That entire post is nonsense. I said 50's and 60's, how did you get 70's 80's and 90's?

Clinton turned to the right to get elected because you right wingers successfully propagandized the rank and file with racism, and falsehoods about social programs and liberals being the devil.

The deficits are the result of tax cuts for the rich, stupid wars and Bush destroying the world economy.

Christ what a load of garbage!

Koan, you are telling me things were better in 1970's America during stagflation than the 80's and 90's? In the 80's and 90's we had tax cuts, deregulation, and tides of conservatism washing over politics. Even Bill Clinton became more conservative after his initial liberal policies failed.

By the way, the social programs that you praise are the same social programs that is leading to higher and higher deficits. Even Obama left us with a "new normal" of $580B/year in deficits for non-recession years. Trump will leave us with an even bigger deficit, and so will his successor.

It's all due to Social Security and Medicare. Oh wait! The only party that opposes any changes to those programs are Democrats! You know, the party of socialists ...
