Reagan was the king of selling out the country long term to make his short term numbers look good.


Oh, I totally agree with that. I'm not a fan of Reagan in general, and dislike his neoliberal economic policies in particular.
Still, skinned said that Republicans have never led the country out of a recession, and that's just not true. Reagan did just that, no matter how much we might disagree with his means.

Depends how you define "led the country out of a recession"

Anybody can deregulate, cut taxes, and generally screw over the future for the sake of their numbers, but that's very poor leadership.

He's right in decent decades they absolutely did the worst and they are not the only ones, in France we had same kind of issues with Sarkozy.
Typically; helping rich friends or relations, short run 'good' results, messing up in middle East, all this expense of the budget.

The scam of a 'volunteer', dynamic' right but the fact is these assholes are even worse than caviar left!

Social security was always a convenient lie according to the first law of themodynamics. I'll be fine by then with enough stock and FD's to make it summertime snow.

You have to remember that the Federal Reserve had NEGATIVE interest rates under Obama and the economy still flopped.
