AK> Under Carter, the final one-year deficit we labored under was 73.8
billion dollars. Under Reagan, that ballooned to 273 billion dollars. Those
are the figures for the 1980 and 1986 single-year deficits (I don't have
later years handy), not the cumulative debt.
You people talk about "under Reagan" as if America were ruled by a
Monarchy. The subtleties of a representative democracy, inflicted with a
profoundly corrupt congress, just whiz right by you.
