隨著通貨膨脹的擔憂和美國總統唐納德·特朗普的關稅威脅繼續稱重，比特幣和加密價格已經下降

隨著通貨膨脹的恐懼和美國總統唐納德·特朗普的關稅威脅繼續對比特幣價格（以及對新的，神秘的黑客攻擊）的新恐懼，比特幣和加密價格已經下降。

U.S. president Donald Trump could yet fire Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell, a leading Democratic senator has warned as new data showed the U.S. trade deficit widened in February.

美國總統唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）可能會解僱美聯儲主席杰羅姆·鮑威爾（Jerome Powell），一位領先的民主黨參議員警告說，新數據顯示，美國貿易赤字在2月擴大。

Nobody is safe, not even the chairman of the Federal Reserve, ” Massachusetts senator Elizabeth Warren told Bloomberg (NYSE:SPHB) on Wednesday. “If [Trump] can just mow through every civil servant, if he can just mow through the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, it’s a form of lawlessness and all the power belongs to the king.”

馬薩諸塞州參議員伊麗莎白·沃倫（Elizabeth Warren）告訴彭博社（紐約證券交易所：SPHB），沒有人是安全的，甚至不是美聯儲的主席。

Senator Warren’s remarks come as Trump, aided by Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) billionaire Elon Musk who’s leading the Doge department of government efficiency in a rampage through the federal government, has gutted agencies, departments and institutions in the mere two months he’s been back in the White House.

參議員沃倫（Warren）的言論是特朗普（Trump），在特斯拉（納斯達克（Nasdaq：TSLA））的億萬富翁埃隆·馬斯克（Elon Musk）的幫助下，他在聯邦政府橫衝直撞地領導了政府效率，他只有兩個月的時間回到了白宮。

After slashing the size and scope of the Environmental Protection Agency and axing programs that help low-income families heat their homes and prepare for natural disasters, Trump has now set his sights on slashing the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), which was launched in March 2020 to provide small businesses with payroll support during the Covid pandemic.

在削減了環境保護局的規模和範圍和斧頭計劃，這些計劃幫助低收入家庭加熱自己的房屋並為自然災害做準備後，特朗普現在將目光投向了削減薪水保護計劃（PPP）的目光，該計劃於2020年3月啟動，在Covid Pandmeam期間為小型企業提供小型企業。

According to a recent report by the Small Business Administration (SBA), the PPP has provided over $95 billion in forgivable loans to more than 11 million small businesses, saving an estimated 51 million jobs.

根據小型企業管理局（SBA）的最新報告，PPP已向超過1100萬個小型企業提供了超過950億美元的原諒貸款，從而節省了5100萬個工作崗位。

However, Trump has become increasingly critical of the program in recent weeks, claiming that it is being abused by large businesses and that it is not reaching the small businesses that need it most.

但是，最近幾週，特朗普對該計劃變得越來越批評，聲稱該計劃正受到大型企業的濫用，並且沒有達到最需要它的小型企業。

“The Paycheck Protection Program is a total scam. It’s being used by big companies to line their own pockets, and small businesses are getting screwed,” Trump wrote in a recent post on his Truth Social platform.

特朗普在最近的一篇關於他的真相社交平台的帖子中寫道：“薪水保護計劃是一個全部騙局。大公司正在使用自己的口袋，而小型企業也被搞砸了。”

The Paycheck Protection Program is a U.S. government initiative to provide small businesses with payroll support during the Covid pandemic.

薪水保護計劃是美國政府的一項倡議，旨在為小型企業提供薪資大流行期間的薪資支持。

The program, which is part of the CARES Act that was passed by Congress in March 2020, provides forgivable loans to small businesses in an effort to prevent mass layoffs and keep workers employed during the crisis.

該計劃是國會於2020年3月通過的《照料法》的一部分，它向小型企業提供了可原諒的貸款，以防止大規模裁員並使工人在危機期間受僱。

The PPP was later extended and expanded by additional legislation, including the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act of 2020 and the Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small Businesses, Nonprofits, and Institutions Act.

PPP後來通過其他立法擴展並擴大了PPP，包括《薪水保護計劃靈活性法》以及對艱苦的小型企業，非營利組織和機構法案的經濟援助。

The PPP is administered by the Small Business Administration (SBA), which has approved more than 11 million loans for a total of over $95 billion.

PPP由小型企業管理局（SBA）管理，該管理局已批准超過1100萬貸款，總計超過950億美元。

According to a recent report by the SBA, the PPP has saved an estimated 51 million jobs and helped to prevent a significant rise in unemployment during the pandemic.

根據SBA最近的一份報告，PPP估計有5100萬個就業機會，並有助於防止大流行期間的失業率大幅增長。

The report also found that the PPP has had a positive impact on the economy, boosting economic activity and preventing a deeper recession.

該報告還發現，PPP對經濟產生了積極的影響，促進經濟活動並防止更深層衰退。

Despite the program’s success in providing critical financial support to small businesses during an unprecedented crisis, it has also been the subject of some criticism.

儘管該計劃在史無前例的危機期間成功地為小型企業提供關鍵的財政支持，但它也是一些批評的主題。

Some critics have argued that the program is too expensive and that it could lead to an increase in the national debt. Others have claimed that the program is not reaching the small businesses that need it most and that it is being abused by large businesses.

一些批評家認為該計劃太昂貴了，可能導致國債增加。其他人則聲稱該計劃沒有達到最需要它的小型企業，並且被大型企業濫用。

However, supporters of the PPP maintain that the program is a vital lifeline for small businesses that are struggling to survive during the pandemic. They also note that the program has been remarkably efficient, with the SBA processing loans quickly and effectively.

但是，PPP的支持者堅持認為，該計劃對於在大流行期間努力生存的小型企業來說是至關重要的生命線。他們還指出，該計劃非常有效，SBA處理貸款迅速有效。

As the U.S. economy begins to recover from the pandemic, the future of the Paycheck Protection Program remains uncertain. It is possible that Congress could choose to extend the program again if the economic recovery stalls or if another crisis arises. Alternatively, Congress could decide to wind down the program as the economy recovers and small businesses no longer require the same level of financial support. Ultimately, the fate of the Paycheck Protection Program will depend on the political climate in Washington, D.C., and the economic conditions at the time.

隨著美國經濟開始從大流行中恢復，薪水保護計劃的未來仍然不確定。如果經濟復甦攤位或發生另一場危機，國會可能會選擇再次擴展該計劃。另外，國會可以決定隨著經濟恢復，小型企業不再需要相同水平的財政支持。最終，薪水保護計劃的命運將取決於華盛頓特區的政治氣候以及當時的經濟狀況。
