COMMENTARY | There are concerns about a recession in America. Everything from gas prices to spending cuts to hurricanes are being blamed for the arrival of trucks. But the real culprit could be these political games played by supporters on both sides of the political spectrum.
You could blame the oil market, but negative growth was happening before the price spike. You could believe it until Hurricane Sandy, but only one area. You could also point the finger at the private sector, but it grew 2.5 percent in the fourth quarter, which was too bad.
Picture a scene from the 1950s. Two cars are facing each other across a field the length of a football stadium. After the recall the two heads straight towards each other. There are four events. In two, one car to the side, the other deflects directly in front. He who declines is defeated, or a chicken.
At times, both drivers lose their nerve and turn away, earning snickers and whistles from onlookers. But all too often, the car is driven in a straight line, brought to a collision at high speed to the saying “a live chicken is better than a dead duck”. However, both political parties seem to despise that philosophy.
Reports indicated that the public sector had declined, dragging down the economy. It is necessary that they are inactive principle workers. Since then, the “debt ceiling debate” has been negotiated to an endless series of “fiscal traps” and “sequestrations” and monthly imbalances that not only lead to the instability of the government budget, but also harms the private sector working with the government. And it comes from a sports fan who is accustomed to those “chicken games” and “57 Chevys.”
Government contractors and business business plan which is designed to provide annual Three months unevenly create a kind of instability that makes certain projects to be pursued, which decline to the public sector. And both parties acting on each other, trying to make the other party decline, could lead to a full-blown collision in the form of a recession.
