I believe Mr Reagan was a patriot and actually believed in what he was saying, only problem with an idea that is voluntary participation is the 'I'm going to keep everything that you don't force out of me' and Mr Reagan actually thought business and corporate owners would 'share the bounty' so to speak... The truth is business and corporate owners will work you until you drop and give you a biscuit for your trouble if you allow them to, it is sad that in a country like we have, trade unions are just about the only way to force any kind of reasonable wage from these guys.
