What impact does Obama's election have on American society?

For the world, whether a new American president can change the reckless behavior of the United States is a problem worthy of attention. Although the slogan of American presidential candidates will certainly not be fully observed or realized when they are in power, from Obama's consistent campaign philosophy, we may see which direction the United States will go in the Obama era.

international relation

Compared with the Bush administration and McCain, Obama's diplomatic proposition may be a more moderate gesture. However, under the influence of domestic hardliners, it is difficult to expect the United States to become a true defender of world peace.

Regarding Iraq, which is the most concerned issue at home and abroad, Obama insists on a clear timetable for withdrawing troops, leaving only the protection of diplomats and the task force engaged in special operations. In order to maintain long-term stability in Iraq, he supports joint efforts with relevant countries, including Iran. This is his promise to voters to make Americans regain their dignity on the world stage.

It is worth noting that Obama's coming to power may have a negative impact on China's manufacturing industry and foreign investment. He urged that the manufacturing industry should stay in the United States and prevent the employment opportunities from flowing to China, Indian and other developing countries.

household management

Obama's economic leadership has been affirmed by American voters. On the question of who can better control the economic crisis, more people tend to Obama.

Speaking of the economic crisis, Obama accused the Bush administration of neglecting the supervision of financial enterprises for a long time. He expressed strong opposition to executives in the financial sector leaving easily with a large amount of "severance pay" after damaging the company. He supported the US government's $700 billion rescue plan and asked the Ministry of Finance to boldly put it into practice as soon as possible. He advocated establishing a stable national fiscal and taxation system and reducing borrowing from China and other countries to maintain the government's extravagant financial expenditure.

With regard to the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States, he suggested that banks receiving subsidies from the $700 billion rescue plan should give three-month grace periods to buyers who are unable to pay their mortgages and face the confiscation of their houses, even if these buyers can only pay part of the loans they should pay.

Obama was described by McCain as "tax increase". However, according to Obama's proposition, after he takes office, he will increase taxes on people earning more than $250,000 a year, but implement tax cuts for low-income people, including an immediate tax cut of $500 for individuals and a tax cut of 1 000 for families.

immigration policy

Obama is more moderate on illegal immigration policy. He pointed out that there are 654.38+02 million illegal workers in the United States. Some of them have married American citizens, and some have given birth to American citizens. It is obviously unrealistic to drive them all away. He supports legalizing some illegal immigrants through appropriate means, including paying fines and learning English, but people with criminal records will not be considered. He also supports the introduction of guest workers, but can only do jobs that American citizens can't do. At the same time, he stressed the need to effectively strengthen border control in the United States.

Medical insurance and employment

Medical insurance is one of the key topics in the US presidential election. Unlike Hillary's "universal health insurance plan" and McCain's "marketization", Obama advocates that the state should cooperate with pharmaceutical companies and employers to provide people with "affordable" medical insurance. Insurance companies shall not refuse to insure patients and the elderly, and the employing company shall provide insurance money or pay extra fees to the government to support the government's insurance plan. In addition, the high medical expenses will be adjusted so that people can generally bear it.

For the Democratic candidates who have traditionally fought for the working class, increasing employment is an idea that they must repeatedly emphasize. Obama's ideas include using loans to support the American automobile manufacturing industry, vigorously developing clean energy and increasing employment opportunities.

Energy climate

Both Obama and McCain advocate that the United States should get rid of its dependence on foreign energy of $700 billion a year. In this regard, Obama advocates vigorously developing new alternative energy sources, including wind energy, bioenergy and solar energy. He suggested increasing the windfall tax of oil companies to subsidize the development of clean energy. However, his "clean coal" technology has been criticized by environmentalists. Unlike McCain, Obama does not support the development of nuclear energy.

On the issue of global warming, Obama has a more positive attitude. He supports the United States, as the largest greenhouse gas country, to take the lead in reducing emissions and implement the greenhouse gas restriction measures of "paying for quotas". But at the same time, he advocated that Indian, China, Russian and other emerging economies * * * should participate in global emission reduction actions.
