As long as "funded a war" is defined as shipping arms to afghanistan and arms/insecticide precursers to iraq you are correct.
Those actions were adders to the discussion on reaganomics.
At the end of the day and on an outcome basis we are not better off. The trickle down economic plan for current votors to defer the operating costs of our country to future votors was great in the short term but is killing us in the long term.
As stated before:
1. Our country did not become great by settling the west for a few months then flipping the property for profit.
2. Our industries were not built by traders who bought oil and commodity contracts then flipped them a few months later for profits.
3. The value of our country was not created by trading firms that artificially manipulated individual stocks then flipped them a few months later for profits.
Thats what reagan left us with. A short-term quick profit america - all funded by future taxpayers. Can you say "flip that house?" Love that show LOL
We have enemies we need to deal with them ourselves. Before Reagan, that's what we did. Now we transfer weapons and money to pay future enemies to deal with current enemies.
Actually paying future enemies to deal with current enemies is a lot like having future taxpayers foot the bill for current costs. An emerging pattern? LOL
