Ronald Reagan: Raised Taxes And The Debt Ceiling
Eleven tax increases, 18 debt limit hikes, the record shows.
Please remind Republicans when invoke Reagan's name that he was not whom they have mythologized him to be.
A forum, news site and archive begun in February, 2007 about politics and the environment in Wisconsin. And elsewhere.
Eleven tax increases, 18 debt limit hikes, the record shows.
Please remind Republicans when invoke Reagan's name that he was not whom they have mythologized him to be.

I would absolutely support raising taxes. There are so many individuals and families that pay no federal or state taxes that it is ridiculous. All of these people should have their tax rates raised so they are paying at least something for all of the benefits they receive.
Thanks for the opportunity James :)
If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it. ~Ronald Reagan
The full (and therefore ACCURATE) quote:
"The GOVERNMENT'S VIEW of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it."
~R. Reagan 1986
