How odd then that no such surpluses have been generated under the "robust" Bush economy, what with both inflation and unemployment at comparable lows (your statements right?) and the DJI and S&P indices hitting record highs.

You really must not be paying attention- very scary since this IS an investing site

The indexes have been basically treading water. Compare that to the meteoric rise in the Naz due to the liquidity fueled internet/dotcom bubble

Now you're going to deny that that bubble actually occurred? Or that it was the capital gains from those profits that were the sole reason that Clinton had a surplus during his time in office

The Q's topped out at around 120 in 2000- it's around 53 now
