I bet you said the same thing about the midterms, right before the dems took the shellacking of their lives
Come on now. for them that was a fluke and we should know this whole country just love em those Progressive/democrats...
good grief. some people in the dem party just never will accept reality
What they are missing is that the midterms were a clear sign people are recognizing Dem policies are not working. And now Obama has blundered Iran away and cemented his position as quite possibly the worst foreign policy president in history and guess who helped him mold that policy while Sec of State?
It said loud and clear we don't WANT anymore of you Progressives and Obama running over us...so the time could be right for a Conservative/Republican...just like after Jimma Carter...in fact Obama has been even worse what he's brought down on us
It took a Carter to get a Reagan and that's what we need now.

The Whitewashing of Ronald Reagan
A Gallup poll taken in 1992 found that Ronald Reagan was the most unpopular living president apart from Nixon, and ranked even below Jimmy Carter; just 46 percent of Americans had a favorable view of Reagan while Carter was viewed favorably by 63 percent of Americans.
This was before the Hollywood-style re-write of Reagan’s presidency that created the fictional character portrayed during Reagan’s 100th birthday celebration.

Reagan cut taxes for everybody.
Sure he did Bubba,THAT'S why right wing Mises says this:
Tax Cuts. One of the few areas where Reaganomists claim success without embarrassment is taxation. Didn't the Reagan administration, after all, slash income taxes in 1981, and provide both tax cuts and "fairness" in its highly touted tax reform law of 1986? Hasn't Ronald Reagan, in the teeth of opposition, heroically held the line against all tax increases?
The answer, unfortunately, is no. In the first place, the famous "tax cut" of 1981 did not cut taxes at all. It's true that tax rates for higher-income brackets were cut; but for the average person, taxes rose, rather than declined. The reason is that, on the whole, the cut in income tax rates was more than offset by two forms of tax increase.

Boy do I miss honest conservatives like Goldwater
One was "bracket creep," a term for inflation quietly but effectively raising one into higher tax brackets,
And then he indexed the brackets for inflation.
So the idiotic claim here is that cutting taxes didn't cut taxes, because..............inflation.
So I guess there was no inflation, before the tax cuts. LOL!
It's hilarious to see you quoting (and agreeing with, I guess) this goofy libertarian.
The second source of higher taxes was Social Security taxation, which kept increasing, and which helped taxes go up overall.
I know, it was awful when the Social Security taxes were hiked from 5.7% all the way up to 6.2%. That totally wiped out the much, much larger drop in income tax rates. Not.
THAT'S why right wing Mises

In 1980, according to Congressional Budget Office estimates, middle-income families with children paid 8.2 percent of their income in income taxes, and 9.5 percent in payroll taxes.
Reagan didn't raise payroll taxes from the 1980 levels. He raised them from the 1983 levels. I'm shocked your source would lie about that.
By 1988 the income tax share was down to 6.6 percent
See, told you he didn't just cut rates for the top 1%, as you claimed earlier.
Liar!

See, told you he didn't just cut rates for the top 1%, as you claimed earlier.
Liar!
Boy do I miss honest conservatives THE POINT IS THE MIDDLE 40% OF US SAW THEIR FEDERAL TAX BURDEN INCREASE UNDER REAGAN. Weird right?
Yes, Reagan increased SS taxes by over $2.7+ trillion the next 25 years, that Ronnie/Dubya used to hide the true costs of tax cuts for the rich!!!
THE POINT IS THE MIDDLE 40% OF US SAW THEIR FEDERAL TAX BURDEN INCREASE UNDER REAGAN.
The point is, Reagan didn't change payroll taxes until 1983, liar.
Weird, right?
Yes agreed, Ronnie increased SS taxes AND the federal tax burden on the middle class increased under him AS HE GUTTED TAXES FOR THE RICH Bubba
In 1980, according to Congressional Budget Office estimates, middle-income families with children paid 8.2 percent of their income in income taxes, and 9.5 percent in payroll taxes.
Reagan didn't raise payroll taxes from the 1980 levels. He raised them from the 1983 levels. I'm shocked your source would lie about that.
By 1988 the income tax share was down to 6.6 percent
See, told you he didn't just cut rates for the top 1%, as you claimed earlier.

Yes agreed, Ronnie increased SS taxes
Yup, he increased them after 1983.
AND the federal tax burden on the middle class increased under him
As your own source showed, his income tax cuts on the middle class were larger than his SS tax hike on the middle class.

BZZ WRONG
AGAIN:
In the first place, the famous "tax cut" of 1981 did not cut taxes at all. It's true that tax rates for higher-income brackets were cut; but for the average person, taxes rose, rather than declined.
National Bureau study by Hausman and Poterba on the Tax Reform Act shows that over 40% of the nation's taxpayers suffered a marginal tax increase (or at best, the same rate as before) and, of the majority that did enjoy marginal tax cuts, only 11% got reductions of 10% or more. In short, most of the tax reductions were negligible. Not only that; the Tax Reform Act, these authors reckoned, would lower savings and investment overall because of the huge increases in taxes on business and on capital gains. Moreover savings were also hurt by the tax law's removal of tax deductibility on contributions to IRAs.

Got it. You'll continue to be a moron and willfully ignorant of the difference between tax rates and tax burden. I'm shocked, lol
I'm loathe to agree with the hyperpartisan clown brigade on anything, but yeah. Isn't it pretty common knowledge he raised taxes?So Reagan is alleged to have raised taxes and Democrats don't like that?
Get friggin' REAL!
