His contract meant nothing because it wasn't kept.
Regan was the first to turn into a social conservative while spending us into oblivion. Meaning he was of the new era of Republican that feels it's OK for the Govt to tell adults what they can and can't do, but are OK with irresponsible; govt spending as long as it's a corporation getting the funds and not some average Joe.
For some reason you Right Wingers see Regan as a hero, yet he was the beginning of the end of "true" conservative Republicans and the start of what is wrong with this country today.
