Joe,
Cut the cr@p. Clinton took office with a $290 billion deficit, and the before the Republican Congress implemented their first budget in 1996, the deficit was down to $160 billion.
And every budget since then was signed by Clinton. Clinton saved Newt from the last Republican attempt to blow the budget with a big tax cut. If he hadn't of done that, we would be in the red right now.
You really have no idea what you are talking about.
August 15, 1971, was another Sunday that Americans will long remember. That evening President Nixon, against the best advice of his economic counselors, and in total repudiation of his party's campaign platform, took the unprecedented step of imposing wage and price controls upon the United States in the absence of a war emergency. Today, (April 23, 1974) half a dozen freezes and phases and thirty-two months later, the U.S. stands on the brink of decontrol, despite last ditch efforts to extend them on a stand-by basis.
