So old Billy Clinton was the only president to balance the budget without causing a depression? Interesting.
Its the economy, stupid.
I'd say this is basically just the result of neoliberalism, something Clinton contributed to, but not Clinton alone.
It was very much a bipartisan economic policy that started from Carter, put on overdrive with Reagan, and continued into our economic policies today.
Heh, you can't primarily blame Clinton for the thing that W had 8 years to fix. Have you watched The Big Short?
Oh, no problem then! The AI bubble will carry us through far enough until it all comes crashing down in... I want to say 2027?
Yes... The AI bubble. Which is definitely still a thing. Definitely.
