The House and Senate returned last week after a one week recess for Thanksgiving. Once again, negotiations over the fiscal cliff consumed most of Washington’s energy though there was no action on the floor on the issue.

Washington lawmakers are fully engaged in discussions about how to deal with the fiscal cliff. Do you think lawmakers will reach an agreement about how to deal with the cliff?

Thanksgiving is a time to reflect upon what each of us are thankful for. We at Bankrupting America are thankful to live and work in a nation that provides the essential freedoms and rights that make our daily lives what they are.

As we spend time with loved ones on Thanksgiving, it’s understandable that things like government spending aren’t at the front of the mind. But, unfortunately, the impact of out-of-control spending doesn’t take a day off.

The holiday season is upon us once again. Time for those lovely family gatherings where your crazy uncle has one too many and becomes convinced that deficit spending will get us out of the recession. You know he’s wrong, but do you have the facts?
