People keep saying that he wasn't doing much, and that it was the rapid technological boom that brought up the economy. While this is true without a doubt, how much of it is true is my question. He must've have some impact on the economy for example, his support of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).

  1. Bill Clinton Took all the money in the social security trust fund and balanced his budgets . Nice guy ?


  2. He raised taxes, but reduced spending, having the consequence that money was taken out of inefficient governmental hands and dumped into the bond market, which is more efficient, in the form of cash redemptions.  This forced private investors to seek private investments and not government.  NAFTA had a small, but clearly positive impact on US wages and employment.
