The Politicians are still at it. The mopes have nothing better to do than continue the same childish games as before the recent election. They have again taken to the airwaves to rehash the same garbage as before. The apparent hope was to install Mr. Romney as a puppet President and continue business as usual. This is not and probably never has been about whats best for the country but what is best for their big money donors. Each of these folks are near or in the top 2 percent who would pay higher taxes. It appears that they are not willing to sacrifice for their constituents but would have  us  believe they are in it for us. The wide-spread  negative ads that took over the airwaves during the election were  paid for by the big money Dupublican backers and they will continue to control the Congress in any way they can. This fiscal cliff is solvable with simple changes in what is required and who will be affected. The Congress has all of the information required to get this done but they keep fudging and hoping they do not have to take action. The people affected are not as many small businesses as the GOP would have us believe but more the people who employ no one but bring home the big bucks yet are too greedy to pay their fair share of taxes. We need to  ignore the media blurbs as they are primarily distortions of the truth. The deadline that is set means exactly what it is: a deadline but it is reversible even after the deadline. We have 535 people serving us who have no agenda other than their own and we (the People) need to fix it. It is certainly true that there are some folks who still have some ideals but the apple barrel still has a lot of rotten ones in it. If the President of the United States is willing to pay his fair share then why not the Congress and their cronies? Congress needs to consider that the people no longer trusts them and in some case does not like them.
