		<description><![CDATA[Change in life patterns is an essential requirement of life and should be preferred to experience progress.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><p>Some people enjoy change, and they look forward to new experiences. Others reminiscent of their lives to stop the same, and they do not vary their everyday habits.</p>
<p>&nbsp;<img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2012/05/26/change1_1.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="446" /></p>
<p>A number of individuals like to live in the alike house, give birth to the same job and lifestyle all their lives. However, others aspire to changes and new experience. Personally, for the quite a few reasons, which I strength of character give explanation below.</p>
<p>First of all, changes in one&#8217;s life bring many benefits. One tries new things, gains new comprehension and experience. I think it is great for the reason that the lacking changes soul becomes boring. I am forever trying to make changes in my life. Moreover, whilst I sense that my kick is boring I do not sense attractively about it. I feel akin to my tired individuals living for nothing. I did not do anything exiting, I learnt zilch appealing and I moral washed out my time.</p>
<p>Second of all, populate need changes. Furthermore, we requisite obstacles to overcome and make our goals. I suppose that changes appoint us stronger, more persistent, added self-confident, and more patient. Also, I touch that all people who succeeded in living in the vein of the changes and new experience as it is impossible to be the greatest at a little field without perfecting the existing knowledge and gain new experience. People catch every opening to gather more and modification their life for the better.</p>
<p>From the other side, colonize who like their lives to stay the constant are very permanent. They produce the same job all their life, the unaffected habits, the same weekend and even the same time in being out. I think it is boring. Pardon? Determination they let know their children approaching their lives? Come again? Kind of part will they do for the society? I think such ancestors are just frightened of the changes.</p>
<p>I ponder curiosity and aspiration to the new experience are two of the main reasons of human evolution. Nation for ever and a day wanted to break limits and get more knowledge and experience. So, people who enjoy revolution are the engine of human development.</p></p>

		<description><![CDATA[You may have been a victim of identity theft and felt teh frustration of trying to correct the problem. It can be a long battle and money spent just trying to rectify the identity theft.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Identity theft is a very emotional crime for the victim. They may spent lots of time trying to correct the credit and contacting their banks because of fraudulent charges. This could be quite frustrating but I&#8217;m sure its more frustrating if you know who is committing such a crime but no one would help. What if they kept diverting your mail to a different address? What if you found out that your bank card was charged? You may start feeling helpless and angry because of the attacks you are receiving. You must fight back because if you don&#8217;t than they will keep doing it and others will feel exactly what you&#8217;re feeling.</p>
<p>Those who commit this type of crime feel that they are invincible. They believe that the law will do nothing or it will take so long that it wouldn&#8217;t matter anyway. You may want to put a whammy on them but don&#8217;t. They will get caught&nbsp;just not in your time frame. They will slip up and than the law will have enough evidence to take them in. If its say a mother in-law than she may just want to frustrate you. So what she has people helping her like those in the post office. You can get around that by writing every agency you know. So hold on a change is surely coming.</p>
<p>Identity&nbsp;thieves are a nuisance and it can take a long time trying to catch these bad guys. keep your head up and continue to make a difference. No one wants to be a victim of identity theft but it happens, especially in this bad economy. You must relax and do what is necessary to get your life back. Identity Thieves you won&#8217;t win!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Frustration can sometimes get out of control and make people do some crazy things.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We all get frustrated at some point in our lives. Frustration can cause us to experience many issues. When someone continues to upset us we may lash out on others who have nothing to do with the situation. You may scream at family members or stop talking to friends because you are having a difficult time dealing with problems that constantly affects you. You should try and relax in a different setting and perhaps take long walks to calm you down. Being frustrated is not good for your health. You may experience chest pains because your situation is so out of control. If you have to talk to someone who can be bias about your situation maybe they have some encouraging words that will help relieve your tensions.</p>
<p>Many experience frustrations throughout their lives and have no clue how to deal with it. They may even go so far as to try and take their life or the life of another. Its very important to deal with the problems with a clear head and talking them through will help a great deal. make a list of what makes you frustrated and why so that you&#8217;ll prioritize which ones to deal with first. Make a habit to take breaths in and out when you feel over whelmed or down right frustrated. Always make an attempt to relieve the cycle of frustration.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220; In the dark mist of my dreams I saw my brothers. The three dark figures silently beckoned me to follow them. They led me over the goat path, across the bridge, to the house of sinful women. We walked across the well-worn path in silence.&#8221;

A discussion about the issues surrounding Tony&#8217;s perspective in this passage, explaining what they foreshadow about the life lessons he will gain during this time of his young life.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the issues surrounding Antonio&#8217;s perspective in this passage is the issue of innocence. In his dream, Antonio is led across the bridge that separates his house from the city. The river symbolizes the separation of the innocence of Antonio from the corrupt actions of the town. For the most part, Antonio follows an innocent and righteous path.&nbsp; In this dream he is following the path that he has never taken in real life. This foreshadows the fact that he will also learn that not everyone follows a righteous and moral path in life. In fact he will learn that there are many people that choose the corrupt route to the house of the sinful women. He will also learn that he has the choice to follow well-worn path of sin or take the moral high road. Antonio following his brother on the path to the house of sinful women pertains to the issue of Antonio helping his brothers keep their innocence. This foreshadows that Antonio will learn that he has the ability to help people in their moral struggles, but in the end, it is their choice which path they choose.</p>
<p>Another issue surrounding Antonio&#8217;s perspective in this passage is the issue of family. In Antonio&#8217;s dream he is beckoned by his brothers to join them on the corrupt path across the bridge. Antonio must choose to follow the moral path that he normally takes or to follow the path of his brothers. This foreshadows that Antonio will find that his brothers are not following a pure path and are instead indulging in the sinful women from his dream. Antonio will learn the life lesson that he has the power to help his brothers. He will also learn that it is his choice to help them back to the moral path or let them continue sinning. Antonio&#8217;s perspective is from the side of a family member which makes his decision even more important. If he chooses to let them continue sinning it will tarnish the family&#8217;s image and make his own moral maturation seem like less of an accomplishment. This foreshadows that his spiritual and moral struggles are not just about him, they are also about his family and loved ones.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[This is a persuasive speech I wrote for communications class. It's my opinion on the Atomic bomb dropped on Japan during World War II. Read and enjoy!! :) Very professional.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&rsquo;s early morning on August 6th, 1945, calm and clear like any other day, until a blinding light fell from the skies and shook the Earth beneath an entire nation. People were blinded, burned, and some even vaporized, and with this in mind, another ground-shattering explosion hit that same nation three days later. Some cry in pain, others are silenced by death, but we won WWII, so it&rsquo;s&nbsp;<i>totally</i>&nbsp;justified. The first and only time atomic weaponry was put to use was during August 6th&nbsp;and 9th&nbsp;of 1945 when Fat Man and Little Boy were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan. Atomic bombs haven&rsquo;t been used after that, but the threat of their use has plagued our lives ever since. With the help of Robert Oppenheimer, Enrico Fermi, and other nuclear scientists alike, the U.S. discovered and used the most destructive weapon mankind has ever wielded. I believe that the atomic bomb is something that shouldn&rsquo;t have been used and should never be used again.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Before we get into the controversy behind these explosives, let&rsquo;s learn some history behind them. Prior to this event, Adolf Hitler had killed himself and Germany surrendered, but the Japanese were still fighting. Roosevelt had been devising ways for the U.S. to get Japanese compliance in a peaceful matter, but he died in office before getting far enough. Truman now took office and authorized a secret organization for the development of an atomic bomb (known as the Manhattan Project), and planned on using it. Since Germany was no longer at war with us, Japan was to be the victim. Choosing which cities to plot was a difficult decision, but it was finally decided that Hiroshima and Nagasaki would be prime targets because they were virtually untouched by any other air raid that had occurred until that time. The bombs were dropped on each city, three days apart, killing between 100-300k civilians in all, and leaving both cities in rubble and radiation stricken. We did this because the U.S. wanted unconditional surrender&nbsp;from Japan, which we did, and believe it or not, it wasn&rsquo;t even a controversial issue until after the war ended.</p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Some people claim that the bombing was a necessary step to winning World War II. The first reason they think this is because Truman convinced the country that it was the best option! It was effective for getting unconditional surrender from Japan, and for lessening U.S. casualties by avoiding an invasion. It was something &lsquo;quick, easy, and effective.&rsquo; Another view point is that, we created it, why not have us be the very first to use it? It&rsquo;s our right! It&rsquo;s said that if it wouldn&rsquo;t have been dropped on Japan, then it would have destroyed Germany, either way, the bomb&rsquo;s use would be inevitable. Lastly, it&rsquo;s justified in total war, which is being involved in a war that cannot be won without warfare of some kind, the enemy being completely destroyed.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;While some think it was fine to use the atomic bomb, others disagree. Some people think that it was totally unnecessary to use it and that there were other ways to win the war. We could have invaded the main Japanese island, though having more casualties, or we could have used a blockade tactic on Japanese harbors. We could have also bombed military bases, keeping civilians out of the destruction. Not only that, but the long-term effects were worse than the benefits. More peaceful methods could have been used instead of this immoral uranium-based killer, and besides that, it lead to the arms race! The Cold War was costly and completely useless to have gotten involved in.</p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I believe that the atomic bomb should never have been used on Japan. The first reason I say this is because our president wasn&rsquo;t being entirely honest. Before putting the Manhattan Project into action, President Truman had sent a letter to Einstein about the atomic bomb. Einstein replied, stating that while it would be a phenomenal technological advancement, it would have to be used once it was created, no matter what. And boy was he right. As stated earlier, if not Japan, Germany would have taken the hit from the bomb. Also, when Truman&rsquo;s diary was discovered in 1979, he wrote that though he&rsquo;d gotten many attempts from Japan to surrender on fair terms, he was unwilling to barter. With Japan&rsquo;s German allies defeated, Japan was weakening rapidly. Robert Messer, a historian from&nbsp;&nbsp;the University of Illinois concludes that &ldquo;prior to November 1st,&nbsp;Japan&nbsp;would have surrendered even if the&nbsp;atomic&nbsp;bombs had not been dropped, even if Russia had not entered the war, and even if no invasion had been planned or contemplated.&rdquo; We also could have specified our &lsquo;unconditional surrender.&rdquo; The reason they were unwilling to surrender was because they thought they were going to lose their emperor. We could have simply stated that they could keep their emperor (much like we did after the War).That would have been faster and easier to do. Dropping the Atomic Bomb wasn&rsquo;t seen as immoral until after the war; but wouldn&rsquo;t it have been obvious that the bomb was a problem if Roosevelt wanted peace instead? All Japan wanted was a way out, and Truman stubbornly ignored them.</p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Each arguing side has their reasons to believe they are right in the debate of the dropping of the atomic bomb, but in reality, it was ridiculous to use it. We could have restated our unconditional surrender to let them know they&nbsp;<i>could</i>&nbsp;keep their emperor. We could have&nbsp;<i>not</i>&nbsp;ignored their peace offerings, and we had other tactics we could have used! The long-term effects on Japan just weren&rsquo;t worth it. We could have easily used other strategies! But instead, we killed hundreds of thousands of people, put unneeded radiation into our atmosphere, and opened the gate to the Cold War. Dropping the atomic bomb surely wasn&rsquo;t our brightest move, but the past is the past and we can&rsquo;t change it now. But we could have avoided the hurt and the hate towards America and also avoided the danger of nuclear weapons. These are only some of the reasons why I believe that the atomic bomb shouldn&rsquo;t have been used, and should never be used again. Bombing for peace is like having sex for virginity, it just doesn&rsquo;t make any sense.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Race complicates everything.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many of you have heard about George Zimmerman shooting Trayvon Martin. At first this would seem like a regular shooting, but the real problem started when people started calling the police and Zimmerman racists. This has lead to many riots and anger thoughout the nation. However, many people are blinded by racist rage, and as such cannot think logically about the sictuation. Just because a black boy is killed by a white man everybody thinks the white man is to blame. They all take the side of the black boy because of &#8220;equality&#8221;. But what does that word even mean if we don&#8217;t treat everybody here equally. This case seems to &nbsp;show that the liberties of whites have been all but forgotten, and now being white is more a liability than anything else. Zimmerman states that Martin attacked him and he had no choice but to shoot. This lead many to call bull because apparently the dead boy can&#8217;t be wrong. However, released police reports and videos seem to be supporting Zimmerman, which means that he could be telling the truth all along, and the rumors that the media has been spreading has been false.</p>
<p>So my question to you is, how can America truly be the land of opportunity and equality if people are still discriminating on the basis of color. The only difference between this case and prior ones is that the white man is being attacked instead of the other way around.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[There's much we're yet to understand about love, issues, and being together...]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>QUESTION:</strong></p>
<p>FOOD FOR THOUGHT: This is to all the single Men and Women out there. Whatever you fail to address during dating and courtship will definitely keep you depressed and disoriented the rest of your life. Has he ever slapped you? Beaten you blue black? Turned you into a punching bag? It is not just a mistake as he said, that is precisely who he is&#8230; Has she held you by the scruff of your&#8230; shirt or by your tie and stopped you from going to work? Or called you all sorts of name? She will do worse things when you get married? How does she talk to you now? He will go deeper when you get married. What are the things you don&#8217;t like about that person you are in love with? I want you to address those issues now and tell yourself the truth should you move on into marriage with him or her despite your shortcomings? What are your reasons for holding onto that which is killing you and taking away your joy? Are you going on because you don&#8217;t want friends and relations to laugh at your broken courtship? Are you there because of what religion will say? Are you there because you don&#8217;t want to hurt him or her? Are you in that relationship where you are constantly sad just because you are too desperate for marriage? Are you there because people must not hear that this very one didn&#8217;t work out? It&#8217;s your Life. You can either make yourself happy by ignoring people&#8217;s opinion or make people happy at the expense of your future happiness. It&#8217;s your call!!</p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &#8211; Victor Samson</p>
<p><strong>ANSWER 1:</strong></p>
<p>Good talk. Walk the talk and know for sure it&#8217;s ur hide and heart, also ur life and joy at stake. Take a deep breath before you launch into it. All the oceans of this world cannot wash away the stain. It&#8217;s for life. The joy is also permanent. Wish you the best of luck.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49460206@N03/5449258834" target="_blank"><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2012/04/01/5449258834500983c22b_1.jpg" alt="" width="336" height="500" border="0" /></a></p>
<p><strong>ANSWER 2:</strong></p>
<p>Many questions asked, many issues raised&#8230; but few answers. The thing is, you are never going to be able to work all the issues out &#8211; no be curse! what you want to realize before you get too deep into it &#8211; before you get into it at all &#8211; is that you guys ar going to hurt each other because neither of you are perfect. What gives is this: LOVE.<br />Listen good and understand this: Love trusts all things, hopes all things, BELIEVES all things, and FORGIVES all things. Love ain&#8217;t because of whom the person is or what they have done, or can do, for you; love is IN SPITE of however bad they may hurt you.<br />So, here&#8217;s how it goes &#8211; work everything out that you can before the relationship goes on for too long, then the other things you can&#8217;t work out (and there will be several of them), pray god for grace to be able to handle them because now they have become your cross, and you will carry them to your dying day (for richer or poorer, sickness or health, better or worse, &#8217;till death do you part!)</p>
<p><strong>ANSWER 3:</strong></p>
<p>What do <strong><i><u>YOU</u></i></strong> think is the real solution to the situation? Why don&#8217;t <i><u><strong>YOU</strong></u></i> provide your answer in the comments section below?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In many places, bashing media persons seems to have  become the order of the day. The chairman of the Press Council of India,  Justice Markandey Katju, a retired judge of the Supreme Court, has been  constrained to write letters to the chief ministers of a good few  states warning them of the consequences of failure to protect  journalists from physical attacks.</p>
<p>He wrote to the chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir Omar Abdullah  referring to allegations of assault on four reporters by the police but  drew a rude reply. He received a positive response from the chief  minister of Maharashtra Prithviraj Chavan. Protests were sent also to  the chief ministers of Uttar Pradesh and Chhattisgarh.</p>
<p>The nadir was reached on March 2 in Bengaluru. At least 20 media  persons and police personnel were injured when they were attacked by, of  all persons, lawyers, and that too on the premises of the city&rsquo;s civil  court. They singled out the crew of the electronic media for particular  attention. They were assaulted and their expensive cameras and other  equipment smashed.</p>
<p>The media&rsquo;s coverage of the protest staged by lawyers, last January,  highlighted the huge traffic gridlock in the nerve centre of the city  and the anger voiced by ordinary citizens. The protesters&rsquo; lack of any  sense of responsibility stood exposed.</p>
<p>This time, on March 2, media personnel, especially from TV, had come  in strength to cover the appearance in court of a mining baron G.  Janardhan Reddy who faces charges of illegal mining.</p>
<p>Media coverage had contributed a lot to his ouster as minister in the  state government. Advocates objected to TV crew and photographers from  the print media trying to film Reddy getting out of a car to proceed to  court, when all hell broke loose.</p>
<p>The media is not only entitled as of right to cover such events but  is bound to do so as a matter of public duty. Photographers, like TV  crew, face greater danger. They have to protect expensive cameras as  well as their own lives and limbs because a single photograph or TV  frame can be more damning than words in cold print.</p>
<p>In the wake of this rash of media attacks, controversy erupted on  whether special protective legislation is called for. It is argued by  some that an assault on a journalist is no different from an assault on  any other citizen. Ergo, no special legislation is called for. The  objection is groundless for three good reasons.</p>
<p>First, such a law will itself send out a message to all that the  attacks cannot be allowed to persist and will serve as a deterrent to  lawbreakers.</p>
<p>Secondly, the Penal Code is studded with provisions which impose  greater punishment for offences committed in special circumstances. For  example, joining an unlawful assembly while armed with a deadly weapon  carries greater punishment than mere membership of an unlawful assembly.  There are half a dozen provisions on various kinds of &ldquo;negligent  conduct&rdquo; affecting public health, each in its own distinctive way.  Forgery of court record is treated more seriously than forgery of any  other kind.</p>
<p>Which brings us to the last reason which is of a fundamental  character. A journalist is attacked because he is discharging a public  duty, not for personal reasons. He represents an institution &mdash; the  Fourth Estate. Constitutions draw a distinction between freedom of  speech guaranteed to every citizen and freedom of the press. It is an  institutional right available to members of an institution.</p>
<p>There was a time during the Raj, when the Privy Council ruled that  the rights of the journalist are no greater than those of any other  citizen. So did the US Supreme Court at one time. But it shifted its  position gradually. In 1978 it ruled that &ldquo;the concept of equal access  must be accorded more flexibility in order to accommodate the practical  distinctions between the press and the general public. When on  assignment, a journalist does not tour a jail simply for his own  edification. He is there to gather information to be passed on to  others, and his mission is protected by the Constitution for very  specific reasons&rdquo;.</p>
<p>In 1980, the principle was extended in yet more explicit terms to  reporting of court proceedings. In olden times the public learnt of the  proceedings by personal attendance or word of mouth from those who were  present in court.</p>
<p>&ldquo;People now acquire it chiefly through the print and electronic  media. In a sense, this validates the media claim of functioning as  surrogates for the public. While media representatives enjoy the same  right of access as the public, they often are provided special seating  and priority of entry so that they may report what people in attendance  have seen and heard.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Once the fundamental principle of the media as surrogates for the  public is accepted, objections to special legislation, to protect  members of the Fourth Estate and deter attacks on them, fall to the  ground.</p>
<p>One such law was moved in the Karnataka Assembly in 1988 but the  government fell before it could be enacted as Clause 4 of the bill. It  read thus: &ldquo;Whoever is a member of an unlawful assembly or voluntarily  causes hurt, or wrongfully restrains or confines or commits criminal  intimidation or threatens to commit any of the said offences with the  intention of preventing any journalist or worker in a newspaper or  journal from performing his duties or discharging his functions as such  or preventing the publication, circulation or distribution of the said  newspaper or journal shall be punished with rigorous imprisonment for a  term which may extend to six years or with fine which may extend to Rs  20,000 or with both.&rdquo; The media must take the lead and promote suitable  legislation.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[A synopsis of President Barrack Obama's final State of the Union address.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:2010_State_of_the_Union.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2012/03/05/2010stateoftheunion_1.jpg" alt="" width="540" height="360" border="0" /></a></p>

<p>On January 24, 2012, President Barrack Obama delivered his final State of the Union address of his first term in office. Throughout his speech he focused on decreasing spending, creating jobs and lowering taxes. He began his speech by focusing on the previous year and the achievements he brought forth. He discussed the death of Osama Bin Laden along with the ending of the Iraq war. President Obama then discussed looking ahead into the future to ending the war in Afghanistan. He used the platform of ending the wars to step into his first theme of discussing how to end excessive government spending.<br /><a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Obama_and_Biden_await_updates_on_bin_Laden.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2012/03/05/obamaandbidenawaitupdatesonbinladen_1.jpg" alt="" width="540" height="360" border="0" /></a></p>

<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; President Obama, last night throughout his speech discussed various ways to decrease spending to help get rid of the budget deficit. He initially discussed that spending on foreign wars needs to decrease in order to cut the excessive defense budget that our nation now has. However, In order to be more bipartisan he touched on the fact that programs like Social security, Medicare, and Medicade need to be reformed. President Obama admitted that these programs need to be reformed the most not only to cut spending of tax dollars but also to guarantee that the disabled and elderly will have a secure future where these programs are guaranteed. After discussing cuts to spending, President Obama went on to talk about the creation of jobs and taxes.</p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; President Obama, on addressing his second issue, began with a story about how the company seimans. After shutting down a factory of theirs, the company offered for the laid off workers to go to school. The company paid for the education of their previous employees, and thus created more skilled workers to work in the new laboratories the company build after shutting down their factory. President Obama used this as an example for how other companies should run and what kind of companies the U.S. government should support. He talked about how the U.S. needs to have more skilled workers and that in order for the U.S. to create more jobs we need to use incentives to have multinational corporations return to the states. He used that subject as a vault into discussing the issue of immigration. He talked about how we must not just deport illegal immigrants that get a higher education for two reasons: First, it benefits our society by having more highly educated individuals, Secondly he discussed how much of the scientific community in the United States is made up of immigrants. The president discussed the issue of immigration and also combined it with the discussion of education reform in the United States. President Obama suggested that taxes should be cut in both loans for education along with corporate taxes for multinationals that return factories and jobs to the states. President Obama then touched on the point that the pricing of higher education and the system of student loans needs to be reformed and fixed, and the only way that can happen is through the participation of congress.</p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; President Obamas last main point of what needs to be done this coming year referred to the fact that a greater amount of bipartisanship needs to happen. He openly talked about the fact that he knows the government is very inefficient at this point in time. As for how to fix it, President Obama talked about how he plans on congregating six separate departments, though he did not specify which ones, in order to many the government run much more quickly and effectively. &nbsp;The President finished his speech by discussing about the future of our nation and the investments our nation must take. Obama used the example of the $2 million dollar investment the United States made in the 1960&rsquo;s that became what in now the internet. The president then discussed that we must invest in our future even though some of our investments may not pay off as much as we would like.<br /><a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Barack_Obama_signs_American_Recovery_and_Reinvestment_Act_of_2009_on_February_17.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2012/03/05/barackobamasignsamericanrecoveryandreinvestmentactof2009onfebruary17_1.jpg" alt="" width="540" height="304" border="0" /></a></p>

<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I though the President&rsquo;s speech was very good. I think that he did very well in to passing over any large issues. I think that he honed in his goals and the goals of the entire nation for this year and into the future. By talking about votes that were going on in congress in the next few months the effect of his speech and the effectiveness of it will be able to be clearly seen in the near future. I think that overall the republican reaction to his speech was mostly positive. President Obama made it very clear that he is willing to work for both the democrats and the republicans into the next year and beyond to best represent the people of the country and once again make the United States the strongest country in the world.</p>
