Reagan was busy rebuilding the USA military that Carter had defunded and demolished to advance the Leftist socialist agendas, as well as funding the war in Afghanistan against the Soviets. Considering the result was the collapse of the USSR and end of decades old Cold War, we got our money's worth.That may be. True and false. The point is that is was a supposedly conservative stalwart that is held up nostalgically like some beacon of light, was the one who started the ballooning deficit dominos falling.
I'm well aware of how to read the data. And the data says conservatives are deficit lovers..while giving generous tax breaks reducing revenue.
Meanwhile, the tab wasn't that great if you compare to the creeping inflation from previous admins. and the higher deficits of those that followed.
You continue to come across as one whom never had to deal with a P&L ledger.
