One might have hoped that America would be the first to offer large amounts of money to help the many innocent victims of the policies it had championed. But it did not, and Obama had to fight hard to extract even limited amounts for the International Monetary Fund from a reluctant Congress.
有人也希望美国能带头拿出一大笔钱来接济那些因其政策而遭难的受害者，但美国却没有这样做，甚至连总统奥巴马都要在国会作了大量工作之后才能从世界货币基金组织(IMF)有限的资金中抽一点出来使用。
