With little chance of passing Congress, Mr Obama's budget proposal is a political document that sets forth the fiscal platform he will campaign on ahead of the November election.

虽然奥巴马的预算预案在国会获得通过的几率很小，但它却是一份政治宣言，表明在11月份的美国大选前，奥巴马将在竞选过程中施行怎样的财政纲领。

The budget also includes extra spending on education and infrastructure, which the president plans to pay for with additional higher taxes on the energy industry, mutual funds and also estates. It contains no new plans to tackle long-term drivers of the US deficit, most notably Medicare, which covers medical treatment for the elderly, and Medicaid for the poor.

上述预算还包括将加大对教育和基础设施的投入，奥巴马计划通过对能源行业、共同基金以及房地产行业增税，来支付这部分开支。针对引发美国赤字的长期性因素（最为显而易见的是老年医保(Medicare)和医疗补助(Medicaid)项目，二者分别为老年人口和贫困人群提供医疗服务），预算没有提出新的计划。

The budget reiterates the White House's underlying principle for personal tax reform, the so-called "Buffett rule", after investor Warren Buffett, that anyone with annual income of $1m or more should pay a minimum 30 per cent in tax.

该预算重申了白宫在个人纳税改革（即所谓的“巴菲特规则”，以投资家沃伦•巴菲特(Warren Buffett)命名）问题上的根本原则：年收入达到或超过100万美元的个人，应至少缴纳30%的税率。
