BERKELEY – The United States is beset by four deficits: a fiscal deficit, a jobs deficit, a deficit in public investment, and an opportunity deficit. The budget proposals put forward by presidential candidate Mitt Romney and his running mate, Paul Ryan, could reduce the fiscal deficit, but would exacerbate the other three.
伯克利—美国正在受四重赤字的困扰：财政赤字、就业赤字、公共投资赤字以及机会赤字。总统候选人米特·罗姆尼及其竞选搭档保罗·莱恩所抛出的预算方案能够减少财政赤字，但将恶化其他三大赤字。
