“What We Should Have Learned”

What did we learn from President Obama’s address to the nation? What we should have learned is that a “quick fix” for a “quick profit” will lead to decades of catastrophic decay to America’s economy, its infrastructure, health care, the environment, and education.

What we should have learned is that we must break away from the “dogmas” of the past where it is still believed that tax cuts would stimulate the economy, senior citizens didn’t need social security, health care didn’t need to be reformed, and America’s schools were adequate and our children prepared to compete in 21st century’s global economy.

What we should have learned from President Obama’s address is that tax cuts will not stimulate America’s economy, senior citizens do need social security, Medicaid and Medicare, health care must be reformed so that all Americans are insured, America’s schools infrastructure is inadequate, and children are ill-prepared to compete in 21st century’s global economy.

What we should have learned from President Obama’s address is that Americans of every ethnicity, religious, and political ideology will undoubtedly play a significant role in defining America’s future.
