    But then the media hype machine has to find some other crisis they can make up to keep viewers.

    :cornut: Well Y2K didn't kill us.
    21 Dec 12 didn't kill us.
    So the 'Fiscal Cliff' won't kill us either.:Thumbsup:

    If we go over the cliff and I have less money?
    If I see blue lights I will conserve my brakes and push harder on the GAS PEDDEL. :arf:
    That should save me some Money.

    Blue lights behind me means I'm winning. Right?

    Non Mini-ites see it as a "Full Stop" . . . Mini-ites only see this as a "Slow n Go" . . . It's all the way the road looks from behind the wheel ~ Survival of the Fittest

    I guess I could use my own damned espresso machine instead of visiting the Bucks every now and then...

    Going to be tough!

    Won't really effect me directly. Except my business may slow down, the gas price will go up, food will go up, energy will go up, clothing will go up... When the taxes increase on others but not you they still effect you because they get passed on in higher prices or lack of income.:cryin:

    Not gonna change a thing. The higher taxes spread out over a year will be barely noticeable.

    Fiscal speed bump might be a better name.

    Moved this to Politics and other "Messy" Stuff since I keep Google and other search engines out of this area cause it is really not that MINI relevant in the grande scheme of this site.
