re: #158 Dark_Falcon

To equate Reagan & Thatcher with those two is serious moral confusion. They deserve respect instead, for steering their nations through the danger-filled penultimate phase of the Cold War. That the United States and United Kingdom emerged from the 1980’s intact and with their wealth and power increased was due in large part to the wise leadership of Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher.

No it’s not. If either had had the ability they’d have lined up union people against the wall. They both lucked out that the Russians ran out of money before they totally destroyed our economies with their “trickle down” ignorance. As it was we are still suffering the damage done to the US economy by that &^%$$$$^&*&*^%$$ Reagan.
