re: #100 engineer dog
if the economy was ‘rebounding’ in the naughts, i missed it
growth was anemic from 2000 - 2008. and then something else happened
2002-2008 was the year range we were talking about, but yes, the economy grew because of tax cuts. I think the worst of the 2000 bust was never allowed to happen by policies that quickly created a newer, bigger, and more costly bubble.
