Dr.Stiglitz:
Thankyouforinvitingmehere.Therecoveryofoureconomy,andsustainableandharmoniousgrowthoftheeconomyisofgreatconcernandIamverygladtotalkaboutitwithyou.Iwanttotalkaboutthenatureofthisfinancialturbulence,America’sresponse,whatneedstobedonebesideswhatthegovernmenthasalreadydone.Intheearlyperiodoffinancialcrisis,uponmeetingtheeconomicdownturn,wethoughttheeconomicproblemsinUSweredecouplingandtheseproblemswouldnotbespreadingtoothercountries.Inglobalization,however,everypartoftheworldisintegrated.TheproblemintheUSisspreadingtoothercountries.Americasupportedtheideaofderegulation.However,thankstowhathappenstoothercountries,wecanseeclearlywhattheproblemsare.Americanotonlyexportedthetoxicmortgageproblemsbutourrecessionaswell.Wearefacingeconomicrecessionandtherecoveryoftheeconomyrequiresacooperativeeffort.
Thisturbulenceisdifferentfromtheonethathappenedin1997.CountrieslikeIndonesiaandKorearecoveredveryquicklyfromthefinancialcrisisbecauseatthattimetheystillcouldexportandtherestoftheworldwasgrowingrobustly.Butthecurrentexportsituationisquitedifferentfromthatperiod.Accordingtothelateststatistics,thisyearisthefirstyearofnegativeglobalgrowthoftheAmericaneconomy.IMF’sestimationisregardedtobetoooptimisticandwearefacingaseriouseconomicdownturn.
Therearetwomajorproblemscontributingtothiscrisis.Firstisaboutthecreditproblemandmacroeconomicproblem.Whenbeingaskedaboutthiseconomicdownturn,Mr.Bushsaidthatwebuilttoomanyhouses.Ishouldsaythatbesidestalkingaboutthisphenomenonsuperficially,weshouldaskwhywebuiltsomanyhouses.Therearesomeanswers,suchasloosemonetarypolicyandlackofregulation.Why?

ThesecondprobleminglobaldemandisduetowhattheIMFdidyearsago.TheIMFdidpoorlyinthe1997’sfinancialcrisis,sothedisappointedcountriesarenowmakingagreatamountofforeignreserve.ApremierinacountrysaidthatbecauseofIMF’spoorperformance,weshouldsavemorereserveandsaveourselves.Thissoundsrationaltoanindividualcountry,butitisnottothewholedevelopmentoftheworld.WhenfacingthisinsufficientmarketdemandAmericasaiddonotworryaboutinsufficiencyofdemand,wewilltakecareofthisandkeeppaying.Itisstrangethatthewholeeconomicdevelopmentoftheworldreliesontherichestcountryintheworldthroughitscontinuingpaying.
Whatwehavedonetodaycannotsolvetheaboveproblems.WhataretheresponsesofAmerica?
First,letustalkaboutstimulatingpolicy.IshouldsaythatBush’sadministration’spolicywasnotsufficient.ManypeoplearenotKeynesianswhentheysaytheyare.TheincreaseoftheexpenditureoftheFederalgovernmentofAmericaincreasedto800billioninthepasttwoyears,whileincomeisdecreasing.Astothestateexpenditure,whentherevenuegoesdown,itwillbereduced.Now,therevenueisreduced,soisthestateexpenditure.Thedeficitis100billionayearandnowwehavea400billiondeficit.Asjustastate,Californiahasa10billiondeficit.Whencombiningtheexpenditurefromthefederallevelandstatelevel,thetotalstimulatingaidisjust400billion,not800.So,thestimulatingmoneyisnotenough.Additionally,thetaxreductionpolicyisproblematicandnotwelldesigned.Wehaveestimatedthatthetaxreductionisuseless.Manypeoplesavemoney.Thoughthishelpsindividualfamilyprotectionforthelongrun,itisharmfultotheAmericaneconomy.Whennoticingthereductionoftheirretirementpensions,thedeepdiveofthestockmarket,andtherealestatemarketcollapse,everybodyworriesaboutthefuture.Peoplesavemoremoneyunderthetaxreductionpolicyandthispolicycannotserveasanefficientstimulustotheeconomicdevelopment.Wedoneedastimulatingplan,butwearenotdoingthatverywell.
