  1. The United States of America is an incorporated business, not a nation-state. Same can be said with every state, city, county etc. They’re all corporations who don’t have any responsibility to the people.

  2. A lot of folks talk about the messed up U.S agricultural system we have in place today thanks to Ronald Reagan policies. Family farms were financially destroyed and replaced by big agricultural businessmen running corn and soybean plantations. Even many family owned ranches were replaced by disastrous factory style ranches owned by multinational corporations who couldn’t care less about public health.

  3. Not if you live in a highly federalized American empire.

  4. Ronald Reagan has always been a brilliant actor. He fooled many with his good looks, smiles, and “patriotic” speeches.

  5.  @floragraves5167  The issue isn’t just Ronald Reagan. By the 1980s, America became consumers first and producers second. After America burned out all our savings/investments after WW2. Americans were encouraged to borrow ridiculous sums of money to pay for a lifestyle that America could not afford.
