   An argument can be made for both sides regarding Reagan good vs bad.   
   I was fresh out of college in my first job when Reagan was POTUS and   
   I remember certain basic middle class typical deductions that   
   went away.   
   Interest on credit cards and loans for one.   
   Personally I liked Reagan's foreign policy but TBH he wasn't great for my   
   bottom line.
