Fiscal Cliff Diving

Yes, it’s fiscal cliff diving! That’s what happens when our esteemed government representatives refuse to compromise on a deal to avoid the fiscal cliff, and the economy takes a dive! Yes, and so does your income, your investments, your mood, our economic outlook, our GDP, our faith in government, etc.: They all dive off the fiscal cliff! Isn’t it exciting?

Well, if they’re going to take us fiscal cliff diving, I think our government officials should at least have to wear Speedos. And maybe we can stuff all the money we’re going to lose into their waistbands, like they’re strippers or something. At least that would be hilarious and entertaining. (Hey, if we’re going to lose a lot, shouldn’t we get something in return?)
