We need to go over the cliff. The cliff is the cure.
But jumping off this “cliff” is only supposed to cut the deficit by $1.2 trillion over 10 years. It saves about $120 billion a year. The deficit is $1.4 trillion EVERY year. And growing.
Avoiding the real cliff is worse than kicking a can down the road. If you kick a can down the road at least when you reach the can it is the same size as it was when you kicked it.
This is more like rolling a snowball up a hill.
