ssionate or caring。 I have only one thing to say: U…turn if you want to。 The lady's not for turning。

那些力劝我增加支出,不分青红皂白地相信我们将帮助失业者和小型企业的人,并不是仁慈或者富于同情心或者人道的。我只有一件事要说:如果你想大转弯你就转,但这位女士不会转。

NARRATOR: In Britain; the battle lines were drawn。 In America; the fight was already under way。

旁白:在英国,斗争还在谋划;而在美国,战斗已经开始了。

Chapter 16: Reagan Rides In '8:17'

第十六章:里根上台

Onscreen title: USA; 1979

字幕标题:美国,1979年

NARRATOR: Things were at a low in the United States。 President Carter spoke of malaise and loss of confidence in the country。 Revolution in Iran had led to a second oil shock and Americans held hostage in Tehran。 Despite the beginning of deregulation; inflation was still at record heights。 Carter's attempts to follow Keynes's formula and spend his way out of trouble were going nowhere。

旁白:美国一片衰败景象,卡特总统谈到国内存在的不安和信心丧失。伊朗革命引起第二次石油危机;美国人在德黑兰被扣为人质。尽管开始取消管制,通货膨胀率仍然创历史最高水平。卡特试图追随凯恩斯的方法来摆脱危机,但遭到了失败。

LARRY LINDSEY; Assistant to the President for Economic Policy: Jimmy Carter was maybe the high point of Keynesian behavior。 And it simply was not working。

LARRY LINDSEY,总统经济政策助理:吉米。卡特也许是最彻底地遵循凯恩斯主义者行动的,但是它就是不起作用。

GEORGE SHULTZ: Toward the end of the Carter administration; with inflation out of control; Paul Volcker was made chairman of the Federal Reserve。 He understood the problems。

GEORGE SHULTZ:在卡特总统的任期将要结束时,Paul Volcker成为美联储的主席,当时通货膨胀已经失控。他清楚当时的问题。

JIMMY CARTER: I'm grateful to Paul Volcker for being willing now to accept the oath of office and the responsibilities of the Federal Reserve system of our country。 Paul?

卡特:我很感谢Paul Volcker愿意在这个时候接受任命,负起我们国家联邦储备系统的责任,Paul?

NARRATOR: Paul Volcker was steeped in the ideas of Austrian school economics。

旁白:Paul Volcker
