Republican debt limit negotiator Graves says No additional meetings have been scheduled | Forexlive

Graves:

• No additional meetings have been scheduled
• Substantial gaps remain
• There is progress on some issues

Don’t get sucked into ‘progress on some issues’. The easy stuff is, well easy. Yeah, there will be progress/agreement on these.

It’s the hard stuff that is (are) the sticking point(s), hence, ‘substantial gaps remain’. This is obvious stuff. Its like when you are buying a new car and you ask for free mats and the sales guy/gal says ‘yeah sure’ …. this is easy. But when you ask for the car half price that’s a ‘substantial gap’ and that’s a sticking point and not easy to resolve.
