And the budget deficit tripled under Reagan. Yeah, a shame, but the recovery of the economy is ultimately more important. He didn't leave office with double digit unemployment and inflation like Carter did. I see. Like Tim, you don't see a connection between the deficit and the economy. Out of curiousity, why do you think the dollar is falling? Yes, and the American air controller system is a mess. You're really reaching there. Whats the matter with it? Are planes falling from the skies? Hmmm.......I wish you guys would listen to the mainstream press from time to time so you would stay au current. Last summer was one of the worst in terms of on time planes in the history of US aviation. Why? Our air traffic control uses antiquated equipment and is short on personnel which limits the number of planes that can be in the air and the number that can land at any given time. The system is overtaxed.......you know like bridges that cross the Mississippi River in MPLS. Of course........the GOP loves pain...it makes everything worthwhile. Considering the economic recovery, it was indeed worthwhile. Yup. You mean the one that fell right back into recession under Bush I. Yeah.....Reagan did a great job. Most people dread flying these days. I do. Only because of the way the airlines treat passengers though. And you don't see a connection to deregulation.
