State of the Union: Highlights, reactions, analyse

The Daily Grind Video

PT1.OK, here are my thoughts on last nights state of the union address…..President Obama started off with the same ol’ rile you up talk within the first ten minutes of his speech and that’s when I yawed an started nodding off. But then he began to speak of bank loans for small businesses and allocating thirty billion dollars to small business loans. That’s something that I would like to see happen because no matter how talented you are, you cannot start a business with out capital. Your nine to five job is not going to allow you to ever prosper, then you start thinking of doing unlawful things just to get ahead. So yes, I would like to see thirty billion dollars being allocated so that small businesses can be born and grow. I too believe that our infrastructures are outdated and we need high speed rail roads and clean energy. Just imagine if we not only had high speed railroads, but high speed highways as well? When was the last time the speed limit was adjusted to match the 21st century? Come on now sixty-five miles an hour on a major route should be illegal, its not 1945 anymore, speedometers don’t stop at 55 miles like they use to. So yes, lets put the American citizens to work, young men can pick up new trades, build up your community and make some money all at the same time. As the President went on to speak of the 1st order of business, he made the usual empathy statements: “people are hurting”, “they need our help”, “they need jobs”…etc etc.  And then he lost me when he said “And The Truth Is!” errrrrrrrr Hold up, isn’t it all the truth Mr.President?  You just lost me on that one buddy, lol. He did have a strong comeback when he began to talk about how other nations are more advanced than we are and how we need to catch up, how long should we have to wait? Good question, how long do we have to wait?PT 2.Some of the highlights of the speech where definitely when the president talked about a world class education and wiping away student loan dept after 20 years or 10 years if you get a city/state job. That sounds great, but free school sounds way better to me. If you can spend billions of tax payers’ dollars funding a war, why can’t you invest that same type of money in e
