Your mind is probably very confused at the moment, as you are thinking, “What could scoliosis possibly have to do with the fiscal cliff?” Well, it is actually a very simple analogy. If politicians in Washington, D.C. do not sort out our nation’s spending and budget, then we will have much pain in our economy. In the same way, if we do not take care of our scoliosis and take necessary measures to keep our spine straight, then we will also have pain in our back. It is far better to manage your economic situation and your scoliotic situation now rather than procrastinating and making it worse later.
