Politics and the boom
Article Abstract:
The US economy has enjoyed a long period of growth which started in 1991. President Bill Clinton took office in 1993, after the recovery had begun. Deregulation and tax reforms helped to foster the recovery, and they were carried out under the Reagan administration. The development of a budget surplus also began before Clinton took over. His main achievement has been not to intervene in ways that could dereail the recovery, and thisis also true of Federal Reserve policy.
