Exactly.

Remember when this country made things, and the rich paid their fair share, and the middle class wielded incredible buying power and the country as a whole prospered?

It all started to go downhill when Reagan became President, and Roger Smith was running GM into the ground.

:soapbox:

Republicans and business have always chanted for government to get out of their way so they could prosper. Did that mean to pave the way for getting out of paying taxes? You have the poor that don't pay taxes. (can't get blood out of a turnip). You have Big Business and Billionaires and Millionaires who get the least amount of withholding ever. Who does that leave to pay the piper? It's about time everyone gets their head out of the sand and take a look around at who is screwing whom! In the meantime they take advantage of the enviroment for a buck.

This does matter, this is my point(probably made too often but so be it) Republican-Democrat, there's no difference anymore and hasn't been for a long time. :(

You know everyone like to blame Regan for all the stuff that went wrong in the 80's, but they seem to overlook the Democratic controlled congress led by "Tip" O'Neal.  I know Regan wasn't perfect (I know some people think he was!), but you can't blame him for everything.

By the end of his term, 138 Reagan administration officials had been convicted, had been indicted, or had been the subject of official investigations for official misconduct and/or criminal violations.
In terms of number of officials involved, the record of his administration was the worst ever. I believe Nixon only had eight staffers convicted of crimes against their office.

I'm guessing that your misspelling of Reagan's name was an accident, but it's more telling than you know. During the Reagan Years (capitalization, mine) Don Regan shaped fiscal policy more than you know.
