I agree with Pento's logic on sovereign bond yields at or near record lows due to the bond markets forecasting anemic economic growth. But I disagree with his mainstream idea that the later stages of Clinton's presidency yielding budget surpluses. Yes, the economy was growing, but the US government still ran deficits--and surpluses were only possible due to accounting and the pilfering of social security. In other words, if the US were truly running surpluses during the 1998-2001 years, the national debt would not have increased during those years. Yet, it did.
I will provide details on Clinton's alleged budget surpluses in the next blog.
