Clinton raised the top marginal tax rate from 31 percent to 39.6 percent. Contrary to the apocalyptic predictions forwarded from the Austrian school, the U.S. economy sustained the longest period of growth in U.S. history from 1992 to 2000. Clinton produced a historical high of 21 million new jobs.
Interest-rates fell by 40 percent, facilitating the greatest housing boom in history; inflation fell to 2.5 percent, halving the average of the previous 12 years; and the largest budget surplus in history, $128 billion, was created despite Reagan’s mammoth deficits.
Just F*** it and do it. Why should future generations have to pay for everyone else's gluttony...
1. Obama has presided over deficit spending of $1.4 and $1.5 trillion. Next year is projected to be $1.3 trillion.
2. Obama has presided over the largest deficit spending in US history
3. The economy under Bush was fine until the democratic congress gained control.
4. Congress controls spending. They can "defund" any project or agenda of the POTUS.
5. The collective deficits of Obama over the four years of his presidency will dwarf that of Bush during his eight years.
Bush & Blackwater got us into these expensive as$ wars. They looted us for 7 years and still looting us as we speak and you're talking about OB overspending??? The war has cost over $1+ Trillion to date with nothing to show for it...except for higher oil prices, bigger profits at Haliburton & Raytheon and all the other military industrial complex companies. Now what? Go watch zeitgeist and learn a thing or two!

Typical looney left rant.
The wars are not Bush's wars, they are America's wars.
THE DEMOCRATS VOTED IN FAVOR OF THE ACTIONS IN IRAQ AND AFGAN.
THE DEMOCRATS VOTED FOR ALL THE MONEY SPENT IN IRAQ AND AFGAN.
Ask the Iraqi people if THEY think it was "worth" it.
Ask them if they want the "Butcher of Bagdad" back.
Are you talking about the Haliburton that Clinton awarded a no bid contract to?
Many businesses do well during extreme times.
Ask any body and fender shop when they have the most business. It is after bad weather.
Ask a glass company. They do a great business before and after big storms.
It only makes sense that those that provide goods and services to the military will do better during times of war.
Your hatred for anything Bush has clouded your reasoning.

That's fine, but make sure you also revert the Bush tax cuts on the lower brackets, cut the dependent children tax credit in half, and reinstate the marriage penalty too.

After all, these were part of Bush's tax cut.
All tax cuts remain for everybody making under $250,000...

Are we a socialist collective now? Does my getting to keep more of the money I earn depend upon how well it stimulates the economy?
Government spends too much money, get them to stop it, before you decide i need to lose more of my wealth.
BTW, the democrats owned huge majorities in both houses of congress during Reagan, always look to blame the congress for spending us into deficits.

Nah, I dislike the class warfare stuff.
This is an issue where folks should either keep the cuts or get rid of them, none of this "I'll keep mine, but you lose your benefit" stuff.
Just junk the whole thing.
