The Age of Reagan
Lee Edwards (archive)

June 7, 2004

On the two epic events of the last 50 years — the waging of the Cold War and the growth of the welfare state — Ronald Reagan was indisputably correct. Communism was evil and had to be defeated, not merely contained. And the welfare state had grown dangerously large and had to be rolled back, not simply managed efficiently.
The American public agreed emphatically with his judgments and with his prescriptions, and they elected him president twice — the second time by a landslide — and would have given him a third term in 1988 but for the 22nd Amendment.

The Washington Post acknowledged that 1980 was no ordinary election: "Nothing of that size and force and sweep could have been created over a weekend or even a week or two by the assorted mullahs and miseries of our time." Ronald Reagan came to the presidency with an express mandate from the people to cut income taxes from top to bottom, reduce the size of the federal government, and make the U.S. military number one in the world. His most decisive domestic action was the Economic Recovery Tax Act of 1981, which Newsweek rightly called a "second New Deal potentially as profound in its import as the first was a half-century ago." The 25 percent across-the-board tax cut, plus the indexing of tax rates, produced a historic economic expansion.

Reagan also challenged directly the welfare philosophy that had dominated Washington since the New Deal. Entitlements, he insisted, should be replaced by "benefits contingent on responsible behavior." He had first developed this new principle of American social policy as governor of California, and it would undergird the extensive welfare reforms of the 1990s. When Ronald Reagan took office in January 1980, the United States and its allies had been laboring for 35 years to contain communism with a wide range of military and economic initiatives that had cost tens of thousands of lives and hundreds of billions of dollars. But for the new president, containment was not working or at least not working fast enough. The time had come to defeat communism.

He went on the offensive, telling members of the British Parliament in June 1982 that "the march of freedom and democracy . . . will leave Marxism-Leninism on the ash heap of history." And he quickened that march with a strategy that shifted the superpower struggle to the Soviet bloc and the Soviet Union itself. He initiated what came to be called the Reagan Doctrine — a policy of proxy warfare in Afghanistan, Nicaragua, Angola and Cambodia. It was the most cost-effective of all the Cold War doctrines, costing the United States only about half a billion dollars a year but forcing the cash-strapped Soviets to spend several times that amount to deflect its impact.
