Now, as I have traveled around the region, a lot of people have asked me about how the United States is going to resolve our debt ceiling challenge. Well, let me assure you we understand the stakes. We know how important this is for us and how important it is for you. The political wrangling in Washington is intense right now. But these kinds of debates have been a constant in our political life throughout the history of our republic. And sometimes, they are messy. I well remember the government shutdown of the 1990s; I had a front row seat for that one. But this is how an open and democratic society ultimately comes together to reach the right solutions. So I am confident that Congress will do the right thing and secure a deal on the debt ceiling, and work with President Obama to take the steps necessary to improve our long-term fiscal outlook. Through more than a century of growth, the American economy has repeatedly shown its strength, its resilience, and its unrivaled capacity to adapt and reinvent itself. And it will keep doing so.
当我在本地区访问时,很多人都问我美国将怎样应对我们在债务上限方面的挑战。让我向你们保证,我们理解其中的利害。我们知道这件事对我们和你们都极为重要。目前华盛顿的政治角力很激烈。但这种争论在贯穿我们共和国历史的政治生活中一直存在。有时它会给人以乱糟糟的印象。我清楚地记得上世纪90年代政府被迫关闭;我有机会亲眼目睹了这一幕。但是,这正是一个开放和民主的社会最终达成共识制定正确的解决方案的过程。因此,我相信国会会作出正确的选择,就债务上限达成协议,并与奥巴马总统合作,采取必要步骤,改善我们长期的财政前景。在一个多世纪的增长中,美国经济一再表现出其实力、韧性以及无与伦比的适应和自我更新能力。这种情况会继续下去。
