    I remember the day his coffin was brought back to DC for the last time. My friend and I were playing outside when my father (who died a few months later himself) told us to come inside and watch the news. He said "I want you kids to always remember this moment in history" and I still remember every detail to this day.

      yes his policies to the mentally disabled and deregulating the stock market has now turned the stoc market almost into a criminal organization. The reasons why countries like Denmark, Norway have a STRONG middle class is due to its unions. He fired the ATC controlers. I met the daughter of one of them. He left usa and likely gave up his American residency "revoked his citizenship" and became a Canadian and continued as a ATC controler in Canada.

    Ronald Reagan has long been one of my heroes. He did a lot during his presidency, but it wasn't his politics that have led me to admire him. Reagan is one of my heroes because of all that he accomplished during his life. He started out being a popular and successful actor; he then became President of the Screen Actors Guild, then Governor of California, then two (2) terms as President of the United States. In my mind, that's one HELL of a life that few people could ever hope to match. I have tremendous respect for Ronald Reagan.

      Context: Social Security was expected to default in 1983, because the Cost of Living adjustments were tied to inflation while in-payments were tied to wages. As real wages declined and inflation increased during the 70s and early 80s Social Security was on the brink of collapse. The BI-Partisan Social Security Amendments of 1983 accelerated payroll tax increases, increased employment, increased the retirement age and yes made 50% of benefits taxable income. After these BIPARTISAn reforms Social Security not only survived but created large surpluses. Congress+Reagan saved it!
