It's amazing that we can't have a discussion here about economics without the posts boiling down to this:

- The guys from my party walk on water

- The other guys are the spawn of Beelzebub

Any thread that begins with a quote that Reagan fixed the economy in two years is a political thread, not an economic discussion, since the entire premise is based on whether or not that (silly) statement is true.

Reagan got us started down the debt path we are on by tripling the debt.

Yes, he cheerily signed into law the budgets that were passed by an overwhelmingly Democratic Congress.

He could have used that same pen and vetoed it.

That is what they mean by making him the spawn of Beelzebub.
If he only held us back....

Good thing Bush II and his six years of Republican-controlled congress were able to right the ship.
