Well, if you describe the American dream as "socialist utopia" then you're right, he did terminate that.
If you describe the American dream as our Founders did as self government, he did much to encourage that.
If you don't govern yourself, who is really to blame for that?
The answer isn't to tax even more you moron. Tell your people to fucking stop spending.

So raising taxes, granting amnesty to illegal aliens, retreating from Lebanons terrorists after they killed 200+ Marines, and negotiating with terrorists (and giving the Stinger missiles) is what the Founders thought of as "The American Dream"?

Actually, when he granted amnesty to the illegals, the borders were to be protected against more illegals entering....well we all know that Congress didn't follow through on that. I don't think you can blame Reagan on that.....although it was a good idea if everything would have fell into place. We wouldn't be having the problems today if it had been done right.

In wingnut world, Reagan was a great president because he got snookered on amnesty.
In wingnut world, you can't blame Reagan for trusting politicians who can't be trusted.

okey dokey, did that make ANY sense?
Specific to topic, I can think of 3 items changing in the American Dream:
Pre-Reagan, America had a steel industry.
Post-Reagan, little steel industry left to speak of.
Pre-Reagan, America had a viable U.S. auto industry.
Post Reagan, mostly Japanese autos being bought.
Pre-Reagan, small retailers still existed in large numbers.
Post-Reagan, corporate chain retailers mushroomed.
Who was in control of the house and senate? Dems that's who.
Regan had to work with them.

Wonder why we've got record federal deficits? Much of the cause stems from Reagan's corporate tax breaks; by 1983 the portion of tax receipts derived from corporate income taxes dropped to an all-time low of 6.2%, down from 12.5% in 1980 and 32.1% in 1952.
