Technically speaking, yes. Congress makes the budget, not the President. Well, at least that's how it was at one time. What the new Rules of Tyranny are, I'm not entirely clear on at this point in time.

Sure, no doubt. But he had a Democratic Congress so I suspect veto or not the same things would have went through, only without his tax cuts and such.

Not really defending him per se so much as noting that we often forget who presumably controls (controlled?) the purse strings.

At this point it's academic though. Ancient history. This is the new empire. Quaint concepts like budgets and restraint/responsibilities do not apply.

What concerns me about Reagan was his drive to put into hyperdrive the expansion of the military complex mechanism.

Do you remember RR from memory or were you too young and are getting your info from second hand sources?

You see, back during the Great Helmsman's tenure we had this small problem called the CCCP, USSR, Union of Soviet Socialist Republics or what RR used to call "The Evil Empire" Remember?

Post Viet Nam, under Carter our military was in shambles. RR changed that and broke the back of the Soviet communists. You sleep at night in a world made pretty safe from nuclear war because of Reagan.

You should be grateful

In hindsight, the CCCP, USSR, Union of Soviet Socialist Republics or what RR used to call "The Evil Empire" threat was also overblown.

The USSR had thermonuclear tipped ICBMs both land based and on subs pointed at us. The Warsaw Pact had the largest concentration of tanks in the history of modern warfare pointed at western Europe. Cuba had (and still has) tactical nukes pointed at south Florida and Nikita Khrushchev said "We will bury you".

You call that a minor threat?

They were no more threat to rule the world than Saddam Hussein ever was.

Nonsense, Eric. Consider yourself placed on double secret probation until you burden yourself with the facts.

China hated them back then too.
During the cold war the Chinese were still using bugle calls and human wave attacks. They didn't get accurate nukes until Clinton sold them the technology.
