The first thing to know about the so-called "fiscal cliff" is that it's not a cliff—it's a choice.
It's a choice between making the 1% richer at the expense of everyone else, or lifting up 100% of Americans. It's a choice
between American prosperity and European austerity.
In this sharp new video, former Labor Secretary Robert Reich breaks down the fiscal choice in 2 minutes and 30 seconds—with
pictures too. And he gives Democrats the inside scoop on how to fight and win this fiscal showdown for the middle class.
Even if you don't usually watch videos like this, you've got to watch this one. Reich's video on Mitt Romney's
economic plan went viral—half a million people watched and shared it—because it was so illuminating. Share this
one with your friends and family so they understand what's at stake now, and how we can win.
