Summary: President Obama's State of the Union address presented his vision of smart government to create jobs and revive the economy. However, he lowered the value of infrastructure spending. He just spent $50 billion dollars for repairing the bridges that were fallen down nationwide, despite American Society of Civil Engineers concluded that $2.2 trillion should be spent over five years to bring the infrastructure systems up to grade.
Opinion: President Obama's spending on infrastructure is classified as the macroeconomics. He carefully decided how to spend, but it is just a band-aid on American's growing cancer of failing infrastructure. There are too many public establishments that should be spent to be repaired. However, i think President Obama is putting less budgets on it. Since infrastructure are used by every citizens in the nation and it is necessary for all of them, it is the first problems to be solved. I hope President Obama would distribute money fairly to infrastructure so that the people living in the United States would not have any difficulties of using the infrastructures.
I agree that budgets should be balanced so that there would be no difficulties of using the infrastructures.

답글삭제Infrastructure of the United States is sufficient enough to meet the need of people, I believe. Instead of pouring money on infrastructure, Obama's administration should put more revenues on industrial development and improving terrible social service.
