"Actually, no, he didn't. What he did was cut taxes across-the-board, BUT
gave a disproportionate cut to the upper income brackets."
"It is a fact that Reagan's tax cuts were disproportionate in favor of
the upper income brackets."
"However, it is a fact that the tax cuts were disproportionately in favor
of the rich. MUCH larger cuts were given the very richest than anyone
else, who got a much flatter cut."
Three statements made by you. People are asking for the definition of
"disproportionate" that stands behind each of these three statements. So it
seems that you have chosen door number three. Fair enough. Nobody reading
this thread is under the delusion that you have a well thought out basis for
making these three statements anyway.
