Reagan actually increased taxe REVENUES (oddly by lowering taxes), and increased federal spending in MILITARY DEFENCE (WITHOUT no-bid contracts), but I can say that Reagan was a smart man to realize what was fucked up, he didn't come up with "Reaganomics" but rather based that name was given by the press who couldn't figure out the basic logic of not taxing people to death, his cabinet/lobbyists did quite frequently fuck up (eg: Meese and North for starts), and he was fortunate enough that Congress was too damned gridlocked to figure out that his concept PISSED IN THEIR RICEBOWLS.
I have no idea what the hell "Keynesian econmics" is, but the rate at which the national deficit soared during his administration is nothing compared to that of all three of his successors, and, yes, shit was wonderful.
I'm too lazy to back up my shit with sources, someone do it for me too.
