The book has two main strengths that Mr Obama would do well to emulate. First, whilearguing, rightly, that in the short run the American economy urgently needs a boost fromgovernment spending, it spells out in simple terms why Uncle Sam also needs a crediblestrategy for sorting out the country s long-term fiscal problems. Mr Clinton shows far moreenthusiasm for the report of the Simpson-Bowles deficit-reduction commission than hasso far been mustered by its creator, Mr Obama.
这本书有两个优点奥巴马应该努力效仿。第一,在正确地论述短期内美国经济迫切需要政府支出助推的同时,这本书也以简明扼要的词语阐释了为什么山姆大叔需要一个值得信赖的策略来解决美国长期的财政问题。辛普森鲍勒斯赤字削减委员会由奥巴马组建。但比起那些到目前为止召集起来的委员们,克林顿对该委员会的报告表现出更为强烈的热情。
Second, Mr Clinton is at his famously wonkish best in scouring America and the world to find practical ideas for getting people back towork. Many of these require smart government, which more often than not meanspartnering with private businesses and non-profit organisations. Some ideas are evenborrowed from the Republicans, including at least one from his old foe, Newt Gingrich. MrClinton is especially keen on the idea of modernising America s infrastructure and creatingenvironmentally friendly green jobs, but he also sees merit in more trade liberalisation,immigration and getting at the country s huge reserves of cheap natural gas through fracking.
