Since his 1966 gubernatorial campaign in California, Reagan has advocated balanced budgets. His promise of a balanced federal budget by 1983 was a keystone of his successful 1980 presidential campaign. But while formulating his first budget proposal last year, Reagan said the federal budget would be balanced in 1984, a year later than he originally had predicted. Then, last fall he acknowledged that he would be unable to meet his goal because of the deepening recession, which drained federal revenues while increasing costs. "No one sympathizes with the idea of a balanced budget more than I do," Reagan said Wednesday in a speech prepared for a town meeting sponsored by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors. “You may remember, I've mentioned it a few times over the years. "The deficits we propose are much larger than I would like,” he said. "But they are a necessary evil in the real world today.” Reagan said raising taxes would not significantly reduce the deficit, and he blamed the reduction and postponement of his original 30 percent tax-cut proposal for damaging "our chances of nipping this recession in the bud." et al.
