This month Erskine Bowles – the American political figure who co-headed a bipartisan fiscal panel last year – is launching a desperate new crusade. As Europe writhes in fiscal meltdown, Bowles is quietly appealing to American chief executive officers to join a new “CEO fiscal reform council” on how to tackle America’s debt headache – and prevent the nation from following Europe’s fate.
上月,美國(guó)政治人物、去年曾擔(dān)任兩黨財(cái)政委員會(huì)聯(lián)席主席的厄斯金?鮑爾斯(Erskine Bowles)發(fā)動(dòng)了一場(chǎng)新的孤注一擲的改革運(yùn)動(dòng)。在歐洲陷入財(cái)政崩盤(pán)之際,鮑爾斯正悄悄呼吁美國(guó)的首席執(zhí)行官們,加入一個(gè)新設(shè)的“CEO財(cái)政改革委員會(huì)”,討論該如何解決美國(guó)的債務(wù)難題——并防止美國(guó)重蹈歐洲的覆轍。
