	标题：奥巴马每周电视讲话：总统呼吁国会尽快通过预算方案 
[00:00.61]Hi,everybody. 	大家好！ 
[00:02.30]Yesterday,we learned that our businesses created another 118,000 new jobs in September. 	昨天,有消息显示9月份我们的企业共创造11。8万个就业岗位。 
[00:07.80]That makes 67 straight months of job creation,and 13.2 million new jobs in all. 	这是第67个月就业连续增长,新增的就业岗位总数达到1320万个。 
[00:13.95]But we would be doing even better if we didn't have to keep dealing with crises in Congress every few months. 	但如果我们不用每隔几个月就要处理国会制造的危机和问题的话,我们取得的成就要比这些大得多。 
[00:20.49]And especially at a time when the global economy is softening,our own growth could slow if Congress doesn't do away with harmful austerity measures. 	尤其是在全球经济发展疲软的当下,如果国会不能摒弃有害的支出缩减措施,我们的经济增长就会放缓。 
[00:30.12]Now,on Wednesday,more than half of Republicans in Congress voted to shut down the government for the second time in two years. 	上周三,一多半的共和党议员投票同意让政府在两年内第二次关门。 
[00:37.41]Fortunately,there were enough votes in both parties to pass a last-minute bill to keep the government open for another ten weeks. 	幸运的是,国会两党还是有足够的票数在最后时刻通过一份法案,让政府继续维持运转10个星期。 
[00:43.72]Unfortunately,that gimmick only sets up another shutdown threat two weeks before Christmas. 	不幸的是,这种伎俩还是会让政府在圣诞节前两周面临又一次的关门威胁。 
[00:49.82]Look,that's not the way America should operate. 	这可不是美国应该有的处事方式。 
[00:54.70]It just kicks the can down the road without solving any problems or doing any long-term planning for the future. 	这是破罐子破摔的行为,根本不解决任何问题,也没有为未来做任何长远的打算。 
[00:59.56]And that's why I will not sign another shortsighted,short-term spending bill like the one Congress sent me this week. 	因此,未来我绝对不会签署像国会本周送来的这种短视的、只着眼短期支出的预算方案。 
[01:06.19]Here's why. 	为什么会出现这种情况呢。 
[01:07.71]A few years ago,both parties agreed to put in place harmful,automatic cuts that make no distinction between spending we don't need and spending we do. 	几年前,两党同意实施这种伤害性的自动减支计划,完全不区分哪些钱是不必要支出的,哪些是必须要支出的。 
[01:19.16]Those cuts have actually kept our economy from growing faster. 	这种削减政策让我们的经济发展速度受限。 
[01:22.76]Even worse,they're actually undermining the middle class. 	更严重的是,这种政策侵害了中产阶级的地位。 
[01:26.18]Here's one example. 	打个比方来说。 
[01:26.90]If we don't undo these mindless cuts,then next year,we'll be funding our kids' education at the same levels per pupil we did in the year 2000. 	如果我们非得采取这种毫无差别的支出削减计划,那么明年,我们在儿童教育上进行资金投入,对每个学生的投入仅相当于2000年的水平。 
[01:36.74]Compared to my budget,that would be like cutting federal funding for 4,500 schools,17,500 teachers and aides,1.9 million students. 	而与我提出的预算方案相比,这相当于砍掉了4500所学校,1。75万名教职员工以及190万名学生的联邦预算投入。 
[01:49.63]That's not good for our kids or our economy. 	这对孩子们的未来和经济发展都没有好处。 
[01:52.22]It's a prescription for American decline. 	这剂药方将导致美国衰退。 
[01:54.41]And it shouldn't happen. 	这种情况不能出现。 
[01:55.96]We should invest in things like education today,or we'll pay the price tomorrow. 	我们今天应该在教育等领域加大投入,否则明天我们将为此付出代价。 
[02:00.87]Congress should do its job,stop kicking the can down the road,and pass a serious budget rather than flirt with another shutdown. 	国会应该做好自己的工作,停止破罐子破摔的行为,通过一份严谨的预算方案,而不是挑起另一次的政府关门事件。 
[02:08.17]A serious budget is one that keeps America strong through our military,our law enforcement; that keeps America generous through caring for our veterans and our seniors; that keeps America competitive by educating our kids and our workers. 	这份严谨的预算要为我们的军队、执法人员提供资金,让美国保持强大；要为我们的退伍军人和老人提供照料,让美国慷慨如往；为我们的孩子和工人提供教育培训,让美国保持竞争力。 
[02:21.44]That's what I want to work with serious people in both parties to achieve. 	这是我希望与国会两党有责任的议员们一起完成的任务。 
[02:25.92]Because that's how we'll build on the progress of 13 million new jobs,and help the middle class get ahead. 	因为只有这样,我们才能在取得1300万就业岗位的基础上再创佳绩,帮助中产阶级取得成功。 
[02:32.50]Thanks everybody,and have a great weekend. 	谢谢大家！ 祝大家周末愉快！
