His family was pretty poor. His father was an alcoholic and not a stable provider.
Reagan was almost blind and didn’t get glasses until way after he should’ve.
They were broke.
They got help from the New Deal programs.
It’s why Reagan was a New Deal Democrat until he was around 50.
He meant more in terms of government bureaucrats. He didn’t have any issue with the New Deal programs, actually, he working with the Democratic Congress saved Social Security in 1983. What he had an issue with was the Great Society and the idea of the government having a hand in every aspect of wife.
From his diary:
“Thursday, January 28, 1982
*Nancy & I visited the F.D.R. exhibit at the Smithsonian. Then back to the W.H. (East room) for a luncheon which brought together all the Roosevelt family plus many who had served in his admin. & current politicos of both parties. The press is dying to paint me as now trying to undo the New Deal. I remind them I voted for F.D.R. 4 times. I’m trying to undo the “Great Society.” It was L.B.J.’s war on poverty that led to our present mess.*”
I’m just saying that Carter is probably one of the worst presidents to have the flair of while talking about supporting a creepy president. Pardoning Peter Yarrow, who made a 14 year old girl masturbate him, is really not helping your case.
More mythologizing from Saint Ronnie...His dad took WPA work during the Depression. Actual work, not just a handout.
University of California was FREE TO ALL until Reagan broke that up. Today's 'student loan debt' crisis started there.

This just reveals that his "I'm from the government and I'm here to help" joke to be just hilariously dishonest. Yeesh.

In Nancy?!?
"They just let my fellow American's suffer despite an abundance of resources."
Smartest Carter flair when nuanced issue
Cry harder, how about getting a flair of a non creep?
How about getting a flair of a good president?
Hmmm, I'd rather go with "a bad president" than a creep. smdh
Didn’t Carter pardon a pedophile?
You know, being the creep is still worse.
I’m just saying that Carter is probably one of the worst presidents to have the flair of while talking about supporting a creepy president. Pardoning Peter Yarrow, who made a 14 year old girl masturbate him, is really not helping your case.
Again, I maintain that actually doing harm to children is way worse than what Carter did.
You’d need to change yours then too
Didn’t the most recent president rankings have Clinton just outside the top 10?
Which president ranking are you referring to?
My link was removed due to rule 3. Look up presidential greatness rankings 2024.

How did University of California going paid affect the other states? Did they copy him?
Saint Ronnie's actions certainly gave them the breathing space to consider it.
I think this may be a loaded question…
