[Reagan Man]

In JFK's day he was strong on defense and believed in the use of tax cuts to stimulate economic growth. But even in the early 1960`s, Democrat's weren't supportive of limited government. I don't know JFK's position on abortion, but knowing his active sex life, I would venture a guess he was involved in some forced abortions on his "girlfriends" through the years. On many social issues, JFK was a died in the wool liberal. He was supportive of FDR's New Deal and Truman's Fair Deal, which included a National Heathcare program for all Americans. Truman was ahead of his time. I'm glad that program was DOA.

Yes, Keynesian economics. "Economic theories of John Maynard Keynes who advocated government monetary and fiscal programs intended to stimulate business activity and increase employment."

Milton Friedman was one of Reagan's many economic advisors. He was a fiscal conservative, but called himself a political libertarian. Reagan supported supply-side economics. Reductions in income tax rates to stimulate earnings, savings, and investment. That would expand economic activity and incraese the total taxable income.

Kennedy was a Catholic of the 1960s. Not a chance he was anything less than pro-life.

He was supportive of FDR's New Deal and Truman's Fair Deal

So was Ronald Reagan.

Milton Friedman was one of Reagan's many economic advisors. He was a fiscal conservative, but called himself a political libertarian. Reagan supported supply-side economics. Reductions in income tax rates to stimulate earnings, savings, and investment. That would expand economic activity and incraese the total taxable income.

Yes, those were all Friedman's policies. He is considered - and considers himself - a neo-liberal. In fact, he is considered the father of neo-liberal economics in the modern era. that is to say, since it became known as "neo-liberal" as opposed to just "liberal" in the classical 19th century sense.
