You forgot the biggest item "Tax Cuts"

This is what I mean. Remember JFK

‪Income Tax Cut, JFK Hopes To Spur Economy 1962/8/13‬‏ - YouTube
Reagan combined spending and tax cuts to achieve the Keynesian strategy of increasing demand through debt spending.

Alternatively it didn't work as well for Bush or Obama.

So it helps to ask yourself how the government can push the economy so much for so long and see little to no sustainable growth for about a decade.

Blame Bush, blame Obama, I don't care. Personally I blame the fact that the US labor market has not been a good investment for about a decade.
