Given the NASDAQ meltdown and the resulting stock market performance, capital gains tax receipts were much lower during the decade. It has very little to do with the lowering of tax rates.
Clinton’s deficit into surplus had everything to do with the markets dot com blowoff, and very little to do with raising tax rates.
If I recall correctly, the dot-bomb cost the economy $5 trillion while 9/11 cost another $2 trillion. Hard to make up for those numbers.
