A keen eye of the EU Commission

The Comission announced today that it issued formal "Excessive Deficit Procedures" against a number of EU countries that overpassed the 3% limit (namely Spain, France and Ireland). This may be understood as a signal that the Commission will keep a keen eye on this issue, despite the deflactionary pressures and the mounting crisis. Still, some caution should be used on this procedures - after all, some public investment might be benefic to counterattack this crisis.
