Shining a little reality light on the otherwise pollyanna-like dearth of pragmatism that is the mainstream media’s guest-list, Ron Paul provided Bloomberg TV’s Trish Regan a little more than we suspect she bargained for when asked if he had any hope that we avoid the fiscal cliff. The constant “delaying-of-the-inevitable” enables our politicians to avoid facing up to the serious consequences of our reality and as Representative Paul notes the chances of a grand bargain are “probably zero… that’s why I think we’re over the cliff [already].” Just like the handling of the debt ceiling debacle, Paul notes they will “pretend they are going to do it” until we get a total crash of the dollar and the entire financial system (which he notes is what will occur if we continue the status quo). “We are at a point of no return” unless certain things change, since “we are not the productive nation we used to be.”
