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.

价格“鱼跃”，口碑碎地******

　　杨月涵

　　鱼跃医疗血氧仪价格狂飙的故事迎来了最终章。2月1日，国家企业信用信息公示系统的消息显示，因哄抬血氧仪价格，鱼跃医疗被罚款270万元。

　　生产入库平均成本上涨47%，销售平均价格却上涨了131.78%，鱼跃医疗此前“血氧仪产品没有涨价，因成本上涨，取消了折扣和优惠”的说法，被调查后的铁证光速打脸。当天，鱼跃医疗发布公告回应称，积极配合调查，推进相应整改，杜绝类似情况再次发生。

　　逐利是企业的天性，但逐利本身与企业伦理从不是鱼与熊掌的关系。鱼跃医疗恰恰提供了一种标志性的反面教材——疫情本就属于重大公共卫生事件，扰乱医疗卫生用品价格，无异于战疫雪上加霜。

　　处罚书明确指出，鱼跃医疗在疫情期间推动血氧仪市场价格过快、过高上涨，“属于情节较重情形，符合从重情节”。

　　对鱼跃医疗来说，270万元的罚款可能九牛一毛。有网友为鱼跃医疗算过一笔账，每台血氧仪哄抬后的价格较成本上涨近200元，270万元的罚款不过只是1.3万台血氧仪的利润。

　　鱼跃医疗也在公告中强调，目前公司各项业务正常开展，本次行政处罚不会对公司业绩造成重大影响，未影响公司的正常经营。根据鱼跃医疗此前发布的财报，2022年前三季度，鱼跃医疗营收达51.16亿元。

　　资本市场看财报看数据，同样看口碑看人心。在血氧仪、家用制氧、家用无创呼吸机等市场，鱼跃医疗均占据头部位置，在血氧仪领域，此前鱼跃医疗的产品更是拿下了京东超70%的份额。

　　常理来说，越是知名企业，越该珍惜自己的羽毛。血氧仪成本不过几十元，作为国内医疗器械行业的头部企业，鱼跃医疗更应该为国民健康保驾护航，而不是趁火打劫，大赚特赚，这是典型的短视行为，因小失大，得不偿失。

　　换种角度想，在疫情的特殊时期下，当全社会的目光高度集中在血氧仪身上，鱼跃医疗但凡能够拿出一丝“保供稳价”的态度，便足以形成一波天然的流量和广告，何以落得如今一朝被罚，众人叫好的下场。

　　不是所有错误都能够用钱买单。鱼跃医疗这番操作，看似赚了一笔快钱，实则丢了人心，砸了招牌。钱没了能再赚，口碑重建却并非朝夕之功。

　　富贵险中求，也在险中丢，鱼跃医疗不是个例。市场经济是法治经济，从口罩、退烧药、抗原试剂等涉疫物资价格的疯涨，到核酸检测企业的乱象频出，始终藏着个别人、个别企业囤积居奇，哄抬物价趁火打劫，借“疫”生财最终逃不过恢恢法网。

　　对监管而言，在这种重大公共卫生事件中，罚款是事后处罚的手段之一，更重要的是在发现问题前置处理，需要监管执法部门积极承担起监管主体的责任，加大检查的力度，严查加上严惩，共同掐灭借“疫”生财，大发不义之财的苗头，让违法者不敢为、不能为。
