In 1996, the public was mad over the fact that President William Jefferson Clinton was not run out of office. Californians were so mad at the aquittal of OJ Simpson for the murder of his wife, they literally voted to get rid of Affirmitive Action for African Americans and all other minorities. There wasn’t much they to do about either celebrity, but they could figure out ways to keep the government from financing too many entitlement programs. Clinton was barely re-elected in 1996 after that terrible scandal involving Monica Lewinsky, so extremely conservative Republicans could block any of his programs. President Clinton and his wife Hillary were very devoted to the idea of affordable medical insurance for all Americans, years before anybody knew of President Obama.

The Speaker of the House, a Republican, informed the White house that they would block all attempts to fund his wife’s Affordable care act unless by Executive Order, he dismantled the Internal Revenue Service. They also threatened to bring more women forward to claim that he sexually molested them when they too were interns. Clinton was against the ropes. He signed the Executive Order dismantling the IRS. He was given two concessions: He had until June 30, 1997 to make sure all IRS employees were either retired or fired, and that he could select a private collection agency to take their place. President Clinton was not totally defeated after all. He had an old college buddy from Arkansas who had just gotten clearence to collect back taxes the IRS was unabble to collect. Clinton sold all the back tax accounts to his buddy’s agency. This was a good move for the president. Delinquent taxpayer’s owed the federal government two billion in unpaid federal taxes.
