“prosperous decade.”

But it wasn’t. It was just one bubble after another bubble. in 2000-2001 Tech Bubble Burst. The Housing Bubble then burst. Clinton refinanced our debt using short term low interest schemes to keep interest payments on the national debt down, only to hurt the markets. The IPO bubble burst as they were bogus and raped many of their money.

Sorry, but using bubbles as a measure of prosperity is insane. That’s like taking out a $50,000 credit card, spending like mad then claiming you made all kinds of money somehow.
