LMFAO Carter inherited his mess from Nixon who took us off the gold standard and pissed of the Saudis in the Yom Kippur war leading to the oil shocks of the 1970s. Reagan blew billions of dollars on boondoggles like Star Wars while gutting the tax rates for the rich. The result? Massive increase in the national debt with no proportionate increase in GDP. GOP = Borrow and spend
Reagan played a part in ending the cold war. It was a smaller part than Gorbachev played, but Ronnie did play a part. He certainly didn't end it by himself.
Respond to the substance, the numbers that prove that, even if the author is the biggest, most shill-like hack in the universe, based on the numbers, his claims are valid. You could also look at my paper which found the exact same thing. Reducing tax rates does NOT positively impact economic growth in any way.
not to the right wing conservatives who have been brainwashed into thinking that tax cuts for the rich = more jobs.
