Actuallly, it was George H.W. Bush who started to
slowly reverse the deficit, although it involved the political suicide of breaking his 'No New Taxes' pledge. Oh well, no good deed goes unpunished.
Then, as Guiliano said, it took Clinton to really go after it his 'Tax & Spend' liberalism, to lead us into the nation's greatest ever economy, despite increasing some taxes.
Versus, say, Dubya, whose economy still sputters to life under a crushing deficit.
Despite cutting taxes. Ironical, huh!
