Inflation went way down when he was in office and stayed pretty good until recently. Granted, that was possibly because of Paul Volker, who was appointed by Carter... Also, there were still problems in the 70s, even if Reaganomics made things worse. From what I've heard, the late 40s-60s were the more prosperous period. --- -J2K Currently Streaming: Evil, Shogun, Avatar TLA, Homeland, Star Trek: Discovery <cite>Justin2Krelian posted [p:980008746] in Woman with...
