The Reporters and Camera Crews at the Clinton Conference

Camera crews and reporters were there en masse for Bill Clinton's speech at the UEM on May 22nd.

Head sets were available for simultaneous translation, but I don't see anyone wearing wearing them. Do you? Some people preferred to hear the talk in Spanish, but the great majority were listening to Clinton as he spoke in English. I assume this means that most of the press and the UEM community who were in attendance understand English and had no problem following what was being said. If you were there and didn't catch it all, or if you didn't have an invitation to the event but would like to know what Mr. Clinton had to say, check out the transcription of the speech on the UEM on-line newspaper.

Economics, Politics, and the Work Ethic

Distant past, present, and future....

"The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance."
-Marcus Tullius CICERO, 55 BC
Roman author, orator, & politician (106 BC - 43 BC)

Do you agree?
