A. Does not matter because Reagan does not pass tax law. The Democrats ran both houses and any tax increases are on their head.
B. Same rationale as A
C. So what? This only means that wealthy people did what it takes when the poor do not. This gap is solely useful to liberals who want to redistribute income.
D. See A and B.
I would guess A, B, and C.

And yet some people actually list him as a great President. He was nothing but another spokesmodel put in power by Big Money. He was a huckster, a pitchman for 20 Mule Team Borax, a lousy grade B actor, and he had very little to do with the collapse of The Soviet Union, their economy collapsed.

And we scrambled out of Beirut thus encouraging the terrorism we deal with today
the answer below that states Reagan ended the cold war is BS, 40 years of policy on both sides of the aisle led to the end of the soviet union and the only thing Jimmy Carter did right in his presidency was escalate the arms build up that led to the collapse Ronnie buy just happened to be at the helm when it happened

All of them according to my history teacher. I know that a huge deficit was amassed and taxes increased. However, we had a good economy and I like his policy on the communists. He was a true cold war warrior.

All four. But, what else do you expect when someone relies on popularity to enter office. Same with Schwarzenegger.
