And then after that if we hit the cliff.
There is another potential big date that you know kind of probe could get a deal and that's after that shifted in New -- now here's a thing.
The deal is important if we come out what a deal that is merely kicked the -- let's do -- any on the rug that's going to be a problem you will see companies postponed sort of a financial activity you can see the market take a hit this is where we start to play with fire even if you hit the cliff.
Which if you think about the -- means automatic budget cuts tax increases we deal with the deficit that's not so great in the short term maybe long term it's good.
But if we don't we postpone stuff the uncertainty can be really -- -- this -- -- as an investor.
-- play all these odds look at these states right before yes right right -- and look at the kick to cancer and air about got to tell you right now bills to.
-- from it's is going to be coming up later on and he's he's going to be saying that he expects -- it down the well then they if you believed that they're gonna kick the can.
Investors have to be very defensive for the next year -- mean this is this is that's that's almost as bad.
Police a short term it's it's just has been short term as you know as -- as -- this clip in the fiscal cliff scenario might be good in the long term think about it.
Is you really get a handle the deficit.
As far as I'm concerned military -- -- I don't live in -- states but that's like Barbie for me.
