One example: J.P. Morgan says it will spend $20 billion over five years to raise hourly pay of its workers and open new branches in the U.S., as a direct result of the tax cut.

Did you read this part Jog?

Forum in Davos, Switzerland, there is almost zero mention of the controversies which consume coverage of Trump in America.

Instead, people talk about the real possibility now that growth in the U.S. economy could hit 4 percent this year — a positively Clintonian benchmark. The impact worldwide would be tremendous.

We forget what that kind of economy means. Clinton averaged roughly 4 percent GDP growth. Record budget surpluses. Record job growth. Real household incomes up across the board. A skyrocketing stock market.

Money in peoples’ pockets—for college, for retirement, for vacations. Businesses booming. New ones starting. And the USA once again the engine pulling the world economy.

We’re a long way from that, for sure.

Clinton does it, and its good, Trump ?

How did the "Contract with America" factor into these good economic numbers for Bill, I wonder?

I voted for Slick, but I feel it wasn't until Newt came along and tore Clinton away from the grasp of the Hollywood liberals that he became successful at governing.

I just wish he would have handled Monica better, as well as the conservatives not being such rabid idiots over a mans moral failures.
No telling what, as a nation we could have accomplished if we stayed positive and worked toward a common goal.

Wow.... must be great to be so naive!

Excellent explanation.
Phhht..

Did Clinton cut taxes and go into deficit spending to do it???


And exactly what makes you believe that is what will happen?
The economic activity that we are SEEING should handily compensate.
I addressed this in another thread.
I have not seen a rebuttal
You can keep repeating the talking points, but until you address the argument, you're just parroting the same media who hate everything Trump without actually considering the Actual result of the decrease in taxes.
Jobs,jobs, jobs.
Exports, exports, exports..

How did we GET in the bind we are in?
Spending, wars, Really Bad trade deals
Taxes were used to try to keep us afloat.
Trade deals and taxes Forced corporations and Jobs to leave.
Look what is happening.
JOBS are returning.
If we Build it here
We DON'T IMPORT IT.
We Export it.
If you have to import more than you export, you're gonna go broke.
Why?
Because a Household that Spends More than it Earns will go bankrupt.
It's Obvious Economic Law.

Oh,

Would that be what, ’should’, be done today?

Using the Knowledge from the Past?

You don't know what QE is.
Or you would not say that.
Totally different.
QE was nothing more than the federal reserve selling debt, sometimes, even Buying the debt, because NOBODY was willing to buy it, otherwise.
Do you understand what happens to Create a dollar?
