Wow, it is amazing how quick national focus shifts away from school shootings back to the fiscal cliff. All the fiscal cliff consists of is decisions. It is really hard for our leaders to make decisions when there is not an immediate payoff to them personally. People’s perspective on different issues is highly influenced by drama. There is one widespread phony notion where the fiscal cliff is concerned. A cut in government spending will not cause a recession. A recession is due to begin regardless because the nation’s resources have become grossly misallocated due to central economic planning and the rigging of markets with legislation. Gun advocates can relax. The antigun movement is fickle. Once the drama is gone the antigun fervor will die down. It always does.
