8. I tell these types that the rich betrayed Reagan....

I say Reagan believed in VOLUNTARY income redistribution but that's turned out to be like "self regulating".

The rich claimed they WANTED to increase wages for their workers and hire more people but couldn't afford it because their taxes were too high. The rich were supposed to "trickle down" the wealth they were getting from Reagan but they pocketed it instead.

That hits conservatives in a new way where their worship of the rich is pitted against their love of all things Reagan.

Guess which they pick?
