Because if you dont show theres Growth Potential i should say portugal increased its experts substantially, exports substantially. You have to be competitive. You have to have deregulation. Those are even more important than a devaluation, because a devaluation only last so long, whereas if you make the structural changes this is going to be a challenge for you had 14 of these stimulus programs since the late 1990s in japan, and none of them have really done the job.
