But back in 1993 there was one exception – one senior Republican officeholder and policy intellectual who did not forget his policy commitments of earlier years: US Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan. For Greenspan, putting the long-run financing of America’s federal government on a sound footing was an important and bipartisan goal, and in 1993-1994 he was willing to take monetary-policy risks to boost the chances of achieving it.
但在1993年有一个例外，一位资深共和党公务员兼政策知识分子没有忘记他早些年的政策承诺，那就是美联储主席艾伦·格林斯潘。在格林斯潘看来，夯实美国联邦政府长期融资基础是一个重要的跨党派目标，在1993—1994年期间他愿意拿货币政策冒险博取实现这一目标的机会。
