We can always just follow the example of government and pass the problem to our kids and go take another vacation to Hawaii - on our HELOCs, of course.

Ronnie was a popular guy with the media, but he might be the most overrated president in history. He created a mountain of debt and made an arms for hostages deal with those badass Iranians; his 80s tenure saw the escalation of college tuitions out of sight and the birth of "political correctness" --with the help of Nancy and the Democrats. The power of labor unions was diminished and corporations started firing people as a way to improve their bottom line and raise their stock price. The result was a harsher environment for workers. How do I know? I know.
