Middle-Class Economics
Hi, everybody. This week, in my State of the Union Address, I talked about what we can do to make sure middle-class economics helps more Americans get ahead in the new economy.
See, after some tough years, and thanks to some tough decisions we made, our economy is creating jobs at the fastest pace since 1999. Our deficits are shrinking. Our energy production is booming. Our troops are coming home. Thanks to the hard work and resilience of Americans like you, we’ve risen from recession freer to write our own future than any other nation on Earth.
Now we have to choose what we want that future to look like. Will we accept an economy where only a few of us do spectacularly well? Or will we commit ourselves to an economy that generates rising incomes and rising chances for everyone who makes the effort?
I believe the choice is clear. Today, thanks to a growing economy, the recovery is touching more and more lives. Wages are finally starting to rise again. Let’s keep that going — let’s do more to restore the link between hard work and growing opportunity for every American.
That’s what middle-class economics is — the idea that this country does best when everyone gets their fair shot, everyone does their fair share, and everyone plays by the same set of rules.
Middle-class economics means helping workers feel more secure in a world of constant change — making it easier to afford childcare, college, paid leave, health care, a home, and retirement.
Middle-class economics means doing more to help Americans upgrade their skills through opportunities like apprenticeships and two years of free community college, so we can keep earning higher wages down the road.
Middle-class economics means building the most competitive economy in the world, by building the best infrastructure, opening new markets so we can sell our products around the world, and investing in research — so that businesses keep creating good jobs right here.
And we can afford to do these things by closing loopholes in our tax code that stack the decks for special interests and the superrich, and against responsible companies and the middle class.
This is where we have to go if we’re going to succeed in the new economy. I know that there are Republicans in Congress who disagree with my approach, and I look forward to hearing their ideas for how we can pay for what the middle class needs to grow. But what we can’t do is simply pretend that things like childcare or college aren’t important, or pretend there’s nothing we can do to help middle class families get ahead.
Because we’ve got work to do. As a country, we have made it through some hard times. But we’ve laid a new foundation. We’ve got a new future to write. And I’m eager to get to work.
Thanks, and have a great weekend.

解析
这篇文章讲述的是美国中产阶级的经济。美国经济自1999年以来不断复苏,就业增加,赤字减少,这些都是多亏了中产阶级的辛勤工作和坚韧精神。现在让我们来选择美国的未来,是选择一个贫富悬殊不断扩大的美国,还是一个人人都享有机会共同富裕的经济体?答案不言自明。经济的复苏正在改善越来越多人的生活,中产阶级经济意味着帮助工人在不断变化的世界中获得安稳生活,意味着帮助美国人提高技能,打造一个有竞争力的经济体。可能有些共和党人对此有保留意见,我期待能倾听他们的想法。
