Durante los dos años de su presidencia, Bill Clinton logró salir del año fiscal con un superávit presupuestario, primero en 1998 y finalmente en 2001. Dejó el cargo con una economía en auge y su país era respetado internacionalmente en un grado que no lo había sido. en décadas. Entonces George W. Bush asumió el poder…
Bush, como todos sabemos ahora, sumió al mundo en el caos. Invadieron Afganistán, invadieron Irak, derrocaron a Saddam Hussein y comenzaron un enorme conflicto regional cuyos resultados todavía sentimos hoy, dos décadas después.
Clinton
Bush
El Islam radical surgió como nunca antes y la “guerra contra el terrorismo” dio origen a un suministro interminable de nuevas células terroristas, grupos radicales y militantes violentos.
Sí, Clinton era un mujeriego. Un amante de la buena vida que fuma cigarros y juega al golf. Pero trabajó brillantemente junto con políticos de todas las tendencias y colores, incluso cuando hicieron todo lo posible por apuñalarlo por la espalda.

From my viewpoint, part of Clinton’s means of ‘balancing the budget” was to drastically cut funding to many important Federal agencies including the Dep. of the Interior. This led to the Forest Service and the BLM not having enough funding to manage public lands which were being used to support industries such as Ranching (open range grazing) and Lumbering (timber sales and auctions). Thus as a byproduct of these agencies’ inability to accommodate the needs of these industries, we now suffer from the death of lumber in the Pacific Northwest, which not only cost thousands of jobs, but forced the influx of more imported timber. It also truncated efforts on the parts of these agencies to maintain forest lands by allowing timber sales of what I like to refer to as ‘fuel forests’; I. e. overgrown and unhealthy forest lands, resulting in massive fuel contributions to fires in most western states. The grazing issues may never be resolved since, ranchers have had to raise only as much herd as can afford to be fed on private land (or pay for feed for larger herds). While I don’t at all condone the takeover of public facilities (in Oregon, for example), I understand the frustration of the Ranchers who should have been granted an audience by the Feds to build public understanding of the plight they suffer. One more thing – NAFTA didn’t work until the Railroads (and trucking companies) got into a bidding war with each other and slowly lowered their transportation rates to remain competitive. Like Magic! All part of the Clinton legacy.

If we had maintained the surpluses for several more years, the nation’s debt could have been significantly paid down.As things currently stand, much of our debt (in the form of treasury bills) is held by foreign actors who could do SERIOUS damage to the US economy by cashing in their trillions of treasuries all at once. This seems much more precarious than slightly smaller GDP growth due to surpluses.

It was the best of times. A glorious time. Amazing. Everybody had a full time productive & rewarding job.
