.Weekly fiscal cliff.
The (economic) best is a government not changing and reforming things every two years. There is nothing better than a legislation and a government which is not working at all. Focus on token issues instead of real issues. No wars, no tax raises, just nothing.fuzzylunkin1 wrote:QUOTE (fuzzylunkin1 @ Oct 12 2013, 03:32 AM) Don't worry, nothing that happens in America affects the rest of the world
All the U.S. needs to do is to remove the time-fused bombs from their constitution/legislation and everything will be good.
Fold your hands to a rhombus, lean back, do nothing.
Everything is good.

The tragedy is using this "strategy" as a method of governance, which could have extremely serious ramifications down the road. There's no guarantee that they'll compromise. And even if they do compromise, that just legitimizes this strategy, which again will lead to policy and social stagnation. It's extortion. Sure most of the government is still technically "running" but why can't the whole thing just run properly? Also sorry to tell you this but the Executive is also complicit in taking away your rights, not just Congress. "Essential" services like the DEA are still operating.
They're also not just arguing about money, they're arguing over a bill that was passed by Congress, signed into law by the President, validated by the Supreme Court, campaigned on by the President who won the election and is approved by most Americans. That's just not doing a good job, in my book.
Stop trying to act intellectually superior by suggesting that you're above these petty issues. Yes you're really cool because you just don't care.
The government is running properly. It's designed to create conflict between the branches as a means to prevent any one branch from becoming too powerful. I'm not too worried about it.

The economic best is for a governments budgets to be balanced each year, as that frees up capital driving down interest rates.lexaal wrote:QUOTE (lexaal @ Oct 13 2013, 06:09 AM) The (economic) best is a government not changing and reforming things every two years.

Running a deficit helps today and hurts tomorrow. Running a perpetual deficit guarantees slower GDP growth.
