    Actually, it was Clinton. Clinton forced banks to give out mortguage loans to everyone, even the ones who could not afford one. Therefore, foreclosures increased and bingo, economic turmoil. Regan taxed less, allowing more spending and hiring, therefore stimulating the economy.

  • @JTEsterkamp

    Nope it was FDR and Nixon that really started the damage.

  • @LangeTheThird

    lol nice try. it's media propaganda. obama's job-killing policies are as clear as the nose on your face

  • @srpenquino Obama created more jobs in his first year than Bush did in eight. I'm sorry, statistics don't lie.

  • This is where it all began. The disparity between rich and poor in this country has rapidly grown since this moment. Reagan started the damage, but he certainly wasn't the last person to cause it. Yes his plan worked in the short term. In the long term however he damaged us for generations to come.

  • @MrPrymeone

    How did trickle down economics not work? In a nutshell, people were taxed less, allowing them to hire more and spend more, ergo stimulating the economy.

  • And none of this bullshit worked

  • @deeppurple28 ~5-7% GDP growth. From 1982-1986. How you doin Obama?!

     Besides how can you call cutting individual income tax "trickle down"? LOLiberals!

  • are you guys kidding? the entire platform of the Democratic Party strategy absolutely depends on the electorate being not informed, ignorant and easily swayed by emotion.

    If all the electorate were intelligent and informed, the Democratic Party wouldn't stand a chance.

  • Fuck this moron's trickle down effect!
