That's a different discussion; at least you have abandoned the fantasy of Reagan's Supply Side Economics.You're not living in the world of reality and anybody who thinks Trump's tariffs, and protectionism is a great economic plan is delusional.. Trump doesn't even believe it himself, he's just playing to the fools. If he gets in office he'll be a pragmatist. The thing that catapulted trump was is his position on closing the borders. The other cramp is for the easily swayed cultistThere's no way you don't know about Oct 17, 1987 unless you're full of shit or your elders "forgot" to relate to you what a disaster Reagan's Global Democracy & Capitalism Program turned out to be.I'm not sure what you're talking about, but the Reagan boom speaks for itself... dot com bullshit.. Any good economy Clinton got was from the Reagan tax reform, The Reagan peace dividend after the fall of the Soviet empire, and the Republican congress forcing Clinton to rein in his spending plansReally?We had 4 ,5, 6 even 7 % growth in this country. people where working good jobs and moving up the income ladder. The Reagan boom lasted through he Clinton administration![]()
Black Friday destroyed our economy until the short lived COM bubble came along.
You can't be that much younger than me.
Supply Side Economics had to be replaced by Financial Firm scams.
I lived and worked through the DOT COM era, and though Clinton was incidental, it's success had NOTHING to do with Reagan.
The US is the consumer of the world; the mere threat of tariffs by someone with guts will have a very positive effect on our employment numbers.
If haven't abandon anything. Start a thread on Reagan if you'd like. I'd be happy to get your mind right on Reagan, who was one of those most successful presidents in the history of this country. What will have a overwhelmingly positive effect on our economy is exactly what Reagan did ...Tax reform, Cutting all these stupid ,idiotic, regulations, smothering our manufacturing, and small businesses. Opening up more federal lands to energy production ect.. Tariffs don't work, they have never worked, and Trump is simply blowing smoke out of his ass for public consumption.
