President Obama pushed to continue the tax cuts for all but the wealthiest citizens. Congressional Republicans objected to any i

ncrease in taxes and called for deeper cuts in government spending. President Obama and the Speaker of the House, John Boehner, were unable to reach an agreement that would satisfy conservative House Republicans. When these negotiations failed, the Senate Republican leader met with the vice president and crafted a compromise: Only Americans with incomes over $400,000 would face an increase in income taxes. A payroll tax cut for taxes that fund Social Security would be allowed to expire; federal unemployment benefits would be extended; and massive spending cuts would be delayed. This compromise passed both the House and Senate, though most House Republicans refused to support it. On January 2, 2013, President Obama signed the American Taxpayer Relief Act into law. What was the conflict between the president and Congress? Do you think the underlying cause of the conflict was more philosophical or political? In your opinion, which type of conflict would be harder to resolve? What steps were taken to resolve the conflict? Why do you think negotiations between the Senate Republican leader and the vice president were more successful than talks between the president and the Speaker? How might this case study help you understand other presidential-congressional conflicts?

Answer:

To be honest, I think it more political. See, conservatives fought for slavery and lost. (hooray!) Due to this, most conservatives decline the offer because Obama, obviously is a person of color. When to resolve the conflict, it took a large amount of time and effort to convince Republicans and conservatives because well, the president is a democratic person of color, so of course they declined. The senate republican leader and the vice president could sort things out more, due to them kinda being at the same rank. This case can help to understand the discrimination, settlement, agreement, etc.

Explanation:

Sorry if it's not enough!

babunello [35]
This is indicative of an approach-approach conflict.
An approach-approach conflict occurs when an individual is presented with two or more options, all of which are equally appealing. In the case above, Mark is tempted to ask both Helen and Lorelei to a party, and he cannot seem to make a choice because both options are equally tempting.
