Unfortunately, today’s top policy priority is to address remote possibilities, whereas the urgent task at hand – coordinating and implementing efforts to raise and sustain growth and job creation – is being ignored. Meanwhile, cuts in social and welfare spending are only making things worse, as employment and consumer demand fall further.
不幸的是，如今的优先政策是解决长期问题，而当务之急——协调行动并实施提振和维持增长和就业创造的政策——却被忽视了。与此同时，削减社会和福利支出只能让事态进一步恶化，因为就业和消费者需求将进一步萎缩。
