When Reagan took office tens of thousands of soldiers were on foodstamps. Equipment was WW2 and Vietnam era. Yes, the budget increased. But you're wrong on government employment. The numbers speak for themselves.

1980 4,965 in thousands.
1981 4,982
1982 4,972
1983 5,039
1984 5,088
1985 5,256
1986 5,228
1987 5,301
1988 5,289
1989 5,292

Thats a 300,000 increase. Now, explain the other 20+ million jobs. hahahaha

And your right, the deficit was out of control. I've spoken in digust of that myself. But you refuse to acknowledge the extreme growth of our economy, unprecidented job growth in both numbers and % of population. Drastic drops in interest, inflation, jobless rate....

Its undeniable. As is the fact that you are young and inexperienced in the world.

People like vector aren't interested in knowing the truth. Literally the DNC or some other democratic talking point delivery source gives him his opinion. Imagine someone so divorced from reality they would actually come on here and say that Reagan's fiscal policies didn't work. I mean, he got the time frame right, 1980, but everything else he believes is liberal spin. The democrats know they can count on the vectors of this land's vote no matter how damning the revelations of their failures.
