💬 双语例句

  1. The eurozone’s structure imposed the kind of rigidity associated with the gold standard. The single currency took away its members’ most important mechanism for adjustment – the exchange rate – and the eurozone circumscribed monetary and fiscal policy.

    这就剩下了第四个解释:欧元的问题要比个别国家的政策和架构更大。 欧元自诞生以来就是存在缺陷的。 即使是有史以来最好的政策制定者也无法令其顺利运行。 欧元区的架构会产生一种与金本位类似的刚性。 而单一货币剥夺其成员国最重要的调整机制 — — 汇率 — — 同时欧元区又限制了其货币和财政政策。

  2. Unfortunately, any country that taxes capital too aggressively will only succeed in chasing it to regions where the tax burden is lighter. In a globalized world, national governments’ ability to tax potentially mobile factors of production is sharply circumscribed.
