Reagan was the biggest piece of shit ever. So many awful awful things are because of his demented ass.
No it wasnt
If the point is to help the poor, reduce their tax rate rather than encouraging tip culture by giving tips favorable treatment. I don’t see why tips shouldn’t be taxed just like any other income. Unless of course the business requested them via a tip screen, in which case they should be taxed 4x as much.
TIL that social security earnings are taxed. Unbelievable
It’s honestly a coin flip as to who was worse, Nixon or Reagan.
I think the criminal acts that Nixon got busted for put him about Reagan on this one. Of course both of them also passed laws that continue to have devastating effects.
Definitely Reagan. Nixon signed the EPA into existence and oversaw the final stages of the Apollo program to get us to the moon. He also ended the Vietnam war (after escalating it, but he did end it).
Reagan… gave a speech in front of the Berlin Wall? Said no to drugs? Didn’t turn the Earth into a radioactive hellhole? I don’t know. I honestly can’t think of anything I can give him any credit for as president.
Nixon didn’t just escalate Vietnam, he sabotaged Johnson’s attempt to end it so that he could run on ending the war. And then he waffled on it after he won the election because he realized it would make him the president that lost the Vietnam war (which is doubly stupid because, at least from my perspective, “lost Vietnam” isn’t even a part of his legacy, despite him being one of the least popular presidents in recent history).
Believe me, I’m not defending Nixon except to say that he wasn’t as bad as Reagan.
