白了。
