Uh... WHO was President at the time? You might do better crediting Reagan
with balancing the budget via trickle-down. Just ignore the fact that it
began 15 years prior, that few believed in it, and that the deficit under
him grew astronomically.

Aren't you thinking of George Bush? Oh, wait. HE didn't raise taxes--he
promised he wouldn't--we read his lips--remember? Yeah. It must have been
the Democrat-dominated congress.
But WHO was president when the Dow and NASDAQ rose to all-time highs? Or
should we credit the Republican congress? Or Alan Greenspan? Didn't Reagan
appoint him? Yeah. Credit Greenspan.
And WHO was president when unemployment shrunk to its lowest rate in many
years? Ah, it doesn't matter. Just credit the Republicans again. We all know
how much they value jobs for the lower classes. And health care for them,
for that matter. And public schools. And yadda yadda...
This is EXACTLY why I majored in and taught math. It's impossible to twist
mathematical facts to "prove" your point.
