Is America on the Cusp of a Healthcare Revolution?
February 27th (Atlanta, GA) – Last night (February 26th), the President of the United States stood before a joint-session of Congress to deliver a rare first-year State of the Union Address. While those in attendance and the millions watching at home never learned if the condition of the country was “strong” or some other similar terminology, the President took the opportunity to lambast the Legislative and Judicial Branches for past perceived grievances. Yet after spending a good portion of the opening statement attacking these coequal parts of government, the President did take a significant amount of time to explain that there is usually more agreement than not, despite the rhetoric and the “media hype” of partisanship.

February 26th (Washington, D.C.) – A few short weeks after making a request to do so, the President was able to appear before a joint-session of Congress to give a State of the Union address. However, this was a speech unlike any given since becoming formally known by that name in 1947—which coincidently was the first time the speech was broadcast on television. The last President to have a State of the Union during their first year in office was John F. Kennedy—although his successor Lyndon B. Johnson had one after Kennedy was assassinated and Gerald Ford also had one when Richard Nixon resigned. However, according to a Congressional Research Service report (https://fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/R44770.pdf) on the history of the State of the Union:

drip like dragonfly water
Rain, drip like dragonfly water in general in beating the ground, like complaining, but also like in mumbling. Carefully, gently, more like a cry in the heart, let me have a trace of melancholy. The rain continued to fall, and the military training was still going on. Because of the rain, the instructor taught us military songs in the classroom today. At first, I was not interested, but the majestic lyrics and inspiring songs made me feel that the life of a soldier was actually very fulfilling and happy. "Soldiers die for the country, the soul of the territory" is the purpose of the army and the people to make selfless contributions to the people, "unity is strength" let me cherish the time together with this class. One military song after another let me feel that the soldiers are sacred, let me admire them from the heart. At noon, in order to let us relax, the teacher gave us a movie to watch. Although not finished, but let us harvest a lot, feel a lot. In order to participate in the mission, a military couple postponed their marriage. While on a mission, a woman died. There are many, many more stories like this, soldiers sacrifice too much to defend the country and serve the people. When standing military posture, the teacher asked us to stand still, very hard. But the instructor said to us: "The more you want to be in the most tired time, the more you want to persist." As night falls, the second day of military training is also coming to an end. The good and bad results of military training are directly included in our comprehensive archives, so I strive to do better. Military training is very hard, but persistence is victory, some people say: "only enjoy the blessing, there is no hardship." If you do it, do it well. Stars twinkle, dotted the sky, changing into a beautiful starry sky. The brook murmuring and tinkling. Life is so beautiful, the same thing can not be repeated, so cherish every person, every thing, every minute and every second!"Army" is a glorious symbol of the motherland, but also a glorious task; "Training" is a kind of full of vigor and vitality, such as the spirit of flattery. Combined, these two words make for a long, choppy exercise that inspires the heart. The teacher asked us to write a military training diary, I think it should be a composition, because the important thing is not the record of a day, but our experience and inner thoughts. I come from Zhejiang, more than 2,500 kilometers of long-distance travel, for the childhood when I was a boy rooted in the deep heart of the aviation dream, came here is to fight for the dream of childhood. Now that I am half a man, military training has taught me a kind of persistence, unity and responsibility. Near is the responsibility for oneself now, far is the future responsibility for work and family; Teach us no longer wayward, no longer parents pain in the back of the palm of the child, no longer the flowers in the greenhouse, remind us that we have grown up, is a college student. Today is the first day of formal military training, including the military posture, stop the transfer of law, military appearance and collation... There are not many things to learn after a day, but against the overhead sun, I still feel particularly depressed and irritable, and the motionless posture of the army is the torture of a restless big boy! For this, I would like to thank the serious and careful instructors, for wiping the sweat into our eyes is every kind of care, thank you instructors, and we also sweat your hard work! In short, the first day of military training taught us is perseverance, with our unremitting persistence to calm the body's restlessness, let us in the hot sun calm natural cool! Everyone to do their own actions and responsibilities is a collective, in order to achieve the effect of high firewood flame. Flat language can not vividly depict a vivid picture of military training, but it is the true portrayal of my heart.
