  • In 1981, the beginning of Reagans presidency, the top 5% of wage earners paid 35% of federal income taxes, while the bottom 50% paid 8%. By 1988, the end of Reagans presidency, the top 5% paid 46% of the federal taxes, while the bottom 50% paid 6% (Joint Economic Committee, 1990)

    Looks like most people would prefer liberals be electrocuted rather then hung

  • During Reagans presidency he decreased the tax rate of the richest quintile from 70% in 1981 to 31% in 1988 (Joint Economic Committee, 1990)

    Dam there are just so many ways to show Reagan was is and always will be better then obama or any other tax and tax and tax and spend liberal

  • During the Carter administration (1977-80), of the new jobs created, 41,77% were under $7,012, 68.2% were in the $7,012- $28,048/yr bracket, and 9.9% of the pre-existing jobs in the $28,048 and up bracket were actually lost (Joint Economic Committee, based on data from Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor)

    Any libs ever heard of the JEC or DOL? they are real feel free to look them up ^_^

  • can that be better then Reaganomics. The answer is it isn't nothing about being a liberla is about truth, or wanting to know truth, or carign about others and how their evil will impact others, the unborn, or the living.

  • Well lets review "Reaganomics ="

    -20 million new jobs were created during the Reagan presidency (U.S. Statistical Abstract) -Of these 20 million new jobs: -The average hourly wage was $10/hr. -46.1% were over $28,048/yr, and another 46.2% were from $7,012-$28,048/yr, while only 6% were under $7,012/yr.

    Now good little libs please tell us how since obama came into office using Keynesian economics that with the following being true "tripled deficit spending before his 100th day in office" how

  • @phoenixbornagain I'm not a "lib", like most Americans, I'm a moderate. And I see why you did percentages instead of totals. Because you could take Reagan and both Bushes and add up the total jobs created and Clinton would still have more. Reagan had 16 million, not 20. What would the totals look like? Just curious.

  • @erocker2020 40% conservative 40% independent 20% liberal is how it's set up but the media is largely liberal and those Hollywood types

  • It was also Reagan who rebuilt our military, after his predecessor had practically destroyed it through neglect.

  • In practical terms, "Reaganomics" has to be considered one of the reasons that Reagan has come to be thoughtof as a great president. Reaganomics created an unprecedented period of economic prosperity. It was only the Democratic-controlled congress' insistence on continuing to raise wasteful government spending beyond the means that even this economic boom would support that cut sort the prosperity that Reaganomics brought.

    RIP to our last real president Ronald Reagan. Amen

  • @phoenixbornagain But is it not true that his "voodoo economics" helped to kill the middle class? And isn't it also true that the deficit drastically increased because of "Reaganomics". And that when the evil Democrats where in the White House through the 90's the deficit was drastically decreased while also enjoying a thriving economy? And it just creeps me out when politicians try to get support by going to religion. It creates what we have now, this divisiveness between fellow Americans.

  • The Founding Fathers were secularists who established a secular state.

  • mafrick40205,

    Not so... Don't know where you got your facts or you just made them up. Most Founding Fathers were church goers and a majority were Free and Accepted Masons. If you knew anything about Masons, you wouldn't have acused them of being secularist.

    This country was founded on the belief in God and most of the original laws were along the lines of the Ten Commandments.

    You don't have to attend church to be a christian, but it probably wouldn't hurt.

    God Bless America..

  • So, you're trying to tell me that our constitutional democracy is a religious (Christian) institution? Maybe you should ask the Supreme Court about that proposition.

  • mafrick40205,

    I did not say constitutional democray is a religious institution. Most of the original designers were religious men.

    You anti christians need to thank someone. If I didn't believe in God, heaven and hell, I'd be a mean s.o.b.

    I wouldn't think a thing about killing any of you liberals and your whole family, even your dang cat. There are lots of people like me in the world. Our faith in God keeps us from murdering idiots we don't agree with.

    So, you do need to thank God.

  • Look, I'm not "anti christian". It's awful for me to believe that it's only your belief in a divine punisher that keeps you from murdering families. How good an ethics is that, really?

    The absence of any evidence for the existence of a god certainly doesn't lead me to think that I have license to behave badly.

  • same here

  • Fucking asshole. I absolutely despise Ronald Reagan and everything that he stood for.

  • Joshsirjoshules,

    Dude you are confused.

    You hate freedom and liberty.

    You need to grow up and maybe read a history book on President Reagan.

    Every president we've had since Reagan has taken away some of our freedoms and gave the police and government more power over us.

    Jimmy Carter was the worst president in the last 100 years. Regan got us out of a terrible mess left by Carter and didn't raise taxes to do it.

  • All religions are shit. Believe in a god (supreme being) is just stupid.

    I love Sweden for it's secularism, it's the best system to govern a free and equal country.

  • regan was a dumb asshole....

  • Dumbass american religious - politics crap.

  • Reagan never even went to church, he was a fraud.

  • the founding fathers were secularists.

  • Thanks. This bears repeating.

  • Right on, jamesdt1980

  • He is right. He is right. He is right. He said God - not any specific religion. When Obama and his cronies get done gutting America you guys will be on your knees asking for help that will not come.

  • Catholicism is the only TRUE religion... Many catholics even, are posers, and when you meet someone who is catholic, and who is forreal about it, you know it's legit.

  • catholicism the only TRUE religion...? it's a dying belief system that clings onto old ideas, and commonly uses fear to control people, it's outdated, and ridiculously ceremonial... men appointing themselves as the vessel to which god communicates is as hocus pocus sounding as the so called god men of india make themselves out to be. more innocent people died & were condemned to hell from catholics than in the name of any other religion in history.

  • most catholics i knew were cirminals

  • @jamesdt1980 The fact that you say it's old and outdated shows how naive you truly are. It's not that it is old, it's that all the "new" makes it seem "outdated" when in fact, it's the true religion. God is the same always, and never changes, so why then must the church change to satisfy the public? that's a rediculous idea! Vatican II brought about all the major changes we see in the church today. The church is being attacked from the inside out since the 1940's by freemasons, the now pope.

  • If the founding fathers had the same additude as minority atheists crying fowl - we'd be a dictatorship for sure. At least they respected all beliefs. Including those in politics.

  • many founding fathers were secularists

  • And many were anti-federalist which is why we have the bill of rights. It's all about a balance because nobody has the same beliefs.

  • HAHAHAHAHA! yeah if all those scientists and philosophers had their way we'd be a dictatorship today!

  • God bless the Gipper!

  • ahhhhhh

    when he said "suited only to a religious people such as ours" I came a little

  • Wow a President with a back-bone....

  • What?

  • Religion is a drug and unfortunately many are hooked on it.

    Its going to take some major rehab to get everyone clean

  • One word Christians choke on,

    C-O-N-S-T-I-T-U-T-I-O-N

  • If by "Christians" you mean the 10% or so you see on TV.

  • Religion creates national psychosis and it makes the most mentaly disturbed the most dangerous.

    National media exploits this human weakness for capital gain...

  • Ronald Reagan was probably the least intelligent president with the exception of George W. Bush. His racist policies and voodoo economics are a big reason we are in the mess we are in today. What a jackass!!!

  • Now let's go and attack some third world country and spread the God's love.

  • That's the way to do it! Threaten me with Hell! lmao

    Because that's the only reason you are Christian am I right? Pascal's Wager? If God isn't there you lose nothing, but if he is, you dont have to suck Satan's cock? Might as well believe in Allah too you stupid prick.

    Have a nice day.

  • Proverds 14 :34

  • Matthew 6:6.

    You're laying it on a bit thick, wouldn't you say?

  • Its your makers words on it not mine.

  • Look, your quotation begs the question: How righteous do we find Reagan to have been? How righteous do we really find America to be? One of the most disturbing tendencies of the religionistic right in America is to confuse their church with the state. When citizens do that everybody loses. It's great that you're religious. I resent your efforts, though, to scare me into sharing your metaphysical views.

    PS: Don't you think that powerful politicians bank on the gullibility of folks like you?

  • Its not MY quotation its just your markers words on it. At the end of the day what they or you thinks comes far from first. I put Gods word on it above you or them on it....Priverds 14:34

  • I hear Reagen tore down the Berlin Wall with his bare hands

  • Only because he was possessed of the spirit of the one true Chuck Norris!

  • Reading these comments and looking at the downvotes and upvotes only proves my suspicion that YouTube has a strange amount of atheists... Or perhaps atheists feel the need to comment on any video involving God or religion. Hmmm... I wonder why that is.

  • It's because we've grown disgusted with false piety and hypocrisy. American religionists are very good at painting themselves as an oppressed minority. Who really buys that, though? Enough is enough! America is for everybody, and that calls for a secular federal government.

  • WRONG

  • Pretty much right. Do you know that as governor of California he had helicopters shoot tear gas at peaceful protestors on the quad at Berkeley?

  • Marketing.

  • By the way, some senile old washed-up B-List actor giving a speech where he says "Mr. Gorbachev tear down this wall" did NOT take down the Soviet Union.

    The Soviet Union wasn't even a socialist country. The basic structure of the USSR was a form of state-sponsored Capitalism, like with the United States & Japan have right now. When Lennin took over, he actually instituted capitalism & dissolved all socialist entities.

    The USSR simply collapsed into itself.

  • Ronald Reagan was a treasonous war criminal. His economic policies were horrendous. He increased the gap between rich & poor.

    Ronald Reagan was just a figure-head. In reality he was going senile in office. The real policy makers were his advisers. Nancy Reagan even cheated on Ronald with Frank Sinatra.

  • Obama is different how?

    - War Criminal : Check

    - Economic Policies: Check

    - Increased gap between rich and poor : Check

    - Senile: No

    - Your... wait... Frank Sinatra?? DaviidHill, you are an adult. act like one.

    It is unwise to step onto the field unprepared. You may respond when I allow it. Now go to bed big boy.

  • "We can find more use in lighthouses than we can in churches."

    - Ben Franklin "The all American Bad Ass"

  • also know as a fatass XD

  • so if your not christian then you cant be an american

  • As an Atheist, I am disgusting by this. I'm an American too, asshole.

  • no you are a IIIIIIIIIIII

  • Since when does the minority rule the majority? You might want to double check that American thing.

  • Since the Constitution was written, though its not so that the minority rules the majority but rather the minority is not ruled by the majority.

  • The idea is majority rule with minority protection, which often does not work out. Gay rights would be a great example of that now.

  • last white hope right thur. eh that nigga rick ross gettin out real soon. weed gonna be legal when all the facts come out

  • ..and now they all hate their president and don't trust their government...

    interesting........
