Happy New Year!

I have no worries about the fiscal cliff. No way it will happen for more than a day or two. All this arguing and posturing is just political gamesmanship. And no, it is NOT just the Republicans who won't budge.
Face it, Obama wanted $1.3 trillion in new taxes and $900 billion in cuts. Boehner agreed to $1 trillion in new taxes, and $1 trillion in cuts, but that was unacceptable to Obama! That is not in any way shape or form horse trading.

Ah well, we are going to be slammed with taxes anyway for Obamacare. Let's hope when we finally start seeing it in action it will be worth it. But that will be a topic for 2014.

For now, here's hoping that 2013 is better than some of us expect, and as good as many of us hope.

Happy New Year to you, your families, and your friends.
