A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
经济
Economy
Stock market corrections, although painful at the time, are actually a very healthy part of the whole mechanism, because there are always speculative excesses that develop, particularly during the long bull market.
股市调整虽然在当时是痛苦的，但实际上是整个机制中非常健康的一部分，因为总会出现投机过度，尤其是在长期牛市期间。
Believe me, the next step is a currency crisis because there will be a rejection of the dollar, the rejection of the dollar is a big, big event, and then your personal liberties are going to be severely threatened.
相信我，下一步是货币危机，因为将会出现对美元的排斥，排斥美元是一件大事，你的个人自由将会受到严重威胁。
I did something a lot of people will have to do in this economy if they want to eventually land their dream job. I turned down an offer to take a high-paying position in another field because it wouldn't fulfill me.
我做了一件很多人在当前经济形势下必须要做的事，如果他们想最终找到他们梦想的工作。我拒绝了另一个领域的高薪职位，因为它不能满足我。
I will not let anyone tell me we must spend more money. This crisis did not come about because we issued too little money but because we created economic growth with too much money and it was not sustainable growth.
我不会让任何人告诉我我们必须花更多的钱。这场危机的发生不是因为我们发行的货币太少，而是因为我们用太多的货币创造了经济增长，而这不是可持续的增长。
That subject has lost its one time appeal to economists as our science has become more abstract, but my interest has even grown more intense as the questions raised by the sociology of science became more prominent.

Today we have access to highly advanced technologies. But our social and economic system has not kept up with our technological capabilities that could easily create a world of abundance, free of servitude and debt.

So if we are really concerned about generating more taxes, we ought to be investing in our people, not taking away the kinds of resources that contribute to their ability to become greater taxpayers in this country.

I represent the Port of Philadelphia, and I know firsthand the important role that ports play in the national and global economy. I have also seen how simple accidents can have devastating impacts on the port system.

During the period of capital moving from one employment to another, the profits on that to which capital is flowing will be relatively high, but will continue so no longer than till the requisite capital is obtained.

‘Form follows profit’ is the aesthetic principle of our times. Thus, design skill is measured today by the architect’s ability to build the largest possible enclosure for the smallest investment in the quickest time.

在有限的世界里，物质消费的无限增长是不可能的。
You might say that economic history is the history of people learning to manage risk.
你可能会说经济史是人们学习管理风险的历史。
We need to recognise that what really matters isn't buying more and more consumer goods, but family, friends, and knowing that we are doing something worthwhile with our lives. Helping to reduce the appalling consequences of world poverty should be part of that reassessment.
我们需要认识到，真正重要的不是购买越来越多的消费品，而是家人、朋友，以及知道我们在用生命做一些有价值的事情。帮助减少世界贫困的可怕后果应该是重新评估的一部分。
