Questions on "CHANGE"....

[JustinStrife]

Very biased post. As a human being, and as a computer scientist who studied human brain and its basic structural behaviors, I see a pattern on this car forum. Almost all of the administrators and moderators are conservative republicans.

The question is why?

The majority of people on the corvetteforum that I belong to are conservative republicans. Easily 80-85%. I wonder why that is?

To attribute the Clinton-era economic expansion to the dot-com boom is wildly inaccurate.

There was broad-based growth across nearly all segments throughout the nation, a decrease in the annual federal deficit, across the board wage increases, et cetera.

The dot-com boom and subsequent crash really didn't have a whole lot to do with anything the Clinton administration did. It was also not a significant enough phenomenon on it's own to have created such a broad-based economic revival as was experienced.

Bob Rubin was and is a very smart guy. That's why the "Clinton Boom" happened.

There's some truth to that. Technology IS why the Clinton area saw economic growth, but it wasn't just the internet. All forms of data storage, communications, and automation conspired to increased productivity.

Much of this technological revolution started in the late 70s and especially the 80s.
