Cliff Diving

There is a good chance, I think about 159% that the government is going to go off the so called "fiscal cliff."

This is a combination of taxes going up from things like the Bush tax cuts expiring, the payroll tax holiday expiring, etc.

Then there's automatic spending cuts. Cuts so draconian and across the board  that we figured the government would do all that was necessary to stop this from happening.

Nope. The congress, republicans mostly (let's call a spade a spade. They are the party of "Hell, fucking, no way, fucking shit NO!) and democrats can't get their shit together.

So fuck them, they fucked all of us by being so entrenched in their ideologies that they can't do what is right for the country. Though most of the blame is on the Republicans and their batshit crazy inbred offspring, the Tea party. They don't know how to say yes to a President they hate. Hate for being black and hate for being Democrat.

I'm glad the Bush tax cuts end. Bush was an idiot for cutting taxes while starting 2 wars. No president of any party was ever that fucking stupid before. They needed to end 2 years ago. This time they will end to some degree. People who can afford to pay taxes will pay a little over 3% more. Though the really smart rich have already gamed the system and worked out how to pay low taxes. If they haven't they need to fire their tax people.  Just saying...

The stock markets are going to flip out January 2nd.

I'm worried about the farm bill expiring and milk going up to $6-8 a gallon.

Congress. Do your fucking job. You were sent to govern, not sit on your asses and get great healthcare and a pension for the rest of your life. Oh wait, that's why you wanted the job in the first place. You want to serve yourself, not the country. How foolish of me...
