Reagan’s Big Lie will be a series of posts documenting how Reagan’s declaration that “government is not a solution to our problem, government is the problem” not only distorted American history but paralyses our government today.
Introduction: Exposing Reagan’s Big Lie
Since the 1980s Washington politicians have urged voters to turn their backs on their neighbors. Glenn firmly believes that this radical ideology has undermined the foundation of our American democracy. In the Preamble, Americans made a promise to each other. It clearly states that “We the people” will work to create a “more perfect Union.” Americans must renew that promise. My goal is simple. Let's stop demonizing each other. Let's talk about works. We can't do that unless we educate ourselves. From my personal experience, not many people want to. It's easier to call names and throw stones. We can have a brighter tomorrow.
