你们这儿要人么哥们儿给个工作吧

I walked for hours and hours in search of a job, giving me a lot of time to think. Five days into my search, hungry, tired and hot, I asked myself: What would solve my problems? Food stamps? Welfare? An increased minimum wage?

我步行好几个小时去找工作，这使我有大量的时间思考。在找工作的第五天，我感到饿、疲倦和炎热，我问自己：什么能解决我的问题？食品救济券？福利？提高最低工资？

No. I needed a job. Period. Like others, I have often said the best social program in the world is a good job. Even though my homeless trek was only for a week, with a defined endpoint, that statement became much more real for me. A job was the one thing that could have solved my food, housing and transportation problems.

都不是，我需要一份工作。就是这样。像其他人一样，我经常会说世界上最好的社会项目就是一份好工作。我的无家可归经历只有一周，有明确的终止时间，但我对这句话的体会已经深切得多。一份工作就可以解决我的食物、住房和交通问题。

California's record poverty is man-made: over-regulation and over-taxation that drive jobs out of state, failing schools that don't prepare students for the skilled work force and misguided water policies that prevent us from saving surplus water in wet years to prepare for our inevitable droughts. We have the power to tackle poverty if we implement smart, pro-growth economic policies, as many other states have done.
