keep your country’s economy strong in the short term. Countries that fail to recognize that are going to have a rough time.
Have a rough time now or a much rougher time later with further problems on top. The choice is easy if you’re willing to face reality. You’re literally admitting, that what you are suggesting is only a short term solution, even though you again use the wrong word here: it’s not short term but temporary and it’s not a solution but an arrangement.
