    He allowed the regular guy into the stock market. He created a new patriotism that exists today. He was anti liberal which governed the stagnant 70's and anti veteran sentiment at the time. He, Ronald Reagan, was the new beginning that we live in today . He simply was the greatest president of the modern era.

      Cancerously disagree, this guy “Reganomics” made wealth inequality explode when he left hence his VP saying “Voodoo Economics.” ( I hysterically took Voodoo as a persona on how much I hated Regan). He argued that Corporations are as the same as human tax payers (they’re not), he legalized stock buybacks (a threat to democracy itself), he ignored science (ignored the AIDS epidemic), and he wanted to mix religion & government (Which is the one of top three anti-American things).
      He originally loved and admired New Deal Democrat policies, and he ended as the antithesis of it. I’m sure FDR told him to “Go to hell.”

    21:20 her politics are showing. Total homeless back then was around 320-350k. Even today with our tent cities it's about 600k.

      More like your politics are showing. Why would she bring up today's homeless population when the entire documentary is about REAGAN'S presidency? And even if your numbers are correct, the US population was 235 million in 1984, it's 335 million now. More people equals a higher number of homelessness. So basically everything you wrote was wrong.

      @@andyman2583 my point was even with more people today, it's still not a million. Her claim of a million additional homeless is absurd. Your desire to declare someone wrong about numbers, instead of looking up some ballpark figures in 30 seconds is a bit mental.

    Trying to ever so subtly tie Ronald Reagan in with the whacko narrow minded people that stormed the Capitol for Trump is an absurd assertion 🙄. Do better!

      His policies would explode homeless when he left, and ironically it hurt the most in his home state. Regan is definitely America’s cancer that won’t go away.

      Here's a little trivia for ya, you say President Reagan was a "sane Republican". Yet the truth is that before President Trump was the embodiment of fascist ideology in the mind of a leftist, that title was held by every single Republican on the National political stage, since Eisenhower. Even democrat propagandists couldn't bring themselves to accuse President Eisenhower of being a nazi. Today's democrat/socialist masterminds would do that with a straight face and not a hint of irony.
