You don't just get given money by banks/bonds issuers/Investment Capitalists, you have to show them your short, medium, and long term plans, and how you are willing and able to adjust them if downturns and upturns happen - they don't give you it all at once, it is issued in tranches, and only if they believe they will get a return on it. If they think the economy is on a downturn, they won't loan you the money, or will ask for more in repayments.

If they think they will get more of a return on their investment from a country with a stronger economy, they'll invest there, not here.

It's not like a bank loan, it's a lot more complicated than that.
