[edit]I believe we should delete this page as the Reaganomics page is already fine itself. For now I will edit it though.
- That's a good point. I'd have no objection to making this page a redirect to Reaganomics or presidency of Ronald Reagan. Orser67 (talk) 23:15, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
- One potential objection could be that some people who want to know what the Reagan tax cuts were, would need this page. But as you said, a redirect to the Reagonomics page which would also explain it. PS, thank you for your work on Wikipedia Mr. Orser67. CBatteries (talk) 22:29, 21 April 2019 (EST)
If anyone gets to see this, I am considering adding the "Reagan Series" to this page. Is this something that should be done or no? CBatteries (talk) 16:16, 27 May 2019 (UTC)
The phrase in the 2nd paragraph "Despite all this, the tax cuts changed the US for the better or the worse." should be edited, as it is currently contradictory nonsense. I don't know what to replace it with, otherwise I would do it myself. Suggestions? Yakostovian (talk) 19:02, 27 June 2019 (UTC)
- I expanded this page, and looking back, I think it was rushed and there might be more parts like these. But onto the quote. Something like "These tax cuts showed many changes in the American economy. Some of the changes were for the better; however, some were for the worst." could work.

BLAME GAME
[edit]As humans, there is a penchant for pointing fingers. We point at Reagan's Tax Cuts as the catalyst that began the 40 years of stagnant wages in America. We blame "Trickle-Down Economics" for the financial position we're in.
However, that's not where the blame lies. The blame lies with the legislators in office now. Yesterday we could have blamed the officials in office then; 10 years ago we could have blamed the officials in charge then; etc. The power to change the tax code lies in the now; pointing fingers at politicians in the past is redundant & not a solution to the current problem. The Congress in session now are the only people that can change it & we need to constantly ask them why they aren't changing it. 107.242.113.51 (talk) 16:29, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
