Opportunity cost refers to a lost opportunity when an individual picks an alternate option. In this example, Harry gives up the chance to go fishing in order to see his parents. When dealing with opportunity costs, you must remember that a person's decision to do something (like going to see their parents) results in them missing out on something else (like going fishing).

Win for taxation policies--loss on reversing social welfare programs.

Reagan was able to reverse taxation and provide breaks for the upper classes to stimulate job growth and wages. However, programs like Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid were so heavily used he was not able to get rid of those programs. 

Reagan wanted to return to a country with free trade, laissez-faire policies, and limited government influence in the economy. However, some of the New Deal and Great Society programs had become widely used especially by the ever growing elderly population. Reagan was not able to stop these programs without major repercussions to his elderly base.<span />
