Politics and Money

[lesgetrich]

Reagan had to deal with the worst economy since the Depression and got us out of it in 9 months.

He did it by raising taxes and spending government money (mostly on defense unfortunately). The deficit went from about $60 billion/year to over $400 billion per year. The Teabagger Republicans in congress have steadfastly refused to let Obama do either of these things since 2010. Check out the facts.

The only job creators are customers. When government spends less money you have fewer people with money and fewer customers (thus fewer jobs).
