The best clips of the 1980 Debate between Reagan and loser president Jimmah Cartah! I think this illustrates the differences between capitalism and socialism and shows that Reagan is not to blame for the problems of the 80s but inherited the problems from the left. I wish there were more documentaries on how terrible things were in this country before Reagan took office. Sick of know nothing millennials and Generation X'ers and commie baby boomers who know nothing of how bad things really were and nothing about how things work posting lies on Youtube and elsewhere!

I was teaching university-level econ courses during the Carter/Reagan years. Few people remember the 21% prime rate during Jimmy's reign, or the rampant inflation during the Nixon-Carter years. Milton Friedman was a behind-the-scenes adviser for Reagan. If you get a chance, read his book Free To Choose, or watch the TV program by the same name...excellent.

Reagan's economic plan was:

lower taxes
fewer regulations
controlling of the increase in the money supply
increased government spending on defense
controlling welfare spending
decreased price controls (on oil)
lower interest rates (but still high enough to attract foreign investment and lending)

This plan started to work after only 7 months, and led to strong economic growth, which allowed development of a potent military force,which led to a strong negotiating position in our confrontation with the Soviet Union, which led to Reagan winning the cold war.

Obummer's plan has led to stagnation, and economic decline and decay.
