Ask about the “fiscal cliff” and people randomly interviewed on Thursday didn’t talk party politics or slam the actions of President Barack Obama or House Speaker John Boehner. Instead, they talked about the impact on their bank accounts and fears in the country’s overall economy if New Year’s Day comes and goes without Congress agreeing on a wide-ranging set of tax and spending issues. Politicians “are playing a very dangerous game of chicken and I think the American people blame both parties,” said Barclay Rushton, a partner with Rushton & Co. in Gainesville.
