Ignoring the fact that inflation adjusted income plummeted during two years of his presidency by more than any time in recorded US history. Which part of my post was a straw man? Was it where I said Reagan took over a 3.2 trillion dollar economy and borrowed 1.8 trillion against it? How much did ...

. Well my gosh, they look really good! How many jobs were created under Reagan? And to whom do you attribute the two recessions, if not Carter? If you blame Reagan, what specific Reagan policy caused them? In particular the 1982 recession, worst since the Great Depression? Did Reagan cause that...

That post was to goofy, not to you, and no - we cannot. We cannot - Goofy REFUSES to pick one set of data. Goofy insists on leaving his options open. He wants to be able to argue 1976 - 1980 when the numbers favor him that way, and use 1977 - 1981 when the numbers favor him THAT way. I insist on us...

We can use whatever years you want. You're not going to find anyway to spin it. Inflation adjusted income grew better under Reagan than it did under Carter, if it did at all. I, however, used 78-81 per the terms of your OP. Purely subjective. Carter's spending couldn't do anything to the economy...

If you look at the economy he took over, he did quite well. If you factor in the fraudulent gas shortage, he worked miracles. And remember - he didn't have trillions in borrowing to fall back on, as Reagan did....

I'm happy to argue Carter's numbers with you. Will you agree to use 76-80, or 77-81. Choose, and we can dialogue. Continue to dance, and we cannot....

We're not talking about Reagan's fiscal policies, military, or anything else. Your strawman was your attempting to address the simple point I made about Carter never having inflation lower than GDP growth with those things. As for income, it actually decreased during the Peanut Farmer's Presidency...
