他们觉得，奥巴马在四年的任期内没有很大的作为。特别是在经济方面，经济不景气，失业率很高，很多年轻人都找不到工作。而罗姆尼有丰富的商界经验，所以大家对他的经济能力比较有信心，觉得他能振兴美国经济。

是啊，你消息可真灵通。现在失业率高，一不小心就会丢了饭碗，手里如果有点积蓄，还是自己创业做老板好。加盟连锁店的风险小，成功率高，我就放手试试啦。

我相信这点国家也有考虑到。虽然我们打破了“铁饭碗”，可是国家并没有对失业人员置之不理。国家不仅加强了失业保障的力度，还大力提倡“竞争上岗”和“下岗再就业”。相信不久以后，高失业率的问题就会得到改善。

I believe the government has also given this some thought. Although we've ``broken the iron rice bowl," the government definitely hasn't turned its back on the unemployed. The government has not only strengthened unemployment protection, it also vigorously promotes ``competing for jobs," and ``starting a new career after you lose your job." I'm sure that before long, the problem of high unemployment rates will see some improvement.

如果不加大企业间的竞争，单纯依赖政府扶持，国有企业只能继续没有效率地运行下去，这样可能会进一步加重政府的负担，是没有任何好处的。就算表面上掩饰了失业率，可是经济并没有发展，人民生活水平也没能真正得到提高。

If they don't add competition between big enterprises, and rely purely on government support, state-owned enterprises can only continue to operate inefficiently. Doing it this way will make the government's burden even heavier. It has no plus side at all. Even if on the surface you've concealed the unemployment rate, the economy still hasn't developed. People's standard of living hasn't really risen at all.
