In order for a society to prosper and develop, and to be full of vitality and energy, it must constantly engage in theoretical innovation. People's nature is the essential attribute of Marxism, and the theory of the Party is derived from, for, and for the benefit of the people. The creative practice of the people is an inexhaustible source of theoretical innovation.

1. The people are the creators of history

Marx and Engels systematically pondered the relationship between human beings and history, believing that the primary prerequisite for human history is the existence of a living individual. They pointed out that history is the history of a living, material form of human beings, rather than the history of spirit or will. The basic viewpoint of Marxist materialist historical view is that social existence determines social consciousness, and production mode determines social development. Material production activities are the basic conditions of all history, and all social life is essentially practical. Marx clearly pointed out in his Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts of 1844 that history is "nothing more than the process of human birth through human labor, and it is the process of natural generation for humans.". Human beings create history through their own practical activities, and social history is composed of human practical activities. Human beings are the true subject of social history.

The people are the creators of material and spiritual wealth. The Marxist materialist view of history holds that the practical activities of the people not only create an objectified material world, but also a rich spiritual world. The people are the creators of material wealth. The production of material means is a prerequisite for all history, and without a certain amount of material means of production, there can be no human history. The material resources necessary for human survival and development are produced by the vast majority of the people. As the main body of material production activities, the people continuously accumulate production experience, innovate and create production technologies, and promote the development of productive forces and the growth of social material wealth in practice. The people are also creators of spiritual wealth. Social existence determines social consciousness, which is a reflection of social existence. The production practice of the people provides a material basis for the creation of spiritual wealth, and all spiritual wealth is rooted in the practical activities of the people.

The main practical activities of the people constitute the foundation of social life, and all social changes are based on this foundation. While the people create material and spiritual wealth, they also create and transform social production relations. Any social change cannot be separated from the active participation of the people, and cannot be separated from the full play of their enthusiasm and initiative. Marx and Engels pointed out that "historical activities are the activities of the masses, and as historical activities deepen, they will inevitably lead to the expansion of the masses.". Although heroic figures have also played an important role in historical development and change, social change ultimately depends on the will, wishes, and interests of the general public. From the perspective of historical materialism, only the people are the true creators of history and the fundamental driving force behind social change and reform.

2. The creative practice of the people is an inexhaustible source of theoretical innovation

A great era requires great theories. The Resolution of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on the Significant Achievements and Historical Experience of the Party's Centennial Struggle takes "adhering to theoretical innovation" as one of the historical experiences of the CPC's centennial struggle, and points out that "as long as we are brave to combine new practice and constantly promote theoretical innovation, and are good at guiding new practice with new theories, Marxism will certainly show a stronger and more persuasive force of truth in China." The reason why our party can make major achievements in various historical periods is that we have mastered the scientific theory of Marxism and continue to promote theoretical innovation in combination with new reality. We must continuously deepen our understanding of the regularity of the Party's theoretical innovation, and achieve more fruitful theoretical innovation results in the new era and new journey.

The Marxist materialist view of history points out that theory is a social consciousness primarily based on rationality, and theoretical innovation is a need for the unity of social existence and social consciousness. It cannot be separated from the objective law that social existence determines social consciousness, and social consciousness reacts on social existence. The human understanding of truth is extracted and summarized through the cyclic process of material and spiritual production, from sensibility to rationality and then to practice. Theoretical innovation must be based on social practice, and the subject of practice is the people. Marxism clarifies the subject position of the people in social production practice and points out the "creative" essence of the people in complex social practice processes. Marxism is a theory of making a speech for and on behalf of the people. It is founded to change the fate of the people and enriched and developed in the practice of the people's liberation. The CPC is a party guided by Marxism. To promote the Party's theoretical innovation, it must be closely combined with the people's creative practice. The people's creative practice is an inexhaustible source of Marxist theoretical innovation.

The theoretical innovation achievements of the Party all originate from the wisdom, exploration, and creation of the people. Adhering to the principle of people first is a profound summary of the valuable experience of the CPC over the past century and an unswerving pursuit of value, and an important embodiment of the Marxist concept of people. History created the CPC in the people's exploration and struggle, and the CPC led the people to create a new historical glory. During the period of the new democratic revolution and the socialist revolution and construction, the CPC, with Comrade Mao Zedong as the main representative, combined the basic principles of Marxism with the specific reality of China, adhered to the integration of theory with practice, closely linked with the masses, absorbed the wisdom of the masses and relied on the strength of the people with the strong support and sincere support of the masses, and created Mao Zedong Thought through hard exploration. Comrade Mao Zedong pointed out, "As long as we rely on the people, firmly believe that the creativity of the people is endless, and therefore trust the people, and get along with them, then any difficulty can be overcome.". In the new era of reform, opening up and socialist modernization, the CPC people continue to rely on the creative practice of the people and lead the cause development with theoretical innovation. In the late 1970s, the "big package" practice from Xiaogang Village in Fengyang, Anhui Province directly opened the prelude to China's rural reform. The major theoretical innovations of the Party all originate from the creative practice of the people, demonstrating their creative wisdom.

3. To promote the theoretical innovation of the Party, we must follow the mass line well

To promote the theoretical innovation of the Party, it is necessary to conduct in-depth investigations and research among the people. The people are the creators of history and the decisive force in promoting social development and change. Investigation and research are the heirloom of our party, the foundation of planning and the way to success. Investigation and research are the source of true knowledge and insightful insights.Conducting in-depth investigations and research among the people is the foundation for continuously advancing the theoretical innovation of the Party, and it is also a practical need to always maintain a clear and firm understanding of solving the unique problems of the Party, and to answer the "Six How to Always". Promoting the theoretical innovation of the Party must not be done behind closed doors, sit idly by, or become mere fantasies.The social practice activities of the people are not only the objects of our investigation and research, but also the inexhaustible source of our correct understanding. The people not only have the best understanding of the actual situation, but also contain the wisdom and strength to solve problems. Only by doing a good job in investigation and research can we continuously promote the theoretical innovation of the Party.

Promoting the theoretical innovation of the Party must respect the pioneering spirit of the people.Respecting the pioneering spirit of the people is determined by the nature and purpose of our party, which embodies the historical values of Marxism. The development of society is always based on fully exerting human subjective initiative and respecting human pioneering spirit. The will, wishes, demands, and practices of the people reflect the trend of social development and reflect the laws of social development. At present, the changes in the world, the times, and history are unfolding in unprecedented ways. The "two overall situations" are accelerating and deeply interacting. China's development has entered a period of strategic opportunities and risks coexisting, with an increase in uncertain and unpredictable factors. It is even more necessary for us to adhere to the people-centered approach, respect the pioneering spirit of the people, fully stimulate the creative power hidden among the people, pay attention to the unity of top-level design and inquiry with the people, continuously obtain new understanding, make new summaries, and form new achievements from summarizing the creative practices of the people, and continue to promote the theoretical innovation of the Party.

Let the Party's innovative theory penetrate into the hearts of billions of people. The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out the need to "build a socialist ideology with strong cohesion and leadership" and "improve the system of arming the entire Party with innovative theories of the Party, educating the people, and guiding practical work". To unleash great power, great ideas must be transformed into concrete social practice, rely on the people as the main body of social practice, and make innovative theories consciously recognized and sincerely supported by the people, making them a powerful ideological weapon that guides the people to understand and transform the world.We must establish a people-centered work orientation, combine serving the people with guiding them to learn the Party's innovative theories, grasp the theoretical concerns of the people, continuously innovate theoretical propaganda methods, and focus on making the Party's innovative theories deeply rooted in the hearts of millions of people, becoming a theory that is grounded, gathers people's wisdom, conforms to public opinion, and wins the hearts of the people. This will gather a powerful force to comprehensively build a socialist modernized country and promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

On the evening of June 1st, the US Senate passed a bill on the federal government's debt ceiling and budget, and the flame of the US debt bomb was temporarily extinguished at the last moment. The two parties in the United States have staged an extreme tug of war over the US debt bomb. Some experts believe that the US debt crisis is the result of the reckless politics promoted by the US dollar hegemony, and the underlying cause of this crisis is the highly polarized political system of the US. Since the end of World War II, the US Congress has adjusted the debt ceiling more than a hundred times. The recurring debt crisis will not only have a catastrophic impact on the US economy and people's livelihoods, but also continuously erode the value of US dollar assets such as government credit and US bonds, bringing significant and far-reaching impacts to the global economic landscape. 【
