Fiscal Cliff Kind of Averted!
Merry Fiscal Cliff(mas)! (via Red Green & Blue)
Hooray (kind of)!!! The so-called “fiscal cliff” has been averted (for now). A deal was reached at the very last minute, and, to save us all from their own manufactured crisis, Democrats and Republicans came together in peace and harmony (HAHAHAHAHAHA!) and voted to increase taxes on the richest…

Tax Cuts for the Rich: Republican Argument Falls Apart
SHOCKING NEWS: Tax Cuts for the Wealthy Only Help the Wealthy (via The Inspired Economist)
