1．  道明立场
2．  政府的官僚制度通常会拖延问题的解决
3．  政府会忽视将来的问题
4．  越早解决问题，越容易解决问题，也越少损失
5．  注重可预见的问题也会有政府官员滥用权利的危险

Should more government concentration be put on solving the immediate problems of today rather than on anticipated ones of future? In principle, for efficiency consideration along with realizing the weakness of bureaucracy, I hold a qualified position on that more attempts should be made on the anticipated future problems.

Firstly, it is the inherent weaknesses of bureaucracy, delaying problems and over-extracting benefit from the future, driving my favoralble opinion over the anticipated problems. Political issues are complicated and almost each involves multiple aspects of inconsistent interests. Therefore, government is unwilling to address problems when it seems minor, showing limited conflict and harm, to reserve the resource to please the discontented interest groups. Moreover, when a government is confronted with inevitable problems, legal procedures such as investigation, public consulting, congress approval, internal discussion and enacting are time-consuming. Overall, more than likely, a problem to be solved is delayed rather than addressed too advanced.

In addition, since the most governments in the world are representing the contemporary people, governments tend to inappropriately extract benefit from the forthcoming generations. Human being are ego-driving, hence, more or less, the governments they choose are so. People may closely concern the lives of their children, however, people concern less the lives of their grand children. This is analogous to the fact that most people have dominant interest of their own over the community as a whole. In this sense, we do not expect the anticipated problems in future, even though critical to human being, are of sufficient concerns. The global environmental distortion problem, which is largely of theoretical consensus but of far from sufficient governmental concerns and reactions, is a striking example.

On the other hand, given one problem is anticipated, in principle, the earlier is it to dealt with, the less cost will occur. Every problem evolves following certain stages. Before one problem becomes a surge, it typically emerges and then accumulates growing energy or fuel. If governments are able to identify potential problems while they are not strongly self-motivated or actually emerge, it is always a dominant strategy to control it in its early stage or prevent it, for with much less effort and the absence of significant contingent lose.

Nevertheless, it is a subjective matter that whether a problem is expected to take place and to what extent it will develop to. Therefore, focusing anticipated problems or the claimed ones exposes the government power and resource to the risk of appropriation. Public officials can use the limited public resource for own interest by simply claiming problems anticipated. For example, the justification of the latest Iraq war is still under controversy.

In conclusion, though focusing more on anticipated future problems are not unqualifiedly beneficial, a balanced consideration suggests that, given the modern bureaucratic realization, it is advisable to think ahead more.

Should more government concentration be put on solving the immediate problems of today rather than on anticipated ones of future? In principle, for efficiency consideration along with realizing the weakness of bureaucracy, (好!) I hold a qualified position on that more attempts should be made on the anticipated future problems.

Firstly, it is the inherent weaknesses of bureaucracy, delaying problems and over-extracting benefit from the future, driving my favorable opinion over the anticipated problems.(值得借鉴) Political issues are complicated and almost each involves multiple aspects of inconsistent interests. Therefore, government is unwilling to address problems when it seems minor,(trivial) showing limited (slight) conflict and harm, (but) to reserve the resource to please the discontented interest groups. Moreover, when a government is confronted with inevitable problems, legal procedures such as investigation, public consulting, congress approval, internal discussion and enacting are time-consuming. Overall, more than likely, a problem to be solved is delayed rather than addressed too advanced.
本段存在一些问题，官僚作风会影响长远问题的解决，而对当前问题就没有影响吗？而且为了彻底地解决问题，我们也需要采取谨慎态度，对方案进行科学论证。这是应该区别开的。

In addition, since the most governments in the world are representing the (interests of) contemporary people, governments tend to inappropriately extract benefit from the forthcoming generations. Human being are ego-driving, hence(不作连词), more or less, the governments they choose are so. People may closely concern the lives of their children, however, people concern less the lives of their grandchildren. This is analogous to the fact that most people have dominant interest of their own over the community as a whole. In this sense, we do not expect the anticipated problems in future, even though critical to human being, are of sufficient concerns(?). The global environmental distortion (deterioration) problem, which is largely of theoretical consensus but of far from sufficient governmental concerns and reactions, is a striking example.

On the other hand, given one problem is anticipated, in principle, the earlier is it to (be) dealt with, the less cost will occur. Every problem evolves following certain stages. Before one problem becomes a surge, it typically emerges and then accumulates growing energy or fuel. If governments are able to identify potential problems while they are not strongly self-motivated or actually emerge, it is always a dominant strategy to control it in its early stage or prevent it, for with much less effort and the absence of significant contingent lose.

Nevertheless, it is a subjective matter that whether a problem is expected to take place and to what extent it will develop to. Therefore, focusing (on) anticipated problems or the claimed ones exposes the government power and resource to the risk of appropriation(?). Public officials can use the limited public resource for own interest by simply claiming problems anticipated. For example, the justification of the latest Iraq war is still under controversy.

In conclusion, though focusing more on anticipated future problems are not unqualifiedly beneficial, a balanced consideration suggests that, given the modern bureaucratic realization, it is advisable to think ahead more.

本文语句流畅，一些句子很值得学习。
不足之处在于段落之间的联系，或说是一致性。比如第一段的官僚作风问题，感觉没有把它和你的论点结合起来；还有第四段，政府若能把近期问题解决好，不是也能节省开支吗？对论点的支持力不强。
