Let's Get Fiscal!

Yes, as you may have heard, America is heading for a. . .

FISCAL CLIFF

Which sounds pretty scary. . . Personally, I'd prefer Fiscal Slope or Fiscal Hill, as they are much less scary.  At least it isn't Fiscal Abyss. 

Back on topic, the Fiscal Cliff is a methaphorical cliff where if our government doesn't reach a deal about 'something' (I'm not what it is, but I'm sure it doesn't matter) then there will be a ton of spending cuts and tax increases, which will probably lead us into another recession. 

Now, of course, we could easily avoid the Fiscal Cliff, just as long as Democrats and Republicans are able to reach a compromise. . .

In other words, we're doomed.  These guys couldn't agree on what color the sky is.  It will be a miracle if these two parties actually cooperate. 

Though, some people are saying that this Fiscal Cliff isn't really a big deal. . . So let's go with that; sounds a lot less scary.
