From the archives: Ronald Reagan's death on June 5, 2004

[@misterakt]

I remember the day his coffin was brought back to DC for the last time. My friend and I were playing outside when my father (who died a few months later himself) told us to come inside and watch the news. He said "I want you kids to always remember this moment in history" and I still remember every detail to this day.

[@AU88]

I cast my first vote for Reagan in 1984. Four years later, I was commissioned a second lieutenant (reserve) in the US Army, with his signature on the document. Ronald Reagan, HE WHO WON THE COLD WAR & FIRST OF HIS NAME, will always be my president.

[@RADIUMGLASS]

Reagan along with Congress ended the Mental Health Services Act of 1980. He ended Roosevelt era regulations that kept Wall Street in check for 50 years. His policies are still affecting us negatively today.

[@climeaware4814]

yes his policies to the mentally disabled and deregulating the stock market has now turned the stoc market almost into a criminal organization. The reasons why countries like Denmark, Norway have a STRONG middle class is due to its unions. He fired the ATC controlers. I met the daughter of one of them. He left usa and likely gave up his American residency "revoked his citizenship" and became a Canadian and continued as a ATC controler in Canada.

[@Roger_MooreFan]

Context: Social Security was expected to default in 1983, because the Cost of Living adjustments were tied to inflation while in-payments were tied to wages. As real wages declined and inflation increased during the 70s and early 80s Social Security was on the brink of collapse. The BI-Partisan Social Security Amendments of 1983 accelerated payroll tax increases, increased employment, increased the retirement age and yes made 50% of benefits taxable income. After these BIPARTISAn reforms Social Security not only survived but created large surpluses. Congress+Reagan saved it!

Watching this gives me the chills. The greatest President of our lifetime, hands down. When young people who don't remember him see him speak, they cannot fathom that a man of his caliber every sat in that chair.

Only Obama came close to Reagan. but noone will ever come close or surpass the best president ever

[@hostile7teen]

Reagan's policies set in motion to what has led us to many of the prvoblems we have today. The wealth gap got bigger, welfare programs were gutted, less taxes for the rich, avoiding the AIDS crisis, racist policies, snd and the failed war on drugs all happened on his watch. But he was a good actor who could sell it to America and Americans ate it up.

[@vincentgiasullo]

Wealth gap? Are you a socialist? And what racist policies?

Reagan visited Madrid to kiss the ring of the Franco fascist monster and said “Americans fought in your civil war but they were on the wrong side.” they should have supported the Nazis and Mussolini’s fascists according to a Reagan”.
