Reagan problems when he was President

I got into a discussion the other day, I guess made a fool of myself. I mentioned that Reagan put us 3 trillion Dollars in debt. There happens to be a lady who is a pro Reaganite supporter. Get back to Reagan when he was president - he has a reputation that is infallible but go back to his problems when he was President. 1. He gave a tax break to the rich and that is what let in the huge increase . It is true that he spent Billions on National Defense but where did the money come from- pure borrowing and he never paid for the money spent. You can not give the rich a tax break and expect the bills to be paid. He had another problem that took a ton of money from the national debt and that was the Savings And Loan scandle( mispelled) wihci cost us at least 50 billion dollars. He built ships that the Navy did not have did not have sailors for. an if they did - they would not have money for the personal. I could go on said my piece and I guess I feel better it is too bad when I say something I hit people the wrong way. Oh well life is that way with the American people. Don
