Yikes. It makes Clinton look good. Compared to Obama, I bet we all wish Bill was back.
Clinton cut a lot out of defense spending riding on the peace dividend from the Reagan/GHW Bush years.
He was also restrained on welfare spending by a Republican congress for 6 of his 8 years IIRC.
Personally I see big inflation ahead. I pulled out 80% of my house equity @ 5% fixed for 30 yrs.
