I certainly agree with this statement. Indeed, the world would be such a horrible and uninhabitable place were it not for the many people who have dedicated their lives to changing the lives of the less fortunate. Society depends on the contribution of all the people within the society to function properly. Therefore, all the members of society including the less fortunate are an important part of society.
They are the largest economic drivers and the pillars of the economy would collapse if the less fortunate failed to participate in society. Therefore, it is our primary purpose to put the less fortunate at the forefront of our needs since we all need each other to survive. Agreeing with Obama seems to make sense since having an obligation to society means having an obligation to ourselves too. The success of the whole society means success to our objectives.

By appreciating Tedd’s efforts, Obama made his point clearer and more powerful. It is also worth noting that the attribute made it possible for Obama to confirm his speech. From this attribute, Obama sought to make it clear that everybody who cares about society would deliver similar sentiments
