It is no coincidence that our present troubles parallel and are proportionate to the intervention and intrusion in our lives that result from unnecessary and excessive growth of government. ..So, with all the creative energy at our command, let us begin an era of national renewal.” Ronald Reagan’s First Inaugural Address January 20, 1981 Which of the following governmental policies would Reagan have most likely supported?
