Lyle I hate break it to you,I was a teenager under Reagan,Hinkley should have taken more target practice first

Leave it to you to show how much couth you lack...I wouldn't ever say anything like that about any Democrat President no matter how much I disagree with them or dislike them.

Maybe Squeeky From could have used a loaded gun as well
Sorry,one a-hole in a suit doesnt equal millions of lives ruined by greed ruinous policies,Id have taken a shot at Pinochet and Stalin as well,you apparently would like me to know what swell guys they were.
Just because they put an eagle on your podium,doesnt make you any less of a bastard
Theres a reason theres snipers on top of the White House 24/7,they know what you dont

your opinion on Reagan is greatly skewed and whether you liked him and his policies or not there's no reason to compare him to those thugs.



Kirkland we're nowhere near the Great Depression levels...when you see people breaking apart billboards for firewood and standing in soup lines then call me

Really?
Remember Lebanon?
Remember Grenada
Remember Iran Contra(where he very specifically pissed all over constitutional law,to sell drugs,and arms to terrorists)
Remember James Watt
Remember Ed Meese?(his Scrooge was misunderstood comment is still a classic)
Remember his speech to the medal of honor winners where he quoted a movie script like it was real life

Remember him saying people on food stamps where buying vodka,even though it wasnt technically possible
Remember any of that?
I do
Ive got more,by far,but it will take a very long while

I fail to see where he lined people up and shot them or sent political prisoners off to gulags therefore I fair to see where he is like Stalin or Pinochet.

This is the second time in twenty years that the GOP deregulated the banking industry and then bailed them out. Both times they risked triggering a serious recession/depression.

There were serious problems before any deregulation took place

Explain these serious problems.

Well the government basically telling banks to lend money to people who everyone knew wouldn't be able to pay it back

The government isn't telling anybody to do anything. Both Republican and Democratic leaders have pushed for more minority and low-income housing. Here's George Bush doing just that :

"And so we need more counseling and more education to make sure our fellow citizens know what it means to buy a home and can get comfortable with the idea of buying a home. And so we've doubled the amount of money available for community-based programs, faith-based programs -- (applause) -- to be able to brief their parishioners and/or their fellow citizens about the opportunities and the hope and what it takes to be able to purchase a home."


But minority and low-income housing is something that everybody since jimmy Carter has pushed for. What happened over the past few years was something else entirely. And it was literally the last four years. This took four and a bit years and the Reagan-era one took three and a bit. That's how long it takes for greed to overtake the financial industry when they're given the opportunity to make a lot of money.
