You guys are flip flopping non stop from Clinton being fantastic and responsible for the growth in the economy, balancing the budgets, to now him just being a benefactor of the free market economy that you seem so much to hate...
Love to watch Democrats back peddle claiming Clinton wasnt successful because he lowered taxes and the economy grew..
So you also would agree that Obama wasnt responsible for the economy also, right?
Clinton was in office when the internet, as we know it, took off. That's not really his doing.
Obama took actions that prevented a second Great Depression. While Obama isn't "responsible for" America's Economic growth, he was instrumental in saving our economy.
"President Trump's top economic adviser, Gary Cohn, looked out from the stage at a sea of CEOs and top executives in the audience Tuesday for the Wall Street Journal's CEO Council meeting. As Cohn sat comfortably onstage, a Journal editor asked the crowd to raise their hands if their company plans to invest more if the tax reform bill passes.
Very few hands went up.
Cohn looked surprised. “Why aren't the other hands up?†he said."
"A Bank of America-Merrill Lynch survey this summer asked over 300 executives at major U.S. corporations what they would do after a “tax holiday†that would allow them to bring back money held overseas at a low tax rate. The No. 1 response? Pay down debt. The second most popular response was stock buybacks,"

You are literally the only person here who has brought up Bill Clinton. What's happening right now is that CEO's are not going to use this tax cut to invest in jobs.

The economy stopped collapsing and began turning around far before Obama had spent a dime..

Who cares? Its already overseas, why do you object to them bringing it back?
Even if it doesnt create ONE job.. its brought back and then taxed, vs not being brought back..
how many jobs is it creating now being overseas? How much tax revenues is it generating now? ZERO..

LOL you're not even attempting to tell the truth anymore.
when Obama took over in January of 2009 the U.S. economy was in a free-fall
It probably took another year, or two, before the "recovery" took hold at all, and it wasn't until the last few years of his presidency that it really hit its stride.
