No, it isn't amusing; it's incorrect.  Reagan is not maintaining high
spending levels to "stimulate the economy", he is unable to get the
spending cuts he has requested, given the political realities of the
federal government.  If you want evidence, please refer to my previous
postings regarding the line-item veto, and TEFRA, and other examples
of the Congress protecting the spending structure it has evolved over
the years.
