Why do liberals love "trickle down economics" when their guy is doing the trickling?

No, the facts don't hurt at all. Reagan had much more leeway when he was in office. The nation wasn't involved in two wars that were being kept off the books and he had plenty of room to move tax rates downward.

Also, with interest rates in the double-digits it was possible for the Federal Reserve to bring rates down because interest rates were so high they'd created a feedback loop. In addition, the country still had a strong manufacturing base and medical costs represented a much smaller portion of national spending.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
