Europe is now placing a large bet on an increase in public-sector investment, using a combination of EU-level funding and national investment programs, perhaps augmented by a modification of the EU’s fiscal rules. Given that public-sector underinvestment is a common cause of subpar growth, this is a step in the right direction.
如今，欧洲将宝押在了增加公共部门投资上，将欧盟层面资金和国家投资计划相结合，也许还会辅之以欧盟财政规则的修改。考虑到公共部门投资不足是增长萎靡的常见原因，这一步骤的方向是正确的。
