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.

2022年12月份70城中 近八成新房售价环比下降******

  本报记者 孟 珂

  1月16日,国家统计局发布数据显示,去年12月份,70个大中城市中商品住宅销售价格下降城市个数有所增加,各线城市商品住宅销售价格环比持平或下降,一线城市同比上涨、二三线城市同比下降。

  从环比看,去年12月份,70个大中城市中,新建商品住宅销售价格环比下降城市有55个,比11月份增加4个;二手住宅销售价格环比下降城市有63个,比11月份增加1个。

  广东省城规院住房政策研究中心首席研究员李宇嘉在接受《证券日报》记者采访时表示,房价下跌城市增加,当下楼市供给需求两端表现仍然偏弱。“三支箭”落地需要推进,特别是商品房销售还较为低迷,开发商资金链依旧紧张,降价促销是房企不得不为的选择。

  具体来看,去年12月份,一线城市新建商品住宅销售价格环比由11月份下降0.2%转为持平。二手住宅销售价格环比下降0.5%,降幅比11月份扩大0.1个百分点。其中,北京、上海新房价格分别环比上涨0.2%、0.4%,广州、深圳新房价格分别环比下降0.4%、0.3%;二手房方面,北上广深价格均环比下降,降幅分别为0.4%、0.5%、0.6%、0.5%。

  此外,二线城市新建商品住宅销售价格环比下降0.3%,降幅比11月份扩大0.1个百分点;二手住宅销售价格环比下降0.4%,降幅与11月份相同。三线城市新建商品住宅销售价格环比下降0.3%,降幅与11月份相同;二手住宅销售价格环比下降0.4%,降幅比11月份收窄0.1个百分点。

  从同比看,去年12月份,70个大中城市中,新建商品住宅销售价格同比下降城市有53个,比11月份增加2个;二手住宅销售价格同比下降城市有64个,个数与11月份相同。

  去年12月份,一线城市新建商品住宅销售价格同比上涨2.5%,涨幅与11月份相同;二手住宅销售价格同比上涨0.6%,涨幅比11月份回落0.6个百分点。二线城市新建商品住宅销售价格同比下降1.1%,降幅比11月份收窄0.1个百分点;二手住宅销售价格同比下降3.2%,降幅与11月份相同。三线城市新建商品住宅和二手住宅销售价格同比分别下降3.9%和4.8%,降幅均与11月份相同。

  中原地产首席分析师张大伟对《证券日报》记者表示,在多重因素影响下,去年标杆房企销售萎缩,土地市场流标持续,购房者信心不足,整体楼市持续低迷。

  值得关注的是,1月5日,中国人民银行网站发布消息称,近日,人民银行、银保监会发布《关于建立新发放首套住房个人住房贷款利率政策动态调整长效机制的通知》,决定建立首套住房贷款利率政策动态调整机制。

  据中指研究院监测显示,截至1月11日,年内已有22个省市发布22条楼市宽松政策,主要涉及优化限购政策、降低首付比例、提高公积金额度、发放购房补贴、优化预售资金监管等方面。

  例如:1月5日,据乌鲁木齐市房产局微信公众号消息,近日,新疆乌鲁木齐市人民政府发布《关于促进房地产业平稳发展的22条措施》中提到,2023年首次购买本市辖区范围内,面积130平方米(含)以内新建商品住房的,按税法规定缴纳契税并取得税务部门开具的契税完税凭证的纳税人,契税金额的50%由财政资金给予补贴。

  1月9日,东莞市住建局更新“莞e认购”小程序中的温馨提示内容,并对“关于差别化住房信贷政策”进行了调整。其中,对首次购买住房且无房无贷的居民家庭,贷款最低首付款比例为20%,利率下限为LPR-20BP(即4.1%)。

  展望后市,李宇嘉表示,近期政策全面发力,刚需不断释放,楼市预期向好。预计2023年二季度热点城市交易量将逐步企稳并缓慢回升,有望在下半年带动都市圈周围城市好转。(证券日报)
