In the US, the disruption took the form of yet another fiscal mini-drama. With a dysfunctional Congress again letting down the American people, the country is now on the receiving end of a budgetary sequester – another self-manufactured headwind to economic growth, job creation, and progress on reducing income and wealth inequalities.
而在美国，这种破坏效应正在以另一种财政闹剧的形式出现。由于机能失调的国会又一次让美国人民失望，如今美国又将要承受一场预算困局——又是一场自作自受的，遏制经济增长和创造就业机会、无助于改善收入减少和财富不平等的不利因素。
