Humor with a Point

The Top 10 requirements for a successful Clinton Economy are:

10)	Find enough people willing to flush millions into a “New Economy.”

9)	Obtain CEO’s willing to risk prison over hyping their stock so substantial capital gains tax revenues will magically appear.

8)	Convince people it is good to pay high salaries even though there is no profit.

7)	In spite of world dangers, cut defense spending and call it “Pay-Go.”

6)	Hope your timing is right to leave office before the downturn.

5)	Consider loss carry-forwards “a tax-break for the rich.”

4)	Make politicians exempt from prosecution for statements that will send a CEO to jail.

3)	Support hundreds of attorneys for election to congress because there is less chance of discovery.

2)	In the final days of the administration have the CBO issue a 190 page budget projection because the press will not read beyond the second sentence.

1)	Hope Sarbanes-Oxley passes so there will be no auditors with available time to determine what happened.
