These downvotes are unfortunate given this statement is objectively true.

I didn't downvote the person, but I did ask for clarification and got downvoted.

Can you explain your claim 'objectively true'? There are too many non-concrete nouns running around for me to be able to keep track of...

I'm sorry but I don't think the 80s are really something that can be explained to someone that didn't live through them, which I assume you didn't, otherwise you wouldn't be asking for clarification on Reaganomics.

I think the downvotes are coming from the lack of context accompanying the GP’s bold statements.

Not sure what's expected here. I mean, this is hardly the format for 20 page dissertations on lived history. I'm guessing these downvotes are coming from folks that are missing context because they're in their 20's and don't actually know anything about Reaganomics, what was proposed vs what the actual observed outcomes were, etc.
