The fiscal cliff is more accurately called the Austerity Bomb.

Austerity during tough economic times has been shown, time and again, to be a recipe for disaster. When you can borrow at 0% interest with the express purpose of stimulating the economy, fucking do it. It's not something you want to do forever, but going austerity right now would be an utter disaster.
