The 80’s – days of Reaganomics and the Supply Side Economy. As a reminder that all was not bliss and Supply Side was doing a bit of backtracking even on the parts of its staunchest advocates, here is an interview with Treasury Secretary Donald Regan from Face The Nation, discussing the latest tax bill.
