Uhlelo lwezezimali lwedijithali luphinde lwaba sematheni ngemuva kwesivumelwano se-PayPal esingu-$30 million noMnyango Wezobulungiswa wase-US. Inkampani yokukhokha eku-inthanethi ivale uphenyo lukahulumeni oluhlobene nohlelo lokutshalwa kwezimali olwasungulwa ngo-2020, phakathi kwegagasi lemibhikisho yomphakathi ngemuva kokubulawa kukaGeorge Floyd, okuhloswe ngalo ukusekela amabhizinisi aphethwe ngabantu abamnyama kanye namanye amaqembu angamelwe kahle ngokomlando.
Lesi sivumelwano, esingabandakanyi inhlawulo eqondile kuhulumeni, sihlanganisa i-PayPal yokuhoxisa imali eyizigidigidi eziyi-1.000 zamaRandi ekucutshungulweni kwezimali zokuthengiselana kwamabhizinisi amancane, okuholela cishe ku-$30 million emalini engenayo elahlekile. Lesi sinqumo sifike phakathi kwesimo sezepolitiki lapho uhulumeni kaTrump eqinise khona ingcindezi ngokumelene nezinqubomgomo zokuhlukahluka, ukulingana, kanye nokubandakanywa (i-DEI) kokubili emkhakheni womphakathi kanye nowangasese.
Umsuka wophenyo lukahulumeni mayelana nohlelo luka-2020
UMnyango Wezobulungiswa wanquma ukuhlola uhlelo lokutshalwa kwezimali olwaqalwa yi-PayPal ngoJuni 2020 , lapho inkampani imemezela ukuzibophezela okungu-$530 million ukusekela abamnyama kanye namanye amabhizinisi amancane angamelwe kahle kanye nemiphakathi e-United States. Leso sinyathelo sethulwe njengesikhwama samathuba ezomnotho esenzelwe ukuqinisa impilo yezezimali kanye nokufinyelela isikweletu sala maqembu.
Uphenyo lugxile ekunqumeni ukuthi uhlelo luphule yini uMthetho Wethuba Lesikweletu Elilinganayo , umthetho kahulumeni ovimbela ababolekisi ukuthi babandlulule abafaka izicelo zemalimboleko ngokusekelwe kuhlanga, umbala, imvelaphi yobuzwe, kanye nezinye izici ezivikelwe. Empeleni, uMnyango Wezobulungiswa ubuze ukuthi isakhiwo salolu hlelo sinikeze yini ukuphathwa okukhethekile, okubhekwa “njengokungekho emthethweni,” kumabhizinisi aphethwe ngabantu abamnyama kanye nabanye abantu abancane.
Ngokusho koMnyango Wezobulungiswa uqobo, isikhwama se-PayPal sasingahlobene nokulungisa icala elithile eliqinisekisiwe lokucwaswa kwangaphambilini , okwakhulisa ukungabaza kukahulumeni kaTrump mayelana nokuhambisana komklamo wohlelo nohlaka lwezomthetho lokulwa nokucwaswa kwe-United States. Lolu hlobo lokuhlaziya seluyinto evamile eminyakeni yamuva nje, luthinta izinhlelo eziningi zangasese ezisekela amaqembu asengozini.
Icala le-PayPal liyingxenye yochungechunge lophenyo oluqalwe uMnyango Wezobulungiswa kahulumeni kaTrump oluqondiswe ezinkampanini ezisebenzise izinqubomgomo zobandlululo . Phakathi nalokhu kuhlasela, amaRiphabhulikhi aphikise ngokuthi izinhlelo ezithile zokwehlukahlukana kwezinkampani zingaba nokubandlulula kwamanye amaqembu, ikakhulukazi amadoda kanye nabantu abamhlophe, okubangela impikiswano yezomthetho neyezepolitiki edlula inkampani eyodwa.
Amaphuzu abalulekile esivumelwano: ukuhoxiswa kwamakhomishini kanye nohlelo olusha
Ukuze kuxazululwe le nkinga yezomthetho, i-PayPal ivumile ukuhoxisa izimali zokucubungula cishe amaRandi ayizigidi eziyinkulungwane ekuthengiselaneni okwenziwe ngamabhizinisi amancane athile ase-US. Umthelela wezomnotho walokhu kuhoxiswa ulinganiselwa cishe kumaRandi ayizigidi ezingama-30, inani eliye laba yisisekelo esingokomfanekiso sesivumelwano.
Lokhu kukhululwa kuzosebenza emabhizinisini amancane ahlangabezana nezindinganiso ezithile: kumele abe ngawamasosha ase-US noma asebenze emikhakheni efana nezolimo, ukukhiqiza, noma ubuchwepheshe. Kuyaphawuleka ukuthi isitatimende soMnyango Wezobulungiswa asichazi ngokugcwele ukuthi kungani lezi zigaba ezithile zakhethwa, yize ngokwezepolitiki kuhambisana nenkulumo yokulondoloza yokusekelwa okukhethekile kwamasosha ase-US kanye nezimboni ezithile ezikhiqizayo.
Ngaphezu kokulahlekelwa yimali engenayo yekhomishini, inkampani izibophezele ekuqaliseni uhlelo olusha lwamabhizinisi amancane e-United States, oluklanywe kulokhu ngaphandle kokubheka uhlanga noma imvelaphi yabanikazi. Ngamanye amazwi, luhlelo oluhlose ukugcina umfutho wamabhizinisi amancane, kodwa ngaphansi kwemingcele ehambisana kakhulu nokuchazwa kohulumeni wamanje kwemithetho yokulwa nobandlululo.
Isici esibalulekile emakethe nakwezinye izinkampani ezinkulu zobuchwepheshe ukuthi isivumelwano asibeki izinhlawulo zemali eziqondile ukuze kuzuze uhulumeni wase-US. Akukho nhlawulo yendabuko , kodwa kunalokho ukuhoxiswa ngokuzithandela yi-PayPal kwemali engenayo yesikhathi esizayo, okuthi, empeleni, kube yizindleko zomnotho zokuxazulula icala. Le fomula ingahlolwa ngokucophelela ezinye izinkampani ezibhekene nophenyo olufanayo.
Akukho ukuvuma icala noma ukutholakala kokwephulwa komthetho
Idokhumenti yokuxazulula inkinga isho ngokusobala ukuthi i-PayPal "iyaphika ngokusobala noma yisiphi isibopho" esihlobene nohlelo luka-2020. Ngamanye amazwi, inkampani iphikelela ngokuthi ayivumi ukuthi yephule uMthetho Wethuba Lesikweletu Elilinganayo noma omunye umthetho kahulumeni ohlobene neSikhwama Sethuba Lezomnotho.
Okwamanje, uMnyango Wezobulungiswa ngokwawo ucacisa ukuthi awukakwenzi isinqumo esisemthethweni sokuthi i-PayPal yephule umthetho oshiwo ngenhla noma yimuphi omunye umthetho kahulumeni ohlobene. Ngokomthetho, isivumelwano sithatha indawo ephakathi nendawo: siqeda uphenyo ngezibopho zezimali kanye nokuhlelwa kabusha kohlelo, kodwa ngaphandle kokutholwa kwecala noma ukuvuma icala ohlangothini lwenkampani.
Lolu hlobo lwesivumelwano luvame kakhulu emkhakheni wezezimali wase-US, lapho izinkampani eziningi zikhetha ukuxazulula amacala okulawula ngaphandle kwecala elide ukuze kuncishiswe ukungaqiniseki futhi kugwenywe umonakalo omkhulu wedumela. Ngokwezinto ezingokoqobo, umyalezo emakethe uwukuthi i-PayPal ikhetha ukwamukela izindleko zokulahla ezinye zezindleko zayo kunokwandisa impi yezomthetho enomphumela ongaqiniseki.
Ngokuphathelene nedumela, iqiniso lokuthi akukho ukwephulwa okusemthethweni okutholiwe kuvumela inkampani ukuthi ivikele obala ukuba semthethweni kwezinhlelo zayo ngenkathi ikhombisa ukuguquguquka lapho ibhekene nezinkinga zomthetho. Kuhlala kuyibhalansi ebucayi phakathi kokubikezela ukuzibophezela kwezenhlalo, futhi ngesikhathi esifanayo, ukugwema ukungqubuzana nokuchazwa kwamanje kwemithetho yokulwa nobandlululo.
Isitatimende esisemthethweni se-PayPal kanye nokuhlasela i-DEI
Ngemva kokumenyezelwa kwesivumelwano, i-PayPal igcizelele indima yayo njengomdlali obalulekile ohlelweni lwebhizinisi elincane . Okhulumela inkampani uphawule ukuthi, iminyaka engaphezu kwamashumi amabili, le nkundla isize amabhizinisi amaningi ukuthi aqalise, akhule futhi achume ngokunikeza ukufinyelela kumathuluzi ezezimali edijithali kanye nezixazululo zokukhokha online.
Le nkampani iphinde yagomela ngokuthi i-Small Business Initiative ezayo—igama elilisebenzisa kwezinye izimemezelo zabezindaba ukuze libhekisele ohlelweni lwayo olusha—ihlose ukunikeza amabhizinisi amancane e-United States “amathuba ezomnotho engeziwe .” Ngalokhu engqondweni, i-PayPal izama ukuhlanganisa isivumelwano noMnyango Wezobulungiswa hhayi njengokuhoxa, kodwa njengesinyathelo sokuqhubeka nokusekela amabhizinisi, ivumelanisa indlela yayo nezidingo zamanje zomthetho.
Okwamanje, uhulumeni kaTrump usebenzise leli cala njengesibonelo senqubomgomo yawo "yokuqeda i-DIE engekho emthethweni" emkhakheni wezinkampani. I-Acting Attorney General uTodd Blanche ugcizelele ukuthi isivumelwano ne-PayPal siyingxenye yesithembiso sikamongameli sokususa ezinkampanini zaseMelika noma yimuphi umkhuba, ngokombono kahulumeni, osebenzisa uhlanga noma imvelaphi yobuzwe ukubandlulula izakhamuzi ezifanelekayo.
Eminyakeni yamuva nje, i-White House iqinise ingcindezi yayo ngokumelene nezinhlelo zokwehlukahlukana kanye nokulingana ezicini eziningi: kusukela kubasebenzi bakahulumeni kuya kosonkontileka bakahulumeni kanye nezinkampani ezinkulu. Umongameli ubize izinqubomgomo ezithile zokwehlukahlukana kanye nokulingana njengezingafanele futhi ezingafanele emaqenjini afana nabesilisa kanye nabantu abamhlophe, okudala ukungezwani nezinhlangano zamalungelo omphakathi kanye nezingxenye zezemfundo kanye namabhizinisi.
Ingxoxo yezomthetho neyezenhlalo mayelana nokuhlukahluka
Izinhlangano zamalungelo omphakathi kanye namaqembu ahlukahlukene ochwepheshe asabela ngokukhathazeka ngalezi zenzo. Ngokombono wazo, izinhlelo zokuhlukahluka kanye nokulingana ezinkampanini nasezikhungweni zemfundo akuzona izinhlelo zezabelo ezingekho emthethweni, kodwa kunalokho ziyithuluzi lokubhekana nokungalingani kwasendulo okuthinta abesifazane, abantu be-LGBTQ+, kanye nezizwe ezincane, phakathi kwamanye amaqembu.
Kulesi simo, icala le-PayPal lijoyina uhlu olukhulayo lwezinhlelo zangasese ezihlolwa nguhulumeni wobumbano. Isihluthulelo sempikiswano ukuthi ukukhulisa amaqembu athile ayebandlululwa ngokomlando kungabhekwa njengohlobo lokubandlulula okuphambene namanye amaqembu, noma ukuthi lezi ziyizinyathelo ezilinganayo zokulungisa ukungalingani okuqhubekayo ekufinyeleleni kwezimali, umsebenzi, noma imfundo.
Isibonelo, ngenyanga edlule, izinhlangano eziningana ezimele othisha basemanyuvesi kanye namabhizinisi aphethwe ngabantu abambalwa zaya enkantolo ukuze zizame ukuvimba imizamo kahulumeni kaTrump yokuchitha izinhlelo ze-DEI zosonkontileka bakahulumeni. Ecaleni labo, bathi le mikhawulo yephula inkululeko yokukhuluma evikelwe yiSichibiyelo Sokuqala soMthethosisekelo wase-US.
Nakuba lokhu kuyimpikiswano yaseMelika ngokuyinhloko, imiphumela yako ibhekwe kakhulu eYurophu naseSpain. Izinkampani eziningi zobuchwepheshe nezezimali zamazwe ngamazwe ezikhona emakethe yaseYurophu, okuhlanganisa ne-PayPal, zivumelanisa izinhlelo zazo zokuhlukahluka emhlabeni jikelele, kodwa kumele zivumelane nezinhlaka zomthetho ezihlukene kakhulu, kusukela emithethweni kahulumeni wase-US kuya emithethweni ye-EU yokulingana nokungabandlululi.
Umthelela ongaba khona kubasebenzisi, ama-SME kanye nezimakethe zaseYurophu
Kubasebenzisi baseYurophu namabhizinisi amancane asebenzisa i-PayPal nsuku zonke, isivumelwano noMnyango Wezobulungiswa asisho ukuthi kuzoshintshwa ngokushesha izimali noma imigomo ngaphakathi kwe-European Union. Lesi sivumelwano sigxile ezinhlelweni ezithile zama-SME ase-US kanye nokuchazwa kwemithetho kahulumeni wase-US, ngakho-ke asishintshi ngokuqondile uhlaka lokulawula lwaseYurophu.
Kodwa-ke, lezi zinhlobo zamacala zivame ukuba nomthelela ongaqondile endleleni amapulatifomu amakhulu aklama ngayo izinhlelo zawo zokusekela ibhizinisi lomhlaba wonke . I-PayPal nezinye izinkampani zobuchwepheshe cishe zizobuyekeza izinhlelo zazo zokuxhasa noma zokusekela amaqembu athile ngokuningiliziwe, zifuna izakhiwo ezihambisana nemithetho yase-US kanye nemiyalelo yaseYurophu yokuphathwa ngokulinganayo.
Ngokombono we-eCommerce eSpain, lezi zindaba ziqokomisa izinga izinqumo zomthetho e-United States ezingathonya ngalo amasu abadlali ababalulekile ekukhokheni kwedijithali. Nakuba amabhizinisi aseSpain engathinteki ngqo yisivumelwano sokukhululwa kwemali esifinyelelwe noMnyango Wezobulungiswa, angabona, esikhathini esiphakathi, izinguquko ezinhlelweni zokukhuthaza zomhlaba wonke noma ezintweni eziza kuqala enkampanini zokutshalwa kwezimali emphakathini.
Ezimakethe zezimali, ingcindezi yokulawula neyezepolitiki mayelana ne-invoyisi ye-elekthronikhi (i-EII) yenezela kwezinye izici ezivele zithinta ukulinganiswa kwemakethe yesitoko yezinkampani eziningi zobuchwepheshe. Ukuvela kwentengo yamasheya ye-PayPal ku-Nasdaq kubonisa umongo obanzi wokuncintisana okukhulu ekukhokheni kwedijithali kanye nokuzwela kwabatshalizimali kunoma yikuphi ukukhomba kwengozi yedumela noma yezomthetho, okuyinto abatshalizimali baseYurophu abayiqapha eduze.
Isivumelwano samaRandi ayizigidi ezingama-30 phakathi kwe-PayPal noMnyango Wezobulungiswa senza isithombe esiyinkimbinkimbi: ipulatifomu enkulu yokukhokha evikela ukuba semthethweni kohlelo lwayo lwango-2020, uhulumeni ozimisele ukunciphisa ububanzi bezinqubomgomo zakhe ze-Digital Income Support (DIS), kanye nempikiswano yezomthetho neyezenhlalo edlula kakhulu leli cala elithile. Zonke izinkomba zisikisela ukuthi, kokubili e-United States naseYurophu, izinkampani zobuchwepheshe nezezimali kuzodingeka ziqhubeke ngokucophelela ukuze zihlanganise izinhlelo ezisekela amaqembu asengozini ngokuhambisana ngokuqinile nemithetho yokungabandlululi kanye nokuncintisana ezimakethe ezihlolisiswa kakhulu.
