… the fiscal adjustment strategy needs to take into account the negative impact on short-term growth that a fiscal tightening is likely to have. At least in current market conditions, fiscal adjustment at a steady pace(for countries that are not under immediate market pressure) has some advantages with respect to a front-loaded adjustment. 2, record 1, English, - short%2Dterm%20growth

[…] las perspectivas de crecimiento a corto plazo de los países de bajo ingreso como grupo ya fueron revisadas a la baja durante el último año, aunque no tanto como las de otros grupos de países. Entre estos, los déficits fiscales y los coeficientes de deuda pública han aumentado en varios casos. El descenso drástico de los precios del petróleo ha aumentado los retos para el crecimiento de los países de bajo ingreso que son exportadores de petróleo. 1, record 1, Spanish, - crecimiento%20a%20corto%20plazo

De fait, il n'existe pas d'autre moyen de financer un système de protection sociale efficace que de taxer massivement l'ensemble de l'échelle de revenus.
