Dec 2017

Reagan dropped the top tax rate and we got a recession 3yrs later, Bush dropped the taxes on the wealthy and corporations and we got 3yrs later another republican depression; Harding dropped the top tax rate in the 20s and we got th republican great depression. Ryan is stupid and he's lying out his butt.
Is anybody really buying Ryan's nonsense?
