NO, deficits like the ones that Reagan put up weren't common and accepted.

Much larger deficits had happened at least 3 times before, and smaller but growing deficits had been a feature for quite some time before Reagan. There was no dramatic break up from the previous trend.

Of course continuing a bad trend is still bad.
