Skimming the FRED data [1], we've had lots of ups and downs since the 60's, but are basically flat since 1980. It does look like Clinton's policies had an effect, but mostly to cause a small boom / bust cycle. The entire graph only takes place between 63% and 69%, so not that big of a change. The Clinton-era policies did seem reverse the trend in the 80s, so that's something. Hard to say if post-pandemic inflation will disrupt that though. 1: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/RHORUSQ156N https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/RHORUSQ156N
