Much Of What You've Heard About Carter And Reagan Is Wrong

[lantern2814]

Only the USA had "chattel slavery". In fact, you invented it. All of the other civilized nations in the world ended slavery in 1810, but the USA not only clung to the notion. You compensated plantation owners for their "property" when Lincoln freed the slaves, but you never compensated the slaves. Just freed them, and turned them loose with nothing.

Carter was not in the least bit "awful". He's the guy that green lit all of your "smart weapons" that won the Gulf War for you. But he wasn't a Washington insider, and he didn't have a good grasp of how the Federal government worked. He was considered "too honest" for Washington. Then he foolishly decided not to campaign for re-election as long as the hostages were being held in Iran.

Trump didn't start a war, he just let a pandemic run loose in the country and killed a million people that way.

Another pile of bullshit from the resident moron. And pathetic whining and lying about Trump. As per usual. By the way dumbfuck, more people died from the Fauci Flu under your hero Xiden than under Trump. So STFu.

Carter has always been deemed one of, if not the worst president of the 20th century, and he deserved it with his horrible leadership skills.

Carter is currently ranked 26th out of 45 Presidents. Hardly "one of the worst", nor were his leadership skills "horrible". He made some bad decisions in regards to campaigning, but his decisions on behalf of the country have stood the test of time.

Reagan was a terrible President, who is was the first Republican to crash the economy. His destruction of the union movement has had far reaching implications, and he began the transfer of wealth that is responsible for the inequity you have today.

Why should I care about Noah Smith's lefty, Krugman like opinion of history? He's just another confirmation bias you want to exhibit to troll.

Yeah, except for the charts and numbers and facts, his opinion is just his right.

Wronbg and massively wrong

It is historic fact that chattel slavery existed in many places before the US

Your claim si a bald faced lie and proven so by history.

Wrong

The ranking system is by design a biased ranking system ignoring facts

Reagan was the last great president who resotred a wrecked economy and engineered the defeat of the most evil nation in human histry

Try a book rather than your silly revisionist fiction

Comparing Carter (a Yugo) to Reagan (a Porsche) is comical

If two people working at a fast-food place are married and earning 45 to 60 thousand dollars a year total, they would be in the 49% tax bracket today without Reagan. Tell us what is responsible and what is not. And the rates get higher and higher as there were many brackets with no inflation indexing. Perhaps there would have been a revolution by now with all of the freeloaders.

Chattel slavery was practiced in ancient Greek and Roman times

I didnt know the jimmeh had women slaves down on the peanut farm.

Cult fucks love to rewrite history.

If you listened to cult fucks, you would think the USA is the only nation on earth that has slavery in their past, when the reality is that EVERY SINGLE NATION ON EARTH HAS SLAVERY IN THEIR PAST.

Here is just another bullshit narrative.

Carter was awful, other than not starting a war.

Trump didnt start a war either.

And in fact, there are CURRENTLY over 9 million slaves on the African continent, and no one cares.

Yes. They only care when they can use it for political gains.

Carter wanted true energy independence from ME oil. He also wanted to end the war on Americans who smoked Marijuana. He was a head of his time.

Big Oil and Big Business set out to destroy him. He was effectively Carter'ised by the fall of 1980.

You sorta made her point. Even a Karmann Ghia is far superior to a Yugo. LOL
