Keep in mind we have committed to doing stupid things and the debate is how cruel, counter-productive, and stupid we will be.

About good as it gets circumstantially? Maybe, but bad is automatic. I think the cliff would have gone a long way toward governmental and fiscal sanity over the long term but we punted a bit so we'll have to see what shakes out over the next scam or two to figure out how bad or not bad we came out.
