And I want to you ask something very specific about it which is, he has outlined a much more ambitious role for the government than people thought Democrats could or had the courage to. Your husband famously said when he was president, the era of big government is over.\u00a0 James Carville, who ran his campaign, said what I realized now is when I die I want to come back as the bond market because everybody here is so worried about any spending that would upset the bond market.\u00a0Was that all wrong then or is it that Biden is in a new age?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI really think it\u2019s a new age and in part because what had to happen in the \u201990s did happen,\u201d Clinton replied. \u201cThere was a lot of, you know, positive economic growth that was aided and abetted by government policy and huge amounts of advancement for people up and down the income scale, minorities and others. In the Obama administration, the biggest expansion of health care that could happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut it wasn\u2019t until the pandemic that I think a truly working majority of Americans, crossing party lines as we\u2019ve seen, because of the approval that Republicans and independent voters are giving Biden, suddenly understood in a clear way that, you know what, there\u2019s lots of times when we need the government, and we\u2019ve been exposed as lacking in the kind of investments and support that we, as Americans, should be providing each other with the government as our partner,\u201d she continued.<\/p>\n<p>Clinon enthused, \u201cAnd I\u2019m thrilled that President Biden is taking advantage of this moment to try to push the agenda as far as possible. I think both, you know, Presidents Obama and Clinton did, too, but they were more constrained given what the climate was politically during their administrations.\u00a0So, yes, I think it builds on a lot of what did happen in prior Democratic administrations. But it also goes further. And it can go further because people understand, guess what, you know, we kind of were failed by our government for four years when we confronted one of the worst health care crises, economic crises that our country has seen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zakaria pointed out that former President Bill Clinton\u2019s Treasury secretary, Larry Summers, said the amount of spending the Biden administration favored was too much. He asked, \u201cAre you worried if all of this goes through that it may just be too much?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not worried yet,\u201d Clinton said. \u201cAnd really for a couple of reasons. We have seen signs of very robust economic growth. California, for example, given the existing tax structure, has seen a huge infusion of tax revenue because of stock market gains and then the capital gains that came with those. I think the same is beginning to happen elsewhere in the country. \u2026 I\u2019m willing to look over the horizon and keep an eye out for any problems. But right now, I think we\u2019re trying to right size the government to meet the challenges of today.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
