Leo Gerard, Campaign for America s Future: Eighty CEOs have ponied up $37 million to make sure the so-called fiscal cliff problem is resolved their way. President Obama is right to take that advice and refuse to pay the ransom Republicans are demanding to appease the entitled rich.

6 Reasons the Fiscal Cliff is a Scam

By James K. Galbraith


The fiscal cliff is a device constructed to force a rollback of Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, as the price of avoiding tax increases and disruptive cuts in federal civilian programs and in the military.
