State of Union Speech

Watching and reading the State of Union speech, was really interesting and well said about what he talk about. Obama talk about job, economy, unemployment, immigration, and etc. something that was really big that Obama talk about was when he first talk about for the first time in nearly 20 years  that our oil is coming from the U.S. instead of it coming from other countries, which is kind of good just because we don’t have that much oil left in the world, and we don’t  have to fight over oil, which I think is stupid, if it not coming from us then why should we take other countries oil. I thought President Obama said was well. Also another thing that tide to this is when he said for the first time in a decade that the U.S. is now the number one invested place in the world. President Obama talk’s immigration reform, he says “Independent economists say immigration reform will grow our economy and shrink our deficits by almost $1 trillion in the next two decades.  And for good reason: when people come here to fulfill their dreams – to study, invent, and contribute to our culture – they make our country a more attractive place for businesses to locate and create jobs for everyone.  So let’s get immigration reform done this year”. That would be a good thing because these people will help strengthen the economy and give immigrate a better life to live, as long as they are doing good in the U.S. I don’t care what they do. But what really hit me on what he said during the speech was women take half of the workforce making 77 cents for every dollar a man earns, and that she should deserves a day to take care of kid or kids without sacrificing her job also with men too, but every women should have an opportunity that she deserves. Also what he attracted was no one who work full time should take of take care of their family in poverty, in which my mom is doing right now, she take care of me and my two little sisters and it still hard to get food and buy laundry for our clothes. So it hard for a single mom or dad or both parent to take care of a family and still be on that poverty line. So Obama had raised minimum wage for a lot of people for they do not have to struggle in these rough time. That fact that Obama is trying to help America is looking real good for future America if it go to plan.
