tags. We'll preserve that structure. We'll also translate the meta description. The suggested English meta description is: "Treasury Secretary Bessent says the US must grow its way out of debt, not cut its way out. The strategy risks fiscal instability if growth doesn't outpace deficits and interest costs." We'll translate that to Spanish, ensuring it's 150-160 characters. Let's count the English: "Treasury Secretary Bessent says the US must grow its way out of debt, not cut its way out. The strategy risks fiscal instability if growth doesn't outpace deficits and interest costs." - that's about 150? Let's count: I'll copy: "Treasury Secretary Bessent says the US must grow its way out of debt, not cut its way out. The strategy risks fiscal instability if growth doesn't outpace deficits and interest costs." - I'll count characters: T-r-e-a-s-u-r-y (8) space (1) S-e-c-r-e-t-a-r-y (9) space (1) B-e-s-s-e-n-t (7) space (1) s-a-y-s (4) space (1) t-h-e (3) space (1) U-S (2) space (1) m-u-s-t (4) space (1) g-r-o-w (4) space (1) i-t-s (3) space (1) w-a-y (3) space (1) o-u-t (3) space (1) o-f (2) space (1) d-e-b-t (4) space (1) n-o-t (3) space (1) c-u-t (3) space (1) i-t-s (3) space (1) w-a-y (3) space (1) o-u-t (3) space (1) .

(1) That's a lot. Let's count properly: I'll write it without spaces? Actually, we can count with a tool, but we'll approximate. It's likely around 150. We'll translate to Spanish: "El Secretario del Tesoro, Bessent, dice que EE.UU. debe salir de la deuda mediante el crecimiento, no mediante recortes. La estrategia arriesga inestabilidad fiscal si el crecimiento no supera los déficits y los costos de intereses." Let's count characters: "El Secretario del Tesoro, Bessent, dice que EE.UU. debe salir de la deuda mediante el crecimiento, no mediante recortes. La estrategia arriesga inestabilidad fiscal si el crecimiento no supera los déficits y los costos de intereses." - that's likely over 160. We need to be concise. Maybe: "Bessent: EE.UU. debe crecer para salir de la deuda, no recortar. La estrategia arriesga inestabilidad fiscal si el crecimiento no supera déficits y costos de intereses." Let's count: "Bessent: EE.UU. debe crecer para salir de la deuda, no recortar. La estrategia arriesga inestabilidad fiscal si el crecimiento no supera déficits y costos de intereses." - that's about 150?

La estrategia arriesga inestabilidad fiscal si el crecimiento no supera déficits y costos de intereses." That might be around 150. We'll check later. We'll translate the content.

The Growth-First Strategy

Bessent's comments lay out a clear fiscal philosophy: the answer to the debt problem is a bigger economy, not a smaller government. The idea is that faster growth will boost tax revenue, which will eventually bring the deficit
