What were some of the social issues reagan supported? did he have much success in adopting his policies in these areas?

Regan was mostly about deregulation of the economy. He believed that this would leave the people with more money which was a social issue. If you reduce taxes, company owners can give more money to the people, which is called trickle down economics. His era was a bit conservative however and social issues included fixing things like the glass ceiling or men and women not having same salaries.

Ain the free market economic system the government is hands off from all supply and demand rates
