Response to Comments: /TotW/Reagan_taxes.html

You don't seem to have read my article. Ronald Reagan wanted to shrink the relative size of the government: to reduce federal taxes and spending as shares of GDP.

In spite of substantial legislative success in his first year, it hasn't worked out that way. But to point out that taxes are a higher share of GDP than before Reagan took office is not to make an ideological attack. When I make an ideological attack you will know it...
