There has been 6 presidents since Reagan, how is our current economy his fault?
Because actions can have long term consequences, and fixing those consequences can take a long time. Especially when people invested in the status quo hold a lot of power.
He's not solely responsible, but he was a gatekeeper of a lot of shit that was let loose during his tenure.
I mean there is like 100 other things I can think of that are more responsible for todays economy than a president from 40 years ago. That would be like Reagan blaming Hitler for an economic slump.
