The Reagan years

 

Now you done it

 

I miss Martin o malley, he seemed like a decent fellow.

 

Don't you dare suggest that the left are some dirty mo fo's. They are the party of peace love and hair grease and only the right does dirty tricks

 

they simply dont know Bernie Sanders and Vermont is 86% white, Black people still love Bill Clinton, that is probably the biggest factor.

 

oh him, the guy the raised the deficit and taxes, gotcha. The 80s was a shitty economic time for a lot of people who were not at the top.

The '80s
The first two years of this decade were defined by a painful recession. More than 12 million Americans (nearly 11 percent) were jobless, business bankruptcies rose by 50 percent, and business failures in 1982 reached the highest level since the Great Depression. Steel and other heavy industries, particularly in the Midwestern Rust Belt, struggled with competition from Japan and Germany, a decline in production, and the closing of factories. The nation experienced a seismic shift known as deindustrialization.

President Ronald Reagan challenged the belief that government should drive the solutions to the nation's economic problems. He stressed the benefits of a free market and a strong private sector, and supported a new climate of business deregulation, tax cutting, and decreased social spending. Still, overall government spending increased (particularly the defense budget) and the national debt ballooned.

His economy helped those at the top with an emerging Bull Market, the economy grew under his watch after a recession the first 2 years and office. Im sure you will give him credit for this. Will you give Obama the same credit for this jobs recovery and stock market percentage increase?
