(1,068 posts)My father ran an automotive electronics business that he started in the mid 1960's. Everything was going great. And then Reagan got elected. The early 1980's were a bitch. From there and right up to today the economy in the area where the store was got worse and worse. What did Reagan get for his eight years of trickle down economics? An aircraft carrier named after him.
What did Bill Clinton get for his eight years ? A "Go Fuck Yourself".
