REAGAN MYTHS
Advertisements [?]
Fiscal Conservative Blarney baloney Rhetoric not fact

8 years As Governor and increased state Revenues by most in history.
Taxed everything but BJ in Hollwood. Nancy objected. Her hobby.

Carter gave him a 600B Budget. Increased it by 80%
Carter gave him less than 1000B of Debt. Increased it by 183%.

Submitted 8 budgets for over 7000B.
Govt spent 6066B in prior 50 years-1930 to 1980
More in 8 than prior 50? Conservative?

King of Spend and Borrow till Bush II.

Cut Carter record of 218,000 net new jobs per month to 175,000.

You are no conservative to increase spending by 80% and Debt by 183%

137 members of administration investigated and record number found guilty

Involved us in 4 conflicts

There is not one fiscal fact except stock market increase to rate Reagan as above average..
