This is sobering in the light of where we are now! When you hear the numbers that Reagan uses you need to have a little historical perspective: a dollar in 1964 would be worth almost 7 dollars to day according to the cost of living inflator. But listen to the numbers and notice that expenses in many areas have grown by even greater multiples.
Watching this these many years later puts me once more in mind of the politics of personal destruction exercised by the Democrats against Barry Goldwater. If there was ever a dishonorable campaign it was that waged by Johnson and the Democrats against Goldwater. The slide towards tyranny has continued since then and we are perilously close to the tipping point.
