The American Dream disapears under Reaganism...wake up!

[The T]

1. WORKERS PRODUCE MORE BUT THE GAINS GO TO BUSINESS.

Over the past 63 years worker productivity has grown by 2.0% per year.

But after 1980, workers received a smaller share every year. Labor’s share of income (1992 = 100%):

1950 = 101%
1960 = 105%
1970 = 105%
1980 = 105% – Reagan
1990 = 100%
2000 = 96%
2007 = 92%

A 13% drop since 1980

2. THE TOP 10% GET A LARGER SHARE.

Share of National Income going to Top 10%:

1950 = 35%
1960 = 34%
1970 = 34%
1980 = 34% – Reagan
1990 = 40%
2000 = 47%
2007 = 50%

An increase of 16% since Reagan.

3. WORKERS COMPENSATED FOR THE LOSS OF INCOME BY SPENDING THEIR SAVINGS.

The savings Rose up to Reagan and fell during and after.

1950 = 6.0%
1960 = 7.0%
1970 = 8.5%
1980 = 10.0% – Reagan
1982 = 11.2% – Peak
1990 = 7.0%
2000 = 2.0%
2006 = -1.1% (Negative = withdrawing from savings)

A 12.3% drop after Reagan.

4. WORKERS ALSO BORROWED TO MAKE UP FOR THE LOSS.

Household Debt as percentage of GDP:

1965 = 46%
1970 = 45%
1980 = 50% – Reagan
1990 = 61%
2000 = 69%
2007 = 95%

A 45% increase after 1980.

5. SO THE GAP BETWEEN THE RICHEST AND THE POOREST HAS GROWN.

Gap Between the Share of Capital Income earned by the top 1%
and the bottom 80%:

1980 = 10%
2003 = 56%

A 5.6 times increase.

6. AND THE AMERICAN DREAM IS GONE.

The Probably of Moving Up from the Bottom 40% to the Top 40%:

1945 = 12%
1958 = 6%
1990 = 3%
2000 = 2%

A 10% Decrease.

The Demise of the American Middle Class In Numbers. | Fact Left

At what pace did the GDP grow each year Reagan was in office?

How many jobs were added under the entire eight years of Reagan's administration?

Why was Reagan elected by sweeping majorities and landslides if the economy and the working class were in such hardship?

The left is perpetually engaging in revisionist history. The fact is Reagan was beloved by a overwhelming majority of Americans and compared to Reagan Obama is a joke.

 

[LoneLaugher]

Reagan was beloved because he was charming. What he did caused damage that we are still dealing with.

Want to take a stab at the questions that I posed to Paulie, stat-boy?

Reagan was beloved because he was charming. What he did caused damage that we are still dealing with.

Want to take a stab at the questions that I posed to Paulie, stat-boy?

Yes, and Obama has no charm or appeal. In fact, that is one area where Obama consistently polls well, and the left is always reminding us, that is well liked.

stat-boy? Is that an insult? Every time I back up what I say it pisses you off.

What was your questions? I'd love to destroy your flimsy and poorly-conceived argument with stats and facts.

I know you won't answer my questions so I will for you. At what pace did the GDP grow under Reagan? The GDP grew at an average of 4% annually under Reagan. How many jobs were added under Reagan? Twenty million jobs were added during the eight years of Reagan's presidency.

No, not enough "n"'s you fucking idiot.

You know your childish posts just lets everyone know who the real idiot is

 

[ClosedCaption]

They just need another 30 years and trust...things will be awesome

I'll wake up when you have something other than left wing nut drivel to say.

You are a child. What is your point? The undeniable fact, and yes I can give you links, is that GDP grew at an astounding rate, millions of jobs were added, tax rates were slashed and remarkably tax revenues increased--what you and the left is desperately attempting to do is rewrite history.

Have the data to back it up? Or should I go on ignoring you...

[Yeah I gave due deference from a previous stance of YOU as an idiot...now PROVE your assertion or shut up].

 

[Google]

Every time I have given you a stat or fact to back up what I'm saying to respond not by providing a intelligent or insightful retort with your own stats and facts--you insult. Again, you are a child and have nothing to contribute.

Except Obama signed the budget that year, the only time he did. And it included his "stimulus" plan.
