Clinton policies
We worked very hard for years to repair the damage that Ronald Reagan and company had done to America's fisc. We strained every nerve and muscle to find politically-possible and popularly-palatable ways to close the deficit, and put us in a position in which we can at least begin to think about the generational long-run problems of financing the retirement of the baby-boom generation and dealing with the rapidly-rising capabilities and costs of medicine. We saw a potential fiscal train wreck far off in the future, and didn't ignore it, didn't shrug our shoulders, didn't assume that it would be someone else's problem, but rolled up our sleeves and set to work.
And did what? I've never gotten a precise answer to this, and this paragraph doesn't mention anything either.
Exactly which specific Clinton-generated policy was responsible for the great boom of the late 1990s?
There's a school of thought that the reason the economy did so well in the late 1990s was because the President and Congress were occupied with the impeachment flap, and didn't come up with any more dumbass ways to spend money or screw up the private sector.
The comments on the page from liberals are also amusing, since a good half of them complain that the government isn't spending enough money on something or other.
