Reagan revolutionized our economy
We were on the wrong end of that revolution. Of course if you looted a savings and loan or defaulted on a land deal you might have come out alright. Everyone else got the debt.

Re: "Reagan revolutionized our economy, resulting in a great 20 year boom. All reputable economists agree."

I would argue there's a direct correlation between a healthy American economy and peace on earth. The end of the Cold War certainly was a factor, and Ronald Reagan deserves much credit for bringing this about.

Unfortunately, the present administration appears clueless on how to address the economic malaise, which reached yet another nadir this afternoon.
