Ronald Reagan

[Il Duce]

So whats your opinon on Ronald Reagan?

[MrBaggins]

no good actor, bad politican option?

[Imran Siddiqui]

Good for America and the World .

One of my political heros.

[nationalist]

"Reaganomics" screwed the American workingman. I am a right-wing American Conservative who strongly dislikes Ronald Reagan.

[Imran Siddiqui]

How? The rich got richer and the poor got richer during Reagan's administration.

The streamlining of bureaucracy opened the way for a technological boom in the 90s.

[Felch]

The American workingman should stop *****ing about how they can't find a job, and realize that they can only keep their jobs if they work harder for less, like people in other countries. A job is not an entitlement.

[Il Duce]

SDI

Wow no anti-Reagan crusader mentioned SDI. Amazing

[Il Duce]

Ditto

Ditto to Imran's reply. And how soon do people forget the 1970s'

[Provost Harrison]

Ah, old Ronnie Raygun.

See my views on Thatcher...

[Ramo]

Dirty authoritarian ass.

Uninformed S.O.B.!! Total Bull****! If you are saying that my dad and his co-workers are lazy, then you can go **** yourself you arrogant *****. The reason that 3rd world countries can undersell American industry is because they don't come anywhere close to meeting the enviromental and labor standards of American industry. What do you think, should American workers become slaves? Should we get rid of labor unions and environmental laws? NO! Work harder for less? Work where? Our industry is leaving this country more quickly than Mexican illegal immigrants are crossing the Rio Grande. Reagan and the rest of his Republican cronies, corrupt businessmen who put profit before country make crooked deals with third world dictators to illegally maximize profits. Who cares about the working man? Stop *****ing! You can always make a job panhandling in the streets. That, or work an industrial job for $5.15 an hour and no benefits. **** the Environment! **** the Workers! **** the Country!Is that what you want, Felch X?

Take a look at the numbers. Per capita income went up... the rich increased their share of the economy yes, but the lowest classes lost numbers to the middle classes and in turn the middle classes lost their numbers to the upper classes.

Further more, per capita income for lower and upper classes both increased.

We need more Presidents like Ronnie.

:wonders if he has enough energy to start another Ronald Reagan debate thread:

:realizes he'd rather watch Chris Jericho and Triple H kick each other's asses:

It's called Free Market Capitalism, get used to it.

This ignorant argument was defeated when Al Gore beat Ross Perot to a pulp in a debate over globalization.

Yes, the US workingman has suffered soooo much because of globalization . Compare the 1970s to 2002... freer trade has made things better for Americans.
