"Most of you have short memories. During Reagan's term, the homeless population exploded, money and funding was cut to the halfway houses and mental hospitals which dumped the most vulnerable among us right out on the street, swelling the already huge number of homeless even more. Tent cities were everywhere in the midwest. You couldn't get a job if your life depended on it which of course it did. You had families living in cars and in cardboard boxes under bypasses and alleyways. Funding was cut for home heating assistance leaving huge numbers of people without heat in the winter. And you think we should return to that do you? That's why Republicans have such a reputation for being heartless, cold sob's that are only for the rich. By all means lets give the millionaires more tax credit so they can hoard their money, just like they've done the last 10 years they had with the Bush tax cuts and let everyone else freeze to death, starve to death, and loose their homes, they can always live in their cars or out on the streets right? Anyone remember Reagan's famous quote to "pull yourselves up by your own bootstraps"? The best satirical cartoon at the time, and I don't remember who wrote it, was of a kid asking Reagan if he could loan him a pair of boots. When Reagan looked at the NY Times help wanted section and said there all kinds of jobs out there, and he couldn't understand why the people wouldn't work? All those jobs were highly technical, mostly computer science, long before there were pc's in every home. It took a highly specialized degree for those jobs. Now even with a specialized degree, there aren't jobs. We can't afford another Reagan. We need another FDR.
