El equilibrio fiscal y un tipo de cambio flexible disminuyen sustancialmente el riesgo de crisis —sobre esto no hay duda—, pero el peligro no desaparece. Persisten riesgos que, previsiblemente, se intensificarán con los flujos de capital y la expansión del crédito. Actualmente,

Pine trees are also one of the plants that are often planted near Chinese architecture. In addition to being loved because of their noble character, the sound of wind blowing through pine trees is also very pleasant. 欲得朝朝见,阶前故种君。 知君死则已,不死会凌云。

Now tell us about the primary surpluses every government ran for decades, and the inflation that helped in the 1970s. Oh, you don’t know? Well fancy that.
