was about the Republican rejection of facts, which I argued really began
under President Ronald Reagan. In passing I said a bit about the legend of
the Reagan economy, which plays an outsized role in conservative economic
doctrine to this day. And I thought it might be interesting to talk some
more both about the reality of Reaganomics and the relevance of that
reality to possibilities over the next few years.

First of all, why are Republicans still talking so much about Reagan? The
answer is that the core of modern conservative economic doctrine is the
assertion that cutting taxes, especially on the wealthy, does wonderful
things for the economy. And they hold up Reagan’s economic record as proof
of that doctrine’s truth.

Why use an example that is decades in the past, rather than a more recent
success story? The answer is that there aren’t any recent success stories.
Since 1990 claims that tax cuts will generate huge booms — and that tax
hikes will lead to disaster — have belly-flopped again and again. President
Bill Clinton’s tax increases in 1993 didn’t cause the recession just about
everyone

on the right predicted; President George W. Bush’s tax cuts didn’t produce
a “Bush boom.” The Trump tax cut didn’t deliver anything like the promised
results.

It wasn’t.

So it’s back to Reagan. But was the Reagan story really all that great?

Right-wing politicians think so — but this is based on what they’ve heard
from people in their intellectual bubble. A few years back, for example,
Sen. Rand Paul made what he thought was a telling point

“When was the last time in our country we created millions of jobs? It was
under Ronald Reagan …” Actually, more jobs were created under Clinton.

So where does the legend of Reagan come from? Partly, of course, from
pretending that the Clinton-era boom never happened — which is easier
because of the “hack gap

Conservatives and their media outlets constantly harp on their preferred
story lines, in a way liberals don’t. But it also involves a
bait-and-switch on timing, essentially pretending that Reagan’s presidency
didn’t start until the end of the severe recession that occupied most of
his first two years in office.

How much difference does this make? If you look at G.D.P. over the whole of
Reagan’s time in office, it grew at an annual rate of 3.38 percent —
compared with 3.33 percent under President Jimmy Carter and 3.68 percent
under Clinton. Given the limitations of economic statistics, which I like
to describe as a peculiarly boring form of science fiction, this basically
amounts to no difference.

But if you start at the bottom of the 1981-2 recession, the rate of growth
in the rest of the Reagan years was 4.7 percent. Morning in America!

The truth is that Reagan doesn’t deserve blame for the 1981-2 recession —
but he doesn’t deserve credit for the subsequent recovery, either. Instead,
it was all about the Federal Reserve. The Fed sharply raised interest rates

in 1980 in an attempt to bring inflation down, causing a severe recession;
then it relented in the summer of 1982 and the economy snapped back. That
snapback led to two years of rapid growth, as unused capacity was brought
back online — and tax-cutting conservatives have been falsely claiming
credit for that growth ever since.

So what’s the relevance of all this to where we are now? I’ve been arguing
for a while that the pandemic is playing an economic role that, in a
peculiar way, is similar to that of the high interest rates of the early
1980s, and that there will be a period of very fast growth

once the vaccine lets us go back to more or less normal life. So, do you
think conservatives will give President-elect Joe Biden credit for a new
Morning in America?

That was a rhetorical question.
