○  英语演讲稿：Putting American Back to Work范文  ○

well, this administration’s objective will be a healthy, vigorous, growing economy that provides equal opportunities for all americans with no barriers born of bigotry or discrimination. putting america back to work means putting all americans back to work. ending inflation means freeing all americans from the terror of runaway living costs.

all must share in the productive work of this “new beginning,” and all must share in the bounty of a revived economy.

with the idealism and fair play which are the core of our system and our strength, we can have a strong and prosperous america at peace with itself and the world. so as we begin, let us take inventory.

we are a nation that has a government -- not the other way around. and this makes us special among the nations of the earth. our government has no power except that granted it by the people. it is time to check and reverse the growth of government which shows signs of having grown beyond the consent of the governed.

it is my intention to curb the size and influence of the federal establishment and to demand recognition of the distinction between the powers granted to the federal government and those reserved to the states or to the people.

all of us -- all of us need to be reminded that the federal government did not create the states; the states created the federal government.

now, so there will be no misunderstanding, it’s not my intention to do away with government. it is rather to make it work -- work with us, not over us; to stand by our side, not ride on our back. government can and must provide opportunity, not smother it; foster productivity, not stifle it. if we look to the answer as to why for so many years we achieved so much, prospered as no other people on earth, it was because here in this land we unleashed the energy and individual genius of man to a greater extent than has ever been done before.
