After watching Catherine put on her business clothes and gradually like the city councilor's work, and integrate into it, Lynch left.

Members' work is not so specific. Catherine won the election by promoting education reform. Her main scope of work is education.

The current education system in Saibin is no different from that in other parts of the Federation, and there is no local university, so her work is relatively easy.

Just mediate the contradictions between students and the school, solve the demands of the school, and deal with some problems by yourself or directly hand them over to the mayor.

If this profession is a bit like anything, it may be like a vice mayor.

Her job is to help the mayor solve these special tasks within the scope of her exercise of powers.

In fact, it is not easy to be a councillor. The bad thing is that city councillors are a "loss making" job.

City councillors have a need for working hours and how many days they need to work at least every year.

Because the salary is relatively low, many city councillors are actually part-time.

These people have other decent jobs. Most of Catherine's "colleagues" are lawyers, teachers and business owners, as are those who lose the election.

For them, parliamentarians are a layer of identity.

Saibin is a small city, and there are no obvious social conflicts. Therefore, the working hours of local city Councillors shall not be less than 90 days a year.

So how to judge whether this person is working?

It means that people can find congressmen in the office, so they can say that they are working.

There is a sign at the door of each congressman's office, which not only has the names of congressmen, but also their working hours.

The day of the week to the day of the week, from what time to what time.

Catherine has an advantage over others. She doesn't have other part-time jobs. She can even give herself a vacation after the first three months. Anyway, this job can't pay much.

But her staff didn't advise her to do that, and neither did Lynch.

Lynch suggested that she work as long as possible, about four days a week, so that she can work 200 days a year.

She has much less experience than those from political families. Young people from those political families have often been exposed to such things since childhood.

When they show some political talent, their parents, uncles and aunts will take them to various activities.

Since childhood, I have been exposed to various government affairs. After going to school, I can enter the student union for "Internship" in advance. After they really enter the job, they can immediately reflect the gap with ordinary people.

Sometimes you have to admit that the more powerful the powerful, the richer the rich, and the poorer the poor.

The children of politicians will be politicians, the children of capitalists will be capitalists, and the children of the exploited will continue to be exploited.

Perhaps this is the reason why the education reform plan can get strong support. After all, for the middle and lower classes of society, the only way to change their own pattern and relatively cheap and peaceful is to learn.

Catherine needs more exercise, so go to work more.

She doesn't have to worry about money. Lynch has money.

After returning to buppen, Lynch was found by the president. In fact, he was also very concerned and worried about the educational reform.

This is actually quite normal.

He has been in office for one and a half years. The previous year, he was coordinating the relations between various departments of the federal government and placing some important people in important posts.

This involves too many behind the scenes benefit transmission and transactions. If you take someone else's position, you have to give others some corresponding compensation.

Now that the framework of the entire federal government has basically been established, he has to do something.

Time passes quickly. It's almost half the time since he won the election. If he doesn't do anything, it's likely that people will think that he is a president who will only deceive voters.

He always smiles. In fact, he is anxious. He doesn't want to be a joke. He can't even serve as president in such a good situation.

Education reform has become the most appropriate weapon for him to seek re-election. No matter what degree he does, the people will support him because he really does it. Whether he does it well or not is another matter.

Familiar office, familiar bad coffee.

"I've ordered takeout!" the president smiled and comforted Lynch.

Sometimes those idle people are really idle. They always stare at the hot water room. When there is a new coffee machine or hand grinder in the hot water room, they will jump up and down and frantically attack the president and the presidential palace in the media.

Blame the president for spending taxpayer money on enjoyment.

This has also led to the booming business of cafes around the presidential palace. A large number of people need to work in the presidential palace every day. When they need a cup of coffee to comfort themselves after they finish their intensive work and sit down, they must not want it to taste like dog shit.

Ordering takeout has become the fastest and best way not to make people boil.

In fact, many graduate interns who practice in the presidential palace order coffee for everyone.

Lynch pushed the coffee slightly into the table. "It doesn't matter. I don't like coffee very much."

"It's against my heart!" the president commented, smiled and said, "in fact, so am I."

After a pause, he began the core content of the conversation. He didn't have so much time to circle with Lynch, then talk briefly, go to dinner, and then talk deeply.

He is the president of the Federation. His work is so busy that he has almost no time for private life.

"I read the governor of York's report and Catherine's report. I'm very interested in this fair University. Can you tell me?"

Mr. President is very gentle. He is an old man. Not all the old people are very gentle. Maybe this is what Mr. Truman likes about him.

Gentle, not irritable, easy to convince, at least working for him will not be affected by bad temper.

Lynch nodded and asked the president, "what conditions do you think a fair university should have?"

The strategy of conversation, Mr. President began to think, about more than ten seconds, "admit more bottom people?"

It is neither new nor surprising to say the word "bottom" from the mouth of the president, because society must be stratified.

As long as there is some kind of unified rule, it will inevitably be graded around the ruling class. The federals do not intend to eliminate the class, and the people at the bottom will not feel offended. They also admit that they are the lower class and the lower class.

Lynch shook his head. "Wrong, Mr. President, what fairness needs is a measure, a content that allows us to provide a yardstick in some aspects."

"School is a place to learn. If there is anything that can provide you with a relatively fair measure, it must be academic achievement."

"Good students and poor students only need to look at their test papers."

"A child of a capitalist family will not have a total score of several tens more than others because of how rich his family is."

"Similarly, a child born in an ordinary family will not have scores less than others because his father is just an ordinary workshop worker."

"Capital families, rich families and poor families, no matter what kind of family background these students have, they are equal in scores."

The president nodded as if he understood something. "What about the interview and recommendation? Will it affect this fairness?"

Lynch asked again, "why do we rely on interviews and recommendations? If a child can get a good letter of recommendation, such as yours, or wants to pass the interview, I will recommend them to private schools."

"Going to fair school is just a waste of their real talent. Mr. President, everyone has different talents."

"Some people are born with the ability to learn. Some people are born with incomparable wealth. Others are born on the top of the mountain."

"Let what person, do what thing, perhaps this is fair."

The president seemed to have a clear understanding. He nodded in agreement with Lynch and said, "you're right. If they have such great skills, they can go to the Sanhedrin school. There's no need to go to the fair school."

He took a deep breath and straightened his chest slightly, "but if we set the admission standard as only the reference score as a condition, would it be too harsh?"

"As far as I know, the educational content of most high schools in China is relatively slow. If the scores are too high, most children may not go to college."

This is actually a misunderstanding of people in this era. Many people think that going to college can get a good job. In fact, this idea itself is wrong.

There are also many college students who do not have a good job. There is no inevitable connection between going to college and a good job.

Universities only give people more opportunities to start high, not necessarily.

"Mr. President, fairness does not mean that everyone is equal. If everyone is equal, the university will lose its value."

"Students' job is to study. If they can't even study well, why go to college?"

"I'd rather they save this money and invest it in the process of improving their lives than expensive tuition fees."

"The fairness we can provide is to give them a relative fairness."

"Let those who are willing to learn continue to learn."

"Keep those who don't want to study out of the University."

"We all know that college is the cheapest way to change the family environment, but no matter how cheap it is, it is also 'valuable (conditional)'"
