The document discusses the potential economic impact of going over the "fiscal cliff" at the end of 2012. It describes the fiscal cliff as a combination of deep spending cuts and tax increases that could suck billions of dollars out of the US economy and tip it back into recession. There is concern that Congress will be unable to reach an agreement to avoid going over the cliff. Allowing the current policies to take effect could cut the deficit in half but risk another economic crisis. Alternatively, canceling the tax increases and spending cuts would add to the deficit. The outcomes are uncertain and could range from mild economic impact to potentially triggering a global economic collapse similar to the Great Depression.

A strong state of the union will require a strong approach to addressing high and rising national debt. Instead of ignoring the problem, our leaders must confront the situation and find ways to finance the future responsibly. Hereโs a look at the State of the Debt.

For many middle-class families, the American Dream can feel as though it's slipping away. For others, it can seem lost for good.
Consider Terry and Tony Neumann and Claude and Jackie Stanley -- the two Milwaukee couples featured in an episode of FRONTLINE, Two American Families.
In 1992, both Tony and Claude had recently lost their manufacturing jobs. For the next 20 years, our cameras followed them and their families as they struggled to avoid poverty. When they could find work, it was often for longer hours, less pay and no benefits. Bills piled up, tensions rose and relationships became strained.
Of course, their story is far from unique. Over the last several decades, the middle class has struggled to keep pace with smaller paychecks, mounting debt and shrinking opportunities for steady work. The following eight charts offer a brief snapshot.

As late as 1992, the United States was running budget deficits of ne.pdfarihantmum
ย
As late as 1992, the United States was running budget deficits of nearly $300 billion. During the
remainder of the 1990\'s, deficits declined and became surpluses. As the new century began,
these surpluses again turned into deficits. โขExplain the decline in deficits and subsequent
surpluses in the late 1990\'s. โขExplain the return to deficit spending since the turn of the century.
โขConsider the causes of the deficits and surpluses and provide your own insight as to whether
these surpluses or deficits have a \"positive\" or \"negative\" effect on our economy
Solution
As the 1990s came to an end, virtually all financial-market observers and politicians rejoiced that
budget deficits were gone and that the U.S. had entered a period of fiscal stability. Politicians on
both sides of the aisle viewed the new world of budget surpluses as an opportunity to save Social
Security, to cut Federal debt, and to lower taxes.
Budget deficits or budget surpluses are neither good nor bad, they are fiscal policy options that
can stabilize or de-stabilize an economy. The U.S. economy, under Reagan, Bush, and early
Clinton, experienced higher not lower rates of economic growth at a time when budget deficits
were at record levels and tax rates were on the decline. Over the past 20 years a period of record
budget deficits the stock market increased from 950 to over 11,000, providing ample evidence
that budget deficits are not necessarily bad for an economy.On the other hand, budget surpluses
are not necessarily good. As the budget surpluses began to expand dramatically in late 1999 and
into 2000, the stock market appeared to be reversing the record up-trend of the 1980s and \'90s.
One possible reason for the reversal: the growing budget surplus was sapping the savings of the
private sector. Consumers were able to maintain their spending only through expanding debt to
record level.
In the late 90s, the confluence of strong economic growth, decelerating federal government
spending, and substantial increases in tax rates (revenues) had the unexpected effect of producing
enormous budget surpluses. As unexpected budget surpluses burst on the scene in the late 1990s,
most mainstream economists werenโt sensitive to the contractionary impact that surpluses can
have on the economy. The reason was simple that none of their economic models ever included
the forecast of a substantial surplus.
Ronald Reaganโs was the vice president of the USA for eight years and knew firsthand how
difficult it was to bring the federal budget deficit down from 6 percent of GDP in 1983 to 2.8
percent in Reaganโs last budget. Bush knew that the many budget deals of the 1980s had been
hard fought and always involved higher taxes as part of the deficit reduction, Reagan signed into
law 11 major tax increases that raised taxes by $133 billion in 1988 or 2.7 percent of GDP.Bush
administration economists believed that an easier monetary policy was the key to stimulating
growth. But Federal Reserve Board.

Great Depression of the American Economy
Great Depressionย was an austerely down trend in the economic activity of the world in the decade foregoing World War II. ย The time duration or rather the time for the Great Depression Was not fixed. It varied from countries to countries. However, in many countries it was experienced in the year 1930 and it lasted till the midst of 1940. The time duration for the Great Depression was for a longer period of time and it was considered the longest as well as the deepest depression of the twentieth century
The beginning point of the Depression was the fall or the crash in the stock market in U.S. The fall in the prices of stock began in the year 1929 on 4th September and the stock market crashed on the 29th of October in the year 1929. This day was known as the Black Tuesday.ย
The Great Depression affected severely all the sections and the class of the society in the countries including the rich and the poor. Profit Margin and the prices of the goods and services severely dropped and if the amount of revenue and taxes collected also had a devastating fall which had severe negative effect on the economy. The level of Unemployment rose in U.S. and it was depicted that around twenty percent of unemployment rate increased in U.S. whereas, in other countries the level of Unemployment rose to thirty three percent which was the highest ever increase in the rate of the unemployment process.
All the cities around the world were suffering due to this depression and especially those cities or countries whose backbone was heavy industry, construction industries because this industry totally turned downed and halted in various countries. Due to the depression the agriculture sector was also effected as because the prices of the crop also fell to around sixty percent.
Due to unemployment the primary sector was also affected, activities such as mining, logging and cash cropping was effected a lot. ย
There were various causes for the depression in the year 1929. These comprised of the primary weaknesses and definite events that led to a major depression and the way in which the severe depression profused from country to country was simply devastating. According to the historians the main cause or the real reason behind the great depression was failure of the bank and the crash or the fall of the stock market. However, the various monetarist economist such as Milton Friedman, Peter Temin and Barry Eichengreen states that the major cause behind the depression was the inappropriate action considered or adopted by the US Federal Reserve and the limited supply of the money and the decision of Britain for returning of gold standard before the World War.
The activity of business and the period of Boom and depression in the business and recession are considered or rather regarded as the normal activity for the business and are considered normal. However, what are t.

lot less than the bankers had previously imagined.
Nobody knew how big the losses were or how great the exposure of individual banks
actually was, so trust evaporated overnight and banks stopped doing business with each
other.
It took a year for the financial crisis to come to a head but it did so on 15 September
2008 when the US government allowed the investment bank Lehman Brothers to go
bankrupt. Up to that point, it had been assumed that governments would always step in
to bail out any bank that got into serious trouble: the US had done so by finding a buyer
for Bear Stearns while the UK had nationalised Northern Rock.
When Lehman Brothers went down, the notion that all banks were "too big to fail" no
longer held true, with the result that every bank was deemed to be risky. Within a
month, the threat of a domino effect through the global financial system forced western
governments to inject vast sums of capital into their banks to prevent them collapsing.
The banks were rescued in the nick of time, but it was too late to prevent the global
economy from going into freefall. Credit flows to the private sector were choked off at
the same time as consumer and business confidence collapsed. All this came a.

The Fiscal Cliff: Why Does It Matter? | Richard Tan Success Resources
1. THE FISCAL CLIFF:
WHY DOES IT
MATTER
Whatโs The Worst That Can Happen
When The U.S. Goes Of The Fiscal
Cliff?
2. The initial upbeat reaction
in Asia to Obamaโs
election victory was
swiftly replaced by market
anxiety as the focus turns
to the โfiscal cliff,โ a so-
called set of measures
scheduled to take place to
rein in the US budget at
the end of the year.
3. The combination of deep
spending cuts and huge
tax hikes was the result of
a protracted but possibly
reckless compromise
agreed upon last year
between Democrats and
Republicans in order to
raise the countryโs debt
ceiling.
4. Investors now fear a
post-election and still
deeply divided Congress
will not be able to reach
an agreement to avoid
this fiscal cliff by the
end of the year.
5. While the package
would reduce the
countryโs huge fiscal
deficit, it would also
suck billions of
dollars out of the
worldโs biggest
economy.
6. The United Statesโ
slow recovery from the
financial crisis could
be reversed and the
economy tip back into
recession, which
would in turn deal a
major blow to the
global economy.
7. Whatโs the worst that can happen?
We can get a clue from the last time a
similar scenario happened โ the Great
Depression. If it happened today, it would
look like this:
โข Banks would collapse under the debt
correction
โข Peopleโs savings would be wiped out
โข ATM machines would not work
8. โข People would lose their jobs
โข The government would have no money
to support them
โข There would be no subsidies for medical
treatment
โข There would be super high inflation and
no one would be able to afford to buy
food
โข It could lead to the next World War just
like the Great Depression in the 30โฒs led
to World War II.
9. Even if the worst-case-scenario is averted,
none of the possible solutions faced by U.S.
lawmakers are particularly attractive:
1. They can do nothing and let the current
policy go into effect. The plus side: the
deficit, as a percentage of GDP, would be
cut in half.
10. 2. They can cancel some or all of the
scheduled tax increases and spending cuts,
which would add to the deficit and increase
the odds that the United States could face a
crisis similar to that which is occurring in
Europe. The flip side of this, of course, is
that the U.S. debt will continue to grow.
3. They could take a middle course, opting
for an approach that would address the
budget issues to a limited extent, but that
would have a more modest impact on
growth.
11. All it sounds like is
postponing the
inevitable โ the
eventual collapse of
the global economy.
The U.S. government
has been talking about
this โcatastropheโ like
something that is
โsuddenly upon us.โ
13. Theyโre even saying
the global economy
has already gone off
the cliff and weโre all
in financial free fall.
The real question is,
how are you going to
land?
14. Will you find yourself
in the best โlanding
positionโ to take
advantage of what may
perhaps be the
greatest wealth
transfer in history, or
will you be caught
flatfooted and
financially paralyzed
from the fall?
