    If you were President of the United States, how would you relive the National Debt?

    Dec 08, 2007 by Chris Hansen | Posted in Current Events

    Hollande to be sworn in as French president amid Europe's debt woes

    18.05.12

    Berlin (CNN) -- France's freshly inaugurated Socialist president plunged Tuesday into the economic mess that has perplexed policymakers and threatened governments by calling for policies that would spur growth in the ailing eurozone.

    "I said that my wish is that growth is not an empty phrase, that it is something which, in reality, is happening," Francois Hollande told reporters in a joint news conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Berlin. "Because, without growth, we can't do whatever we want, we won't reach the goals which we want to -- and to reduce the debt and deficit."
