Gwh bush

are you saying that reagan didnt raise taxes 11 times? What about heh bush. ? Remember when he said "no new taxes" he subsequently raised taxes. Why is that?

socialism and capitalism are two different things. Please look up the definitions and tell me how obama fits in those categories.

obamacare is not socialized medicine. The insurance on the exchange comes from private insurance companies. Smh

if that is the case why did he raise taxes 11 times

but you cant hang. Roflmbo

did you want reagan to be impeached? You were an adult when it happened. Why would you send marines into a hostile environment and not allow them to have loaded guns. They were sitting ducks. Smh

That is what happens when you reduce taxes

President Reagan, has remained popular as an antitax hero despite raising taxes eleven times over the course of his presidency, all in the name of fiscal responsibility.[22] Reagan ultimately raised taxes more times than he cut them.[23] According to Paul Krugman, "Over all, the 1982 tax increase undid about a third of the 1981 cut; as a share of GDP, the increase was substantially larger than Mr. Clinton's 1993 tax increase."[10] According to historian and domestic policy adviser Bruce Bartlett, Reagan's tax increases over the course of his presidency took back half of the 1981 tax cut.

In 1981, Reagan significantly reduced the maximum tax rate, which affected the highest income earners, and lowered the top marginal tax rate from 70% to 50%; in 1986 he further reduced the rate to 28%.[15] The federal deficit under Reagan peaked at 6% of GDP in 1983, falling to 3.2% of GDP in 1987[16] and to 3.1% of GDP in his final budget.[17] The inflation-adjusted rate of growth in federal spending fell from 4% under Jimmy Carter to 2.5% under Ronald Reagan; however, federal deficit as percent of GDP was up throughout the Reagan presidency from 2.7% at the end of (and throughout) the Carter administration.[2][17] As a short-run strategy to reduce inflation and lower nominal interest rates, the U.S. borrowed both domestically and abroad to cover the Federal budget deficits, raising thenational debt from $997 billion to $2.85 trillion.[18]This led to the U.S. moving from the world's largest international creditor to the world's largest debtor nation.[19] Reagan described the new debt as the "greatest disappointment" of his presidency.[20]
