Conservation or Big Beautiful Ballrooms?

That's cool for the next few years, but what if you don't like the next President? A better alternative is just put a sticker on it.

The Clinton 90s had the enormous tailwind of the dot com boom.

What a lot of people don't know about Clinton is that he resisted a lot of calls for progressive moves from within his party. The reason Dems have done far less to increase the national debt over the recent decades is because they left the Fed alone and listened to budget advisors. Republicans are still working off the trickle down theory from the Reagan years that has been proven a failure again and again. I suspect most top republicans know it won't work and has never worked but they think (with justification) that they can sell tax cuts to anyone. People who seem to understand that taking less in will wreck their household budget just can't see the same for government.
