Struggle for life

[Voeux pieux ou pas, tout le monde commence à comprendre mais il va falloir arriver à l’heure car la lutte va être féroce. Autant commencer le plus vite possible] –alpha.b

President Obama opened the last year of his term with the State Of the Union Address in Washington, making a pitch for economic fairness and outlining a series of proposals for creating jobs, discouraging outsourcing of jobs and improving the economy. Obama outlined an economic agenda designed to create millions of jobs and boost manufacturing.

« No, we will not go back to an economy weakened by outsourcing, bad debt and phony financial profits, » Obama said in his State of the Union address to the Congress.

Obama said that those companies who preserve jobs in the US will get a bigger tax break but those outsourcing jobs will have to pay more.

« If you are an American manufacturer, you should get a bigger tax cut. If you are a high-tech manufacturer, we should double the tax deduction you get for making products here. And if you want to relocate in a community that was hit hard when a factory left town, you should get help financing a new plant, equipment, or training for new workers, » the US President said.

My message is simple. It’s time to stop rewarding businesses that ship jobs overseas, and start rewarding companies that create jobs right here in America. Send me these tax reforms, and I will sign them right away, “he added.

Blaming outsourcing among other issues for weakening of the US economy, Obama said, « No, we will not go back to an economy weakened by outsourcing, bad debt and phony financial profits. »

The Administration is also making it easier for American businesses to sell products all over the world.
« Two years ago, I set a goal of doubling US exports over five years. With the bipartisan trade agreements I signed into law, we are on track to meet that goal ahead of schedule.

Soon, there will be millions of new customers for American goods in Panama, Colombia, and South Korea. Soon, there will be new cars on the streets of Seoul imported from Detroit, and Toledo, and Chicago, » he said.

The President said that we can restore an economy where everyone gets a fair shot, everyone does their fair share, and everyone plays by the same set of rules.
