The Reagan years started this whole mess.
The union busting was almost immediate.
The attack on the middle-class was slower, but they eventually (SOMEHOW) convinced the middle-class that CEO's and corporations deserve more money than us lowly servants.
Ronald Reagan was no hero. He was a puppet for the rich.

And the difference between Reagan and Trump are that Reagan was a puppet to the American rich; and Trump is a puppet to the Russian rich.
