23. Way to not address the legislation I mentioned. but hey, if you want to talk about numbers
How about the fact that the gap between the rich and the rest of us that opened up to a record breaking chasm, surpassing the gap of the Gilded Age? How about the fact that most of those new jobs weren't well paying manufacturing jobs, but lower paying service sector jobs? How about the fact that we saw the emergence of the working poor, and the working homeless? How about the fact that the number of homeless families rose to record breaking numbers?

Sorry, but while the Clinton era looks rosy in hindsight, if you look past the facade, there was some real rot occurring in our society thanks to Clinton and his policies.
