    Relevance and Worth of Ideas


    A. WHAT’S NEW?
    It is an exciting world out there. A lot of new things are emerging in our ever
    changing world. It is our responsibility to discern what to follow and what to believe
    in. While we enjoy the changes the world has to offer, we should still be grounded on
    the values that shape our being. They will guide us in our journey through life and
    our quest for a better future for ourselves and for others.

    Obama: ‘There Were No Winners In This’ Government Shutdown


    (President Barack Obama’s Address to the Americans )

    Hi everybody. This week, because Democrats and responsible Republicans


    came together, the government was reopened, and the threat of default was removed
    from our economy.
    There’s been a lot of discussion lately of the politics of this shutdown. But the
    truth is, there were no winners in this. At a time when our economy needs more growth
    and more jobs, the manufactured crises of these last few weeks actually harmed jobs
    and growth. And it’s understandable that your frustration with what goes on in
    Washington has never been higher.
    The way business is done in Washington has to change. Now that this clouds
    of crisis and uncertainty have lifted, we need to focus on what the majority of Americans
    sent us here to do-grow the economy, create good jobs, strengthen the middle class, lay
    the foundation for broad-based prosperity, and get our fiscal house in order for the long
    haul.
    It won’t be easy. But we can make progress. Specifically, there are three
    places where I believe that Democrats and Republicans can work together right away.
    First, we should sit down and pursue a balanced approach to a responsible
    budget, one that grows our economy faster and shrinks our long-term deficits further.
    There is no choice between growth and fiscal responsibility-we need both. So we’re
    making a serious mistake if a budget doesn’t focus on what you’re focused on: creating
    more good jobs that pay better wages. If we’re going to free up resources for the things
    that help us grow - education, infrastructure, research – we should cut what we don’t
    need, close corporate tax loopholes that don’t help create jobs. This shouldn’t be as
    difficult as it has been in past years. Remember, our deficits are shrinking – not
    growing.
    Second, we should finish the job of fixing our broken immigration system.
    There’s already a broad coalition across America that’s behind this effort, from business
    leaders to faith leaders to law enforcement. It would grow our economy. It would secure
    our borders. The Senate has already passed a bill with strong bipartisan support. Now
    the House should, too. The majority of Americans thinks this is the right thing to do. It
    can and should get done by the end of this year.
    Third, we should pass a farm bill – one that America’s farmers and ranchers
    can depend on, one that protects vulnerable children and adults in times of need, and
    one that gives rural communities opportunities to grow and the longer-term certainty
    they deserve.
    We won’t suddenly agree on everything now that the cloud of crisis has
    passed. But we shouldn’t hold back on places where we do agree, just because we don’t
    think it’s good politics, or just because the extremes in our parties don’t like
    compromise. I’ll look for willing partners from either party to get important work done.
    There’s no good reason why we can’t govern responsibly, without lurching from
    manufactured crisis. Because that isn’t governing – it’s hurting the people we were sent
    here to serve.
    Those of us who have the privilege to serve this country have an obligation to
    do our job the best we can. We come from different parties, but we’re Americans first.
    And our obligations to you must compel all of us, Democrats and Republicans, to
    cooperate, and compromise, and act in the best interests of this country we love.
    Thanks everybody and have a great weekend.
