Jesus Politics: More on Ronald Reagan: "By 1982 California cities were inundated with homeless people, with more than 30 percent of them having mental disabilities. Turns out that Reagan, as governor, had pretty much dismantled the mental health system (among other things) in California.

As Reagan's social policies were implemented in the early 80s, the rich got richer and the poor got - well, precious little, if anything. One columnist for the San Francisco Chronicle summarized Reagan's policies as 'unleashing greed.'"

If that is the Reagan years, then how do we describe this administration? I think revising the term greed to that it is now a glowing positive.
