I believe Paul Krugman would have a field day with that logic it was Raygun's deregulation that sarted what we see today.Carter was dealimg with alot of issues like a bloated military budget that is worse today and Barry rampimg up the war is insane.But the darling of the tea party Mrs.Palin loves to get her war on so you figure.I personally like to keep the troops out of an unjust war gives us more MMJ(no PTSD or other injuries)plus we have no right to kill people for their resources.
