The only Bill I know that helped the economy/country in the 90's was Bill Gates. With the emergence of his company’s products, firms and businesses needed fewer employees to complete more work, hence greater efficiency, greater growth.
The Bill you refer to was a veto power figure-head. Two social programs that were passed in the first two years of his reign were started by Leaders named Ronald and George H.
As far as a budget surplus verses deficits, imagine you are one of three siblings, and your parents gave you a weekly allowance of 30 dollars to be shared by you and your sibs, with one restriction:
All 3 of you have to agree on everything you purchase. If anyone of you says no.....you don't get to spend it...bingo....budget surplus!
No one has stopped the national debt…..

Good point. If anybody here thinks that in the fall of 1992 the economy said to itself "holy cow! the governor of Arkansas just got elected! I'm going to go on an upward trend like this country has never seen!" They are not really with it.
It had to do with usual up and down economic cycles, helped out tremendously by the dot com boom that proliferated in that era. Captain Kangaroo could have been president, the economy still would have flourished.
And if anybody remembers, the economy was starting a downward trend as Clinton was nearing the end of his term.

Since this is a political "free for all", I'm closing this thread. Everyone has an opinion when it comes to politics and everyone believes their opinion is the only right one. Please refrain from political discussions on here.
