Joe Sixpack, you still do not understand/see HOW the cold war was won?

I know you are referring to outspending the USSR militarily and sending them to the wall financially.
But that was going to happen sooner or later anyway. Russia was never anything more than a second world nation on steroids.
Even if you believe that tactic was necessary, Reagan could have outspent the Russians and jacked up taxes to cover the bill but he didn't. My discussion was about deficit spending.
