可以看出,问题并不在于事情是否会好转——情况总是会变好的。问题也不在于我们是否已经有了应对我们面临的挑战的解决办法——我们一直掌握着这些解决办法,已有相当一段时间了。比如说,我们知道,如果有更多的美国人能得到你们在巴纳德得到的这样的教育(掌声)——如果有更多的人能够获得今天的雇主所需要的那些特定的技能和训练,美国的情况会更好。
We know that we’d all be better off if we invest in science and technology that sparks new businesses and medical breakthroughs; if we developed more clean energy so we could use less foreign oil and reduce the carbon pollution that’s threatening our planet. (Applause.)
我们知道,如果我们投资于能够造就新的企业并带动医学突破的科学与技术,如果我们开发出更多的清洁能源以减少使用外国石油并减少对我们的地球构成威胁的碳污染,我们大家的日子会过得更好。(掌声)
We know that we’re better off when there are rules that stop big banks from making bad bets with other people’s money and -- (applause) -- when insurance companies aren’t allowed to drop your coverage when you need it most or charge women differently from men. (Applause.) Indeed, we know we are better off when women are treated fairly and equally in every aspect of American life -- whether it’s the salary you earn or the health decisions you make. (Applause.)
