I really am tired of hearing Leftist commentators and Democrats say the economy boomed after President Clinton raised taxes in the 90s – as though the tax increases caused it – or at least permitted it.
The economy boomed during Clinton’s presidency because of the unprecedented breakthroughs and marketing of new technologies – computers, cell phones, dotcom businesses and communications, Y2K programming and software purchases, and unparalleled free-trade with its flood of cheap, affordable products.
In addition, the Clinton boom followed the Reagan Revolution, the Republican takeover of Congress, and Gingrich’s “Contract with America” – with its related spending cuts and welfare rationalization.
The facts are, higher taxes take money out of the hands of consumers and businesses and reduce their spending and investing. Similarly, an entitlement oriented government – spending more than it can afford – will only inhibit economic growth and job creation.
Obama’s notion that a recovery will be driven from the bottom up is naïve, unproven, and illogical. Without a significant change in his economic, no-growth, entitlement strategy, America is in for four more years of stagnation at best. This is most unfortunate because rapid growth is the only thing that can save the American-Way . . . The American Prosperity Machine.
The slow growth, Obama alternative is higher taxes, more debt and deficits, more borrowing, more printed money, higher inflation, authoritarian centralized government control, and de facto bankruptcy.
"Doug Giles and his team over at ClashDaily.com cut through the crap to expose what have become modern day human slaughter houses: gun free zones. Their candid arguments about allowing teachers to protect themselves and the students in their care through concealed carry should be taken seriously. As a result maybe, just maybe, we’ll be able to save some lives someday rather than call the cops to report the body count." - Katie Pavlich.

"There were many lessons to draw from the horrific Newtown, CT school shooting. Unfortunately, most of the media and political Left came up with the wrong ones. But not Doug Giles and his writers over at ClashDaily.com. In the wake of this horror, they offered a robust defense of American citizens' right to bear arms and common sense answers to societal violence. The Sandy Hook Massacre: When Seconds Count, the Police are Minutes Away is a great resource for those interested in this vital, Constitutional issue." - S.E. Cupp, MSNBC Host and The Blaze Contributor
