In Game of Fiscal Chicken, Top Republican in Hot Seat


                Once again the United State is addressing its deficit and this impending “Fiscal Cliff” we are all about to drive off of.  And, once again, John Boehner weeps publicly in an attempt to convince the President and other members of Congress that taxes should not be raised for the upper 2%.  Crying is a strategy many young children use to get their parents to buy them something, but Speaker of the House John Boehner, as he already owns an Xbox, has cultivated this technique and instead applied it to his professional career. As anyone would probably suspect, it is a difficult thing to yell at a grown man crying openly in a crowded room and this threat has been enough to keep President Obama at a distance.  However, as we near this imminent doom the country has to address the issue once again and try to get something done through Boehner’s tears.
                So far, it looks as though Boehner has little support for his Fiscal Cliff solution even from his fellow Republicans.  However, in the event that there will be zero compromises made on the issue, it is safe to assume a complete collapse of our financial system.  The American dollar will become so invaluable that we citizen will adopt the trading of baseball cards as currency.  Oil and gasoline will be worth more than a human life and, well, I assume you've all seen Road Warrior…  For the sake of society as we know it, I hope this Fiscal Cliff argument gets ironed out in time.  But just as a precautionary measure, I advise everyone to stock up on duct tape, gas cans, and leather jackets.
