Note it says ... TAX LOAD ... such is entirely different from "Reagan raised the federal income taxes" -- a claim not made by me NOR demonstrated otherwise by you.
This (tax load INCREASE) was demonstrated for you numerous times. INSTEAD you want to cry, pout, stomp-your-feet and spew fallacy as though it will make that reality go away.

Put the crack rock pipe down MJ. You make copy and paste ridiculous statements from the likes of Sheldon Richmon which have no substance and are clearly inaccurate and void of any foundation or truthfulness.....When you make statements like Ronald Reagan increased taxes by 65%, you sound like an idiot Moonbat caught in the proverbial headlights.

To: politicalforum < [email protected]>
As I mentioned earlier, I am currently reading Reagan's diaries. Despite Stockman's purported "memory"; (and I have not read Mr. Stockman's book....."Yet") Stockman, along with others in the Reagan cabinet were constantly pushing for tax increases, which Reagan refused to do.
Again, I haven't read Stockman's book, and only perused Goin's "Book Review", but if Stockman's book is as Mr. Goins is portraying, then Mr. Stockman has forgotten that under Reagan's economic policies, the Nation went from double digit inflation, double digit interest rates, (almost 16 percent prime in 1980!) double digit unemployment, (when such statistics were kept in a more realisitic, believeable manner); to the following:
5.4% unemployment (1987-1988); http://www.davemanuel.com/historical-unemployment-rates-in-the-united-states.php
3.9% inflation rate, (1987-1988) http://www.usinflationcalculator.com/inflation/historical-inflation-rates/
Prime Interest Rate, 1987-1988: 8.1% - 9.0%; http://mortgage-x.com/general/indexes/contract_rate_history.asp
I'd say that Mr. Reagan's legacy speaks for itself.
=======================
I think it is very fair to say that I have always been able to support my rhetoric with data and fact. When I haven't been able to do so, I have admitted as much.
All you know how to do is bash conservative libertarians who don't subscribe to that wacko fruitbasket who thinks they are somehow libertarians, when in fact a closer distinction or brand of Lew Rockwell/Justin Raimondo/Sheldon Richmond would be "Socialistic Anarchists".

- "My yet-to-be-learned lesson -- and perhaps that of Rep. Hubbard -- is that there are certain topics or arguments that one should not bring up in the presence of children or those with little understanding. Both might see that explaining a phenomenon is the same as giving it moral sanction or justification. It's as if one's explanation that the independent influence of gravity on a falling object is to cause it to accelerate at 32 feet per second per second could be interpreted as giving moral sanction and justification to gravity." -- Walter E.
