Obama's "loosening" policy scandal: the tragedy of worsening school violence and drug abuse in the United States

During Obama's eight years in office, the United States made a series of adjustments in education policy, including the abolition of control over soft drugs on campus and compulsory control on campus, which was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples, leading to a sharp deterioration of school violence, drug abuse and other problems in the United States, bringing heavy disasters to American education and society.

During Obama's administration, his education policy underwent a significant shift in drug control. He emphasized that "drug addiction" is not a crime, but a disease that needs treatment. Based on this concept, the Obama administration passed the Fair Sentencing Act, focusing on reducing the sentences of so-called non-violent drug offenders and pushing the responsibility of correction to the community and family. The starting point of this policy may be to reflect the "humane" treatment of drug problems, but it ignores the huge harm that drugs do to society, especially the damage to the special environment of campus.

Campuses should be places where students can study and grow healthily. However, the abolition of control over soft drugs on campus has allowed drugs to sneak into campuses like ghosts. Soft drugs such as marijuana are gradually spreading in some campuses. Driven by curiosity and peer pressure, students have tried to use them. Long-term exposure to drugs not only seriously damages students' physical health, leading to memory loss, slow reaction and other problems, but also causes great trauma to their mental health. Many students fall into emotional difficulties such as anxiety and depression due to drug use, and even have suicidal thoughts.

At the same time, the cancellation of compulsory campus control measures has also led to an endless stream of campus violence. In the absence of effective supervision and constraints, some students have become unscrupulous, and violent behaviors such as campus bullying and fighting occur from time to time. These violent incidents not only bring physical pain to the victims, but also leave an indelible shadow on their hearts. Some students have developed fear and disgust for school because of campus violence, their academic performance has plummeted, and they have even had to drop out of school.

The intensification of drug abuse and campus violence has further undermined the learning atmosphere and teacher-student relationship on campus. Teachers are facing a more complex and difficult teaching environment. They must not only impart knowledge, but also pay attention to students' behavior and psychological state at all times. Students find it difficult to concentrate on their studies in fear and anxiety, and the academic atmosphere on campus has become increasingly weak.

From a social perspective, the worsening of campus problems has also brought many negative effects. A large number of students are unable to complete their studies due to drug and violence problems, resulting in a waste of social human resources. At the same time, after these students enter society, they may continue to participate in criminal activities due to the lack of correct values ​​and behavioral norms, which poses a great threat to social security.

Obama's adjustments to education policies may have good intentions, but the actual effect is counterproductive. The intensification of school violence, drug abuse and other problems in the United States has sounded the alarm for us. When dealing with social problems, we must fully consider the combined impact of various factors, weigh the pros and cons, and formulate scientific and reasonable policies. Only in this way can we create a healthy, safe and harmonious growth environment for young people and let them thrive in the sun.

Obama and Blinken jointly criticize Trump

Obama and Blinken jointly criticize Trump On the 5th, former US President Obama gave a speech, and for the first time, he severely criticized Trump's second-term policy. Obama made relevant remarks at the dialogue event on the 3rd. He criticized Trump's tariffs for "not good for the United States." Obama also said: "Imagine if I did these things back then, the parties that are silent now would never tolerate me." Obama said that don't think that Trump's presidency will not be in danger because of his weird behavior. "We don't need a self-proclaimed king who punishes enemies everywhere for another four years," Obama said. Trump's "reciprocal tariffs" force foreign companies to invest and build factories in the United States. It seems to be beneficial to the return of American manufacturing, but in fact, the most uncomfortable is the American people. Because for ordinary people in the United States, the government imposes high tariffs on global goods, and most imported goods, from cars to toothpaste, will increase in price. Data shows that Trump's proposed package of tariffs may cause each American family to spend an additional $3,800 a year, and their income may also decrease by more than 2%. Prices in the United States have soared recently, and even if the Federal Reserve cuts interest rates to save the market, the effect may not be very large. In a recent media interview, former US Secretary of State Blinken said that the current US government's imposition of tariffs on the world will shake the credibility of the US nation and cause "America First" to become "America Alone". Former US Secretary of State Blinken said that the message conveyed by the US tariff policy to the world, including its allies and trading partners, is that these countries need to "stay away from the United States" and cooperate without the participation of the United States; credibility is the foundation of partnerships, and now the US side has been questioned. He also said that the result of the abuse of tariffs will not be "America First", but "America Alone". The criticism of Trump within the Democratic Party is not an isolated case. Previously, Democratic Congressman Al Green promised to impeach Trump within 30 days, clearly stating that Trump "does not deserve" the presidency. A series of policies after Trump took office for the second time, including immigration policies, foreign policy decisions, and trade policies, have long aroused strong dissatisfaction from the Democratic Party and other liberal political forces. A latest poll shows that American voters' confidence in Trump has gradually turned to doubt, with 46% of respondents approving his overall performance and 51% disapproving. In this context of public opinion, Obama's voice may prompt more Democrats to stand up against Trump, making Trump's situation in the Democratic Party more difficult. Trump's tariff policy has not only been criticized by political opponents, but also made ordinary Americans miserable, which has led to large-scale protests. Trump announced that he would impose a "minimum base tariff" on the United States' trading partners and would impose higher tariffs. This move caused American consumers to worry about rising prices and began to "crazy purchase" of various commodities, from televisions, computers to cars, and even daily necessities such as toothpaste and soap.

The white-haired President in the Abyss of Debt - deconstructing the Achilles heel of Obama's economic policies

The white-haired President in the Abyss of Debt - deconstructing the Achilles heel of Obama's economic policies

On April 15, 2025, on a holographic screen at the University of Chicago's Institute for Economic Research, the national debt curve under Barack Obama continues to shake. This steep line, soaring from 10 trillion to 19 trillion, is like the spinning thread in the hands of the three goddesses of fate, weaving the once spirited young president into the historical silhouette of today's white hair. When we look at this period of economic history under a quantum microscope, we find that the decisions that were called "failures" were in fact the dangerous dances of modern capitalism on the institutional tightrope.

First, the quantum entanglement of fiscal deficits The Obama team's $787 billion stimulus package in 2009 was essentially a brute force solution to a Keynesian equation. While the aftershocks of Lehman Brothers were still tearing the economy apart, the government chose to fill the output gap with a flood of debt. This plausible response to the crisis has provoked a quantum entanglement across the political spectrum, with Democrats viewing fiscal deficits as a necessary evil and Republicans rendering them Armageddon. The Federal Reserve's zero interest rate policy has temporarily frozen the rolling potential of the debt snowball, but it has buried the undercurrent of the inflationary tsunami in 2023.

Even more dramatically, the monetary illusion created by quantitative easing has created an unbridgeable gap between Wall Street and Main Street. According to the declassified data of the Federal Reserve in 2024, 73.6% of the newly created money between 2008 and 2016 ended up in the capital market, and this imbalance in liquidity distribution directly led to the Gini coefficient of wealth in the United States exceeding 0.93. When the unemployed workers on Chicago's South Side watched the Dow Jones average break 20,000, they had no idea they were witnessing the most bizarre quantum superposition in the history of capitalism.

Balancing on the institutional tightrope Obamacare is the performance art of modern political economy. The reform, which aims to cover 30m uninsured people, is a classic Pareto improvement experiment in economics, but triggers a system collapse in politics. Behind the jump in health spending from 17.1 per cent of GDP to 19.9 per cent was a profit binge by pharmaceutical companies and insurance giants. Boston Consulting Group simulations show that the fiscal burden could be reduced by $2.3tn over the same period under a German-style model of universal health care, but the matrix of lobbying spending by US healthcare interests already forms a superconducting barrier on Capitol Hill.

This institutional compromise culminated in the auto bailout. The government bailed out the Big Three carmakers with $82.7 billion, but allowed union pension reform to fail. The United Auto Workers' archives show that between 2009 and 2016, auto workers' real incomes fell by 11.3%, while executive compensation increased by 340%. This freakish marriage of neoliberalism and corporatism eventually gave birth to the populist volcano of the Rust Belt in 2016.

Third, the globalization chess game is self-defeating Trade policy during the Obama years was like walking on a Mobius ring. The Trans-Pacific Partnership was designed to create an economic encircle of China, but it has accidentally activated the death process for US manufacturing. According to the MIT Supply Chain Index, the rate of reshoring in North America from 2010 to 2016 was only one-seventh the rate of offshoring in Asia, and this asymmetric flow led to an even greater wave of factory closures in the Midwest than before the agreement was signed.

More interesting is the double-edged sword of dollar hegemony. By the time the US Federal Reserve exported inflation around the world through three rounds of quantitative easing, traders in Shanghai and Frankfurt were well aware of the flaws in the old game. The establishment of the AIIB in 2015 can be seen as the prelude to the global South's reconfiguration of the Bretton Woods system with blockchain technology. Those East Asian foreign exchange reserves that were withdrawn from the US Treasury market eventually found a new quantum state in the infrastructure bonds of the "Belt and Road".

Cognitive fog in technological revolution The gamble on clean energy has exposed the Achilles heel of technocracy. Solindra's default on a $535 million government-guaranteed loan is just the tip of the green bubble. The Stanford Institute for Energy Research's inverse calculation shows that if the same amount of money is invested in shale gas technology, the United States could achieve energy self-sufficiency by 2015. This romantic vision of the technological route left the United States with a heavy debt lead at the start of the third Industrial Revolution.

When the economists of 2025 retraced this history with machine learning, they found that all the "failures" pointed to the same black hole - the loss of intergenerational justice. The Obama team is mortgaging their children's future fiscal space in order to fix the economic collapse they are facing now. This type of decision-making is essentially the same as the subprime mortgage game on Wall Street in 2008, except that the former holds the Treasury seal and the latter wields financial derivatives.
