         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. I think the quote means that if we want something to change, we as a society must find a way to change that, as it won't just be handed to us.<br>2. I think it is both the government and citizens responsibility to fix problems, but one should not have far too much control over the other<br>3.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. To me, this quote means that people need to work to achieve change. People that are waiting for change will not get their desired outcome, but they will get it if they work for it.<br><br>2. I think that both the people and the government are responsible for fixing the problems within the United States. The government needs to work and fix the problems they have created, and the people need to work to achieve the change they desire.<br><br>3.&nbsp;The country, I believe, needs to change and make the country more equal. It is unfair how people have limited rights based on their gender or race. This needs to be fixed, and the government should allow for equal rights for all, no matter who you are.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><br>1. The quote means to me that change will not come if we dwell for the other person to bring change, you/we are the ones that we are the ones for change we all the change we need.&nbsp;<br><br>2. In my opinion the government and government organizations are the most responsible in fixing the the problems in society because&nbsp; if we try to fix a problem that's happening people typically try to fight/attack the person due to their beliefs being different from theirs. I dont think it's just the government's job but it needs to be someone's. &nbsp;<br><br>3. i think some of the changes that are needed for the united states at this moment is women's rights because there is still so many things under that umbrella that need to change like "pink tax" where women's items like razors and other items that are targeted towards women are more expensive than the ones targeted to men. there's also still a wage gap in the work place to every dollar a man makes a women receives .75c I think this should be changed because its unfair.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

The government and us are the ones responsible for fixing the problems. I think that if we want our problems in society to be solved, everyone has to be responsible.<br>3. This country needs to fix any discrimination problem. Many people are still going through this issue and if we need a change in 2022, it would be this. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. To me the quote seems like it would be inspiring for some people back then. To me, the quote means we can't wait for other people to change our future, we are in charge of our future therefore we should change it to the way we see fit<br>2. I believe both the government and the people. The government cant just fix society entirely just by making some laws, the people would have to help and cooperate. The government should lower prices of things to try and restore the balance of money. The people responsible are the government and its people. The people cant fix anything without the help of the government, and the government cant do anything without the citizens cooperation and help.&nbsp;<br>4. Some current changes we need today is to drop gas prices and other prices. Other changes we need from the people is racism, and gender enequality.</div>]]></description>

I think that the problems need to be talked about by the citizens for a problem to be fixed but if enough people complain and protest the government will act and do something about it.<br>3.&nbsp;I think that there needs to be a spot almost like a place to vote where you vote on whether problems need to be fixed or not that way the government can be more based on what the citizens want. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1.&nbsp;This quote means that in order for change to happen we have to work together and we can't keep waiting, we have to act on what we want to solve. <br><br>2.&nbsp; i think US citizens and government  are responsible for fixing society along with the economy. <br><br>3.  A current change our country needs is to have everyone at peace. There's a lot of violence that is happening and as a result people are dying or becoming hurt. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. &nbsp;This quote means to me that we cant wait for other people to solve our problems. To create a better future you need to take matters into your own hands. <br>2. Personally I think that the government and the people need to work together to change and solve the problems of the U.S. There will be no progress unless the government and the citizens of the U.S. don't agree on the changes toward our country. <br>3. currently our country, need to work on dropping the price of goods to make them more affordable</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. To me the quote means that if you want something done you have to do it ourselves and now, because we can wait and hope that someone else does it for us. <br>2.In my opinion both the people and the government are responsible for fixing the problems in society and the economy because it is both the people's and the governments country, so both must put in the effort to keep the country together. <br>3. One current change our country needs is to stop inflation because it is causing a lot of hardship for those people struggling to get by. <br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. I think this quote is trying to say how we cannot rely on others for your own accomplishments. We cannot wait for others to prove our changes. We can't be ignored and you need to explain your mind and thoughts.&nbsp;<br><br>2. In my opinion, The government should be responsible but citizens should help as well. It should be a group effort and no one should be ignored.&nbsp;<br><br>3. I think in our country, current changes that need to be made are certain taxes. Especially pink tax. This also fits the sexism category. Pink tax is a tax on women products. For example it would be pricier for women to purchase the same exact thing men would buy but the product is for "women".&nbsp;<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1.) To me this quote means that we as Americans should not wait and keep on waiting for something miraculous to happen,&nbsp; but we should act even if the time doesn't seem right so that we can get our changes done, and not let the problems we need help with progress any more.&nbsp;<br>2.) In my opinion, it is both the government and the citizens job to help people fix problems. The government should enforce rules and laws and we as Americans should know to respect them. The government can also put out some actual orders and instructions to help Americans follow the laws correctly. With this may come some understanding and agreement between governmental parties and the people of America.&nbsp;<br>3.) I think a big change that should be made in America is the payment to people who deserve it. Teachers are one of the most hard working people on the planet. some go through up to 8 years of college in order to get all of their credentials, and in CT, the average salary for teachers is only $29,571. They go to schools to teach kids, and half of the time they are spoken over, or ignored in their own class rooms. Teachers deserve to have the pay that an office job worker gets. they deserve the money for how much work they put into their jobs, and they do not deserve the mistreatment from everyone else. </div>]]></description>

This is because without the government no new laws can be made and no law enforcement can be enforced. Although, without people, then there is no second say in the new laws and ways of living because it will only be the government.<br>3.&nbsp;Right now in our nation we most need more laws and law enforcement but also more citizens voices. As of now, there are lots of dangers and things that should be stopped by the government but they aren't and people aren't speaking their voice about this.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1.  the quote means to me that we need to work hard to change the problem that we want to change and not wait for them to change it for us<br>2. I think that we can fix the problem if we try are hardest and not just sitting around and waiting for them to change the problem for us<br>3. One change we need is to lower the gas prices because they are really high and most people cant pay the money for a full tank of gas</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. This quote to me means that if we want something fixed or changed we must take action, no one else is going to put the work in for us. <br>2. I believe that it is a mix of who should fix issues in society and the economy. While government supervision is good, people need their voices heard, the economy isn't the same everywhere in America, therefore everyone should have a say on their own economy as well as the government as they are a higher up, who are likely more educated then most.  <br>3. I believe that currently in the world, we need a way to help our economy, as the pandemic really hurt us. we need a leader who will help us regain that economic strength.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. To me this quote means that it is up to us whether we want change or not. Even if it's not the right time, or the right place, change can only begin with one self.<br>2.&nbsp;The ones with the responsibility of fixing the economy are both the government and people. The government and citizens should rely on each other, know what the other side thinks or feels. Knowing both sides opinion instead of one solely is more helpful and leaves space for more thought to prevent bad decisions.<br>3. Today the changes that we need is to work in the economy</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. to me the quote means that you can't rely on someone or something for change, if you want to see a change you have to make it happen.&nbsp;we can't expect there to be a change without us advocating for it. <br>2. i think that the government and the people are both responsible for fixing the problems in society and the economy. they need to work together. the people can't just rely on the hep of the government, but they do need assistance, just like the government can't expect just the people of lower power to make the change.&nbsp;the government has much more power than the people, so they can assist the people by passing needed laws and assistance programs. <br>3. our country needs to work on payment for jobs, because lots of people who work very hard do not get payed as much as they should. they should make more homeless care programs to help people get back on their feet after being on the streets. people should be more obligated to helping others and not just thinking about the effect on themselves. the people also need to work on not judging someone based off of stereotypes or labels. everyone should be seen as equal, no matter how they're "different". pricing has also been increased lots in the past few years and not everyone can afford the necessities that they need for themselves, or their family. also, there needs to be more advocates for the voices of mental health issues and the mentally challenged. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. This quote means that in order for us to see a visible change we have to work together to fix our problems. If we do not act now, we will never be ready for what is coming our way.<br>2. I believe that both the people and the government should work together to change the problems in our society. I think this because the government has the power to create laws, programs and rules that we follow but we all need to work together in order for it to be the way we want it to be.<br>3. I think in our current day, some changes are necessary to be made. One of them being taxes and prices of everyday needs. This is because many people may not have enough to afford for themselves and their families and decreasing the prices of certain things will help our society stay stable and same with our people.</div>]]></description>

I think the government and people should play a role in helping our country whether it is making infastructure even better than it already is or using less water.<br>3. I think we should shorten out military budget by something very small like 5% which is still way higher than china to reduce healthcare prices an stuff.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. This quote is interesting because it talks about how we should be the change we want to see. were just not going to wait for something to happen we need to change this is what it means to me. 2. The united states government is responsible for fixing problems that arise in the united states.  3. we need to stop charging so much for groceries and things in general because i don't got that kind of money to be paying for $6.00 a gallon for gas. that is just crazy. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1.   This quote means that you shouldn't wait for someone or something to change your life you should take control of the problems you have and make them better.<br>2.  I think it is mostly the governments responsibility but that doesn't mean that the people should also hold accountable for the things they can control.<br>3.  I believe our country our country should change is lower cost on everything not everyone has the money to buy things and just raising the cost even more doesn't help anyone.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. To this quote means that we as a whole nation need to step up, use our voice and and take action. To not wait for issues to be solved, or new changes to just come&nbsp; straight to us, but to be the change we all work for.&nbsp;<br>2. In my opinion, I believe society and the government should be fixing issues together as a united nation. For the government to lead while society steps up to helps the government's choices.&nbsp;<br>3. I think one change we need in our&nbsp; country is the gases prices. I believe this because every time a driver passes by a gas station, they have a fear of not having enough money when looking at the gas&nbsp; prices increasing every hour.&nbsp; Many people do not get paid enough a day, to pay for over 50$ of gas prices. Some people have far jobs to drive to, or have children to drive to school, to run errans. Many people have to not spend money on necessary things or to not buy&nbsp; needs for their children/family because they have to save money just to fill up their car with overpriced gas.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

We are the chosen ones to help our world be a better place.<br>2. I think it is up to the government and the economy. I think this because the government has more control than us so they will obviously play a bigger role than us but, we still need to pitch in what we think should happen to make the U.S. a better place so we agree on what the government is doing.<br>3. Everyone should be more equal. Prices shouldn't be raised for certain things that men or women want. We shouldn't have to pay so much for gas. Finally, women and men should get paid the same amount of money (no matter the race, age, etc.).</div>]]></description>

Gas pricing being high is a big issue in 2022 for us we should work towards lowering it because some people can't afford a full tank of gas because of inflation </div>]]></description>

I think that the government should have to help the people fix the problems within the united states. I think this because the government has all the power and that us citizens cant change the US by ourselfs we need some help from the government <br>3. I think there are some changes in the US that we need to make. One of these is the gas prices. The gas prices are way to right now and its effecting alot of peoples lives negitively and we need to open more pipelines and lower the prices. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. This quote means that relying on other people isn´t the right thing to do. It means that change is within yourself, you make the change, waiting on people or time<br>&nbsp;won´t make change.&nbsp;<br>2. In my opinion I think that the government and citizens are responsible for fixing the problems throughout society and the economy because the government has power, and the citizens have power to change society and what they think is right.&nbsp;<br>3. For this year i think the current changes our Country needs is to decrease the price of things like gas, and money. Financially most people are starting not to be able to afford these things, which makes it difficult to live an everyday life.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. This quote means that if we want something fixed we need to take action now, we cant reply on other people to fix our issues we need to start and start now and  stop waiting.<br>2. I believe both the government and the people are responsible for fixing the issue because i think it is better to work together and have everyone on the same page, you'll be able to get more done.&nbsp;<br>3. I believe our country has to fix inflation with money, because it is making it very difficult for people to buy things because the prices have increased so much.&nbsp;And it is challenging a lot of families and making it very hard for them to provide. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1.To me this quote means we shouldn't wait for someone to make change for us we have to make the change ourselves because we are capable for making change and we need to step in and take action to do so otherwise there won't be any change <br>2.I believe that Government and The people have to be held responsible because the government wouldn't run without the people and the people need the government so if one or the other is held responsible then its going to end up in a drastic turn so it's important that both government and the people are held accountable<br>3.The changes that still need to be made as a country is that we need to stop holding people accountable for something we did so in a sense its owning up to what you did without telling that someone else was at fault for it.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. I think this quote means that you cannot wait for someone or something to change, because if you do, nothing will happen, nothing will change, you need to be the solution to your own problem<br><br>2. I think that it is up to the government and the people, if everyone wants things changed but only one group of people is willing to help out there won't be much done. So if we all help each other out, things could work out more successfully.<br><br>3. Now we need to change the prices and food, clothing, gas, products. Everything is to expensive.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. To me this quote means that the people around you should not slow you down. You should always keep going and keep pushing even if others aren't keeping up<br>2. I think everyone is responsible for changing the problems within the society and economy because then the problems would be able to be solved faster.<br>3. I think one thing our country needs to change currently is lowering gas prices and lowering taxes to make it possible for people to live easier and reduce the amount of people in debt</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1.What this qoute means to me is that if we want something different and don't want it to be the sameway it is, we are going to have to change it ourselves,because we can't just leave it and expect for it&nbsp; to change itself because it's probaley never going to do that.<br>2.I think mainly that the Government should've tooken all the work of changing something about United States because it is also their job into creating laws to make their state and better place then it is.<br>3.A current change we should've have in 2022 is by having less taxes bill and lower gas prices because most adults/parents are going to need to work a lot harder then what they usually do because they need to be able to have food in their homes and food for their kids.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1.this quote is interesting to me it talks about how change will not come if we wait for it we are the ones who have to do something about it or it wont change for you it will change for everyone else. in other words if we don't contribute to the change then it won't change for us.<br>2.in society in my opinion we all need to help fix the problems in society we have to rely on each other not just the government or not just the citizens <br>3. in today's life I think that we need more citizens helping in the decisions of things in the towns,states, and country <br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. The quote said by Barack Obama reflects on the way our country needs to start taking more action in order to see the success and prosperity within the United States. For me, this quote serves as a motivator, to step up and take charge of what needs to be fixed because no other person is going to take care of your problems. Waiting is not an option, action is.&nbsp;<br><br>2. I firmly believe that it is both the government's and the people's responsibility to fix the problems within our society. Government cannot work without its people, therefore together our influence and determination will allow us to overcome our challenges, rather than putting all the blame and responsibility on one another.&nbsp;<br><br>3. The US government should definitely lower its prices on product goods and pay more attention to the poverty issues and foreign affairs within the nation. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. If we have a problem, and dont take action, Nothing would change. We cant wait around for something to change.  We need to take control as a society.<br>2. It should be a 50/50 between government and the people of are society, to change and fix are problems.<br>3. In are time, we need to have freedom of speech and be able to say something that may be different from what others think. Even if their wrong, they should be able to say what they want.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1.To me this quote means that only we can change everything. It doesn't matter , whether we want that or not, we must start to change something, because only we can do that. People are always waiting for some changes, but they need to start to understand that we are who can change everything<br>2. In my opinion the government and people should help our country together. Of course the government has more responsibility, but it doesn't mean that people shouldn't help. If they will work together then the country will be better.</div><pre>3. Food prices are very expensive, medicine too, especially for people who have just arrived in the country. In addition, the US is much dirtier than European countries, which is very bad for the environment.But in the whole world there are so many problems too.

We are now the ones we have been waiting for. We are already like that and only now we can only embody what we want&nbsp;<br>2. Everyone decides and bears responsibility. As ordinary citizens and the defend their wishes and needs.<br>3.i seems to me that people need to be more grouped and help each other.
