除非你生活在真空了,你应该直接或间接地已经感觉的到美国经济落的切肤之痛; 我们是否已经看到黎明的曙光了呢?请看以下文字:

(摘自上周的Barrons) ……President had ordered federal departments to speed up construction projects, and the state governments to expand public works projects. He went to Congress asking for a huge tax cut and a doubling of spending on public buildings, dams, highways and harbors. ….He predicted the crisis would end in 60 days. He received widespread praise for his intervention……

听起来熟悉吗??

可惜文中的总统不是Obama, 而是Hoover;故事不是2009, 而是1930年初。


不需要更严重的衰退( which is indeed widely predicted by many conservative encomiasts ),只有一个同样规模的萧条,情况会怎样呢?
- 还有2千五百万人会在今年的2年里失去工作。(7% vs。 25%)
- 平均财富还要缩水80% (Dow 从250点(1/1/1930)到 41 点(7/5/1932))


历史会不会重演呢??
