Please get a clue before making assertions. Clinton economic growth was not a bubble, it was sustained growth. Tax hikes are what balanced the budgets and lead to the economic growth. That article explains it very well.
Again, results speak for themselves. If you chose to remain stuck on stupid in the face of results, that is of course a choice that living in a free country affords you.
ROFL, Clinton was in the right place at the right time. He did almost nothing to spur economic growth, other than breath air. You bandy about jobs, but don't provide any context, which is a nice way of spinning crap.
You still have failed to show how what he did translated directly into growth. Growth is provided by investment, investment is driven by opportunity, opportunity is driven by innovation, innovation is driven by advancement in technology, investment in technology has very little to do with Presidents.
The economy isn't controlled by Presidents. The Fed chairman has multiples more influence. I know economics quite well, I get paid to.
