Big quibble here.  Bob used the phrase "Borrow and Spend" not tax and spend.  Reagan did cut taxes but he kept spending the same, when he should have slashed spending.  Reagan, Bush I and Bush II ran up the debt (granted no near as much as Obama did) by either cutting or keeping taxes the same while continuing to spend.

Honestly the government needs to slash spending.  The new Budget Blueprint is a start...I think it should go further there's whole departments I want gutted but its a start.

You are correct.  I blew it.  FDR through JFK would be tax and spend.  Reagan, Bush Bush would be borrow and spend.

I'm more inclined to tax more than spend less.  We've been cutting taxes and services since the unravelling.  The younger generations just aren't into paying any price, bearing any burden and meeting any hardship as the GIs were, as everybody was before the National Malaise struck home.  It's all selfishness and privilege to them.

I'm a Nomad so I'm inclined to slashing spending.  We can keep taxes the same.  There is much waste in government.  It starts with Obamacare and works backward to the New Deal.

I've often likened the turnings to phases of construction.  The 4T is the demonlition phase usually.  Instead what has been tried is a patch here, a patch there, eventually the whole structure will collapse in on itself when the whole works should have been bulldozed years ago.
