The Votes Are In: Now What?
07 November, 2012 | (01 hr)
Will the November 6 elections break the gridlock and fix our ‘broken’ government? Will politicians do the unthinkable and allow the U.S. economy to drive off the fiscal year-end cliff, which consists of $560 billion in tax increases and spending cuts? Over the course of the next decade, politicians must decide on over $8 trillion worth of tax and spending initiatives. In light of the election results, what policy actions and direction on taxes, federal spending and general economic issues are likely to be taken over in the near, medium, and longer term?
Audience: C-suite strategists, economists, other business decision-makers
