These are Republican ideas and the reason were in the economic mess we're in today. I'm not going to go through the list and debunk every line, but some of it was done (cops on the streets) and some of it was part of block grants that were implemented at the state level which was also a Republican idea and DID NOT WORK which is another reason we're in the mess we're in today. Windows and Y2K, and Al Gore insisting on investing in the internet. Bill Clinton had NOTHING to do with the economy of the 90's.
