1931年,富兰克林·罗斯福即将登上美国总统宝座。罗斯福提出解决美国经济危机的方案是“新政”,但因“新政”尚未得势,所以很多企业家对“新政”持怀疑态度,在经营决策中举棋不定。而哈默通过深入研究当时国内的政治形势,认定罗斯福会掌握美国政权。一旦罗斯福得势,1920年公布的禁酒令就会被废除。哈默顺着这条思路想下去:到那时,威士忌和啤酒的生产量会十分惊人,市场上则需要大 In 1931, Franklin Roosevelt was about to enter the US presidential throne. Roosevelt proposed a solution to the U.S. economic crisis as a “New Deal,” but because the “New Deal” has not yet gained momentum, many entrepreneurs are skeptical of the “New Deal,” and are indecisive in their business decisions. Hammer, through in-depth study of the domestic political situation at that time, determined that Roosevelt would control the U.S. regime. Once Roosevelt was in power, the Prohibition Order announced in 1920 would be abolished. Hammer thinks along this line of thought: By that time, the production of whiskey and beer will be very alarming, and the market will need to be large.
