Who benefited from the expenditures in the 1980's, and who did not?

Trump, as did Reagan, will likely created a new Arms Race.

Clinton may keep her promise to rebuild, replace and repair our infrastructure.
[sidebar: If and only if the voters send Ryan to a back bench and the H. of Rep. is remade and the people elect pragmatic and not ideological lemmings)

Trump's plan benefits the Military-Industrial and the Pharmaceutical-medical complexes.

Clinton's plan benefits all, creating jobs and keeping our air, water and soil from further pollutants.

It's no contest, there are not enough fools in America, maybe only 25%, who will vote for Trump. A know liar and an individual psychologically unfit to be POTUS.

Don't underestimate the fool as a voting bloc. Reagan won every single state in 1984. Minnesota was the exception. People are too young to remember the big spender FDR that made every ones dream come true. Reagan was the biggest spender of our lifetime.

Let's think about this. If you were a kid and your parents decided to borrow 4 times their annual income and buy the things they enjoyed without altering their current lifestyle. Would you like it? I sure would.

Clinton is a robot. Clinton is fiscally conservative. Clinton is responsible. She is the boring and harsh candidate that everybody hates.

Trump is the fun guy that is always joking around. Trump speaks his mind no matter how silly he sounds. He's genuine. He isn't a robot. He is going to give us everything including lowering the debt. He knows that's impossible. The voters do too. They don't care about it as long as you give them everything they want without altering their current level of interaction with government.

Obama.....

He sure didn't give us everything we wanted. Remember the Affordable Care Act? Everybody is getting screwed by the Affordable Care Act which benefits the Federal Budget and all State Budgets. He is the guy that everybody hates because he is being too responsible. I'm about to calculate his figures in a second.

People loved Reagan. They will absolutely love Trump.

"Obama"?

I don't underestimate you Owebo, you seem to be a classic fool and a block head who will vote against the best interest of our country.

What would a rational person think of a homeowner who surrounded his home with land mines, had an arsenal of weapons to protect it and yet never fixed his/her leaking roof?
