Reagan’s Legacy: Homelessness ...
@GatekeepKen And I'm just gonna reup this part again to emphasize it: "Gorsuch sa[id]... that she was holding back more than $6 million in Federal funds to clean up the Stringfellow Acid Pits toxic waste site near Los Angeles to avoid helping the Senate campaign of former Gov. Jerry Brown... a Democrat.
"The White House then abandoned its court claim that the documents related to this incident could not be subpoenaed by Congress because they were covered by executive privilege...." #FuckReagan
Have you ever noticed that many posts bemoaning the problems in the US state that things got worse due to #Reagan?
Dark, dark true story I believe! We were army kids, friggin 18 at enlistment, and we were in Manheim like 20 miles down the road from Frankfurt where Christiana was (supposedly) and, yes, some folks had a Messiah complex and went up there and tried to save cute heroin chicks from the street. I didn't but I felt bad not at least trying but it was 1984-87 and drugs were massively stigmatized AND HIV was arriving and being used to dishonorably discharge people.

@johnmacintosh 1983 was a hell of a year! Would disco survive? Would the earth and the human species survive the nuclear holocaust that reagan and thatcher desired? Were gigantic belts and sculptured hair for women the new norm? Did men require parachute pants and a million bucks before age 30 from now on?
ALL OPEN QUESTIONS IN 1983!!!!!
