BIG Question: Was it the right move to spend all that money on the millitary?
Summary: Ronald Reagan was the 40th president to be in office and he was a former hollywood actor. He saw the USSR as an evil empire so avoid contact with them as much as possible. He also increased millitary spending dramatically as part of the renewed arms race. Reaganomics was his policy to outspend the soviets and do what they did, just better alot better.
