No he didn't. To achieve his "surplus," he included SS and Medicare tax revenues, just like it's been done for years. uuforum.org Look at that curve (Clinton's in particular) and compare that to republican administrations, then talk about fiscal responsibility. In any case...in the year 2000 the SS surplus was $143B, Medicare came to about $30B, while the surplus was higher than the sum of the two. If bush had maintained Clintons' course, we'd be looking at a shrinking national debt, with the obvious implications on SS and medicare solvency extension...instead we have doubled the national debt. Our interest payments on the debt are going to be well over $400B this year...imagine what we could be doing with that money Al
