The State of the union:Whats in stored for this year

The State of the Union
Whats in stored for this year

.
           State of the union addresses are extremely public and very controversial. The purpose of this publicized event is for the president to publicize the issues he is going to pertain or focus on for the year drawing forth. The year's first president Barack Obama verbally listed his issues he would be focusing on for the year of 2011. Barack Obama's main focus was on creating jobs for the year of 2011. Among other things, Mr. Obama called for cutting corporate taxes, spreading high-speed Internet to all corners of the nation, and boosting spending on research, technology, and education in an effort to keep the US ahead of China, Europe, and other economic competitors. Opponents like the republicans supported some of the issues like the ear mark ban but they do despise the freeze on domestic spendings. Republicans want a complete cut on domestic spending.
