54. Greenspan appointed 1987

Greenspan was on Reagan's Social security reform commission in 1981 and DOUBLED the SS tax for all making below $30,000. It built up a huge surplus, while Reagaan cut taxes on the rich in half. Then as Reagan's advisor, Greenspan and Reagan started borrowing from the SS Trust fund to pay for Reagans spiralling national debt from his tax cuts on the rich.
