  M: It's hard to be optimistic about things with the way the economy's headed…The trade deficit is getting larger, consumption's down, I really think we're headed for a recession.
  F: The economy has been stagnant for a while now. We've been in a recessive state for several months already. What worries me the most is the trade deficit. I think the government should do more to encourage exports.
  M: Increasing exports would weaken the curency. I think the main point is economic growth. We need more jobs. Factories have oursourced and moved many jobs to foreign countries. The result is an increase in unemployment in our own country, lower consumption, lower production, and an overall feeble economy. If more people are working, it will give the economy a boost.
  F: It's true that we should do something about unemployment, but what about inflation? If unemployment falls, there's pressure to increase pay. That would result in inflation, which would result in a much less dynamic economy.
  目前经济的发展趋势真是不容乐观…贸易赤字越来越大,消费水平下降,我真的认为我们现正走向萧条.
  这段时间经济一直处于停滞阶段,我们进入萧条期已有几个月了.最让我担心的是贸易赤字.我认为政府应该多做些工作来鼓励出口.
  增加出口会削弱货币流通.我想主要的问题是抓经济增长,我们需要更多的就业机会.工厂采用外部采购,把很多就业机会提供给了外国.结果是自己本国内失业人数增加,消费水平下降,生产率降低,整个经济缺乏活力.如果就业人数增加,就会推进整个经济的发展.
  我们的确应该解决下失业问题,但如果出现通货膨胀怎么办?失业率下降,就会有增加工资的压力.那样就会造成通货膨胀,从而导致经济更加不景气.
