As for Regan, let's start with a quick, off the top of my head summary: Trickle-down economics Iran-Contra Star Wars Massive movement of money into the private military defense sector Heartless response to AIDS epidemic that cost millions of lives James Watts Dick Cheney Dismembering government regulations that have allowed for the blossoming of corporate consolidation and theft Dismantling of regulations to safeguard the environment Summary disbandment of the air traffic controllers union Massive outsourcing of jobs to other countries due to his fast track trade agreement authority S&L debacle Support of Latin American dictators Arming Saddam Hussein Massive increase in debt I could think of a lot more but there is a starting list off the top of my head.
