Slick Willy
Clinton also "ended welfare as we know it" and hereby doubled the extreme poverty rate in America. — Oxyaena Harass  21:29, 1 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Yeah, that'll go in there. 21:45, 1 December 2019 (UTC)

Homestead Acts
I disagree the "Homestead Acts" were a good thing, since they provided further incentive to the centuries long American Indian Holocaust. It was good for everyone but the Natives so to speak. See the Dakota Rising of 1862 for some context. — Oxyaena Harass  21:39, 1 December 2019 (UTC)
 * You are indeed correct on that, although I'll probably add a mention of that on the "bad" side instead of removing it from the "good" column. That's my Kansas bias showing. 21:45, 1 December 2019 (UTC)

You left out a guy
Where's your entry on Benjamin Harrison? 20:45, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Oh shit. 20:46, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Had no idea until right this second. Thanks. 20:46, 4 September 2020 (UTC)

Anyone who calls Reagan "overly demonized" just doesn't know anything about him
"Helped end the cold war" is vague meaningless garbage that pretty much entirely represents literal coincidence. The actual material things he did to push it along were: arm osama bin laden. End of list. His union busting. It's definitely overlooking the downstream damage of Rhenquist, Scalia, and Kennedy, some of the worst fuckers to ever sit on the supreme court. And hell, the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, was in total support of the first wave of pseudo-scientific antivax bullshit movements. And god, gutting the national mental health system. The pileup of this fuck, and moreover the downstream effect on insanity within the republican party is hard to overstate. Almost every major crisis of today's America has a throughline to Reagan. Just a total scumbucket, and it is impossible to overly demonize an actual demon. ikanreed 🐐Bleat at me 21:08, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
 * These are all good points. I should probably revise that section, as it also no longer fits my view of him. 21:13, 4 September 2020 (UTC)

Will you update this?
It'd be cool if you updated this for the Biden administration. Plus, I'm sure Trump isn't any better in your book now that the Capitol storming was a thing. Of course, if you wanna wait or you're just done with this page, that's fine too.TheEndlessVoid (talk) 01:43, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Oh yeah, I did sort of let my essays fall by the wayside, didn’t I? Thanks for reminding me. 02:27, 26 February 2021 (UTC)


 * And promote whoever Abe Lincoln's successor was to "second worst", and add "did 1/6" and "created a rift in his party that led to the 2021 Senate losses in Georgia" to tRump's already massive "the bad" section. -- Goatspeed. 05:13, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
