I would also add the revenge aspect of Reconstruction legislation. Many Northerners wanted to punish the South before allowing them back into the Union. There was quite a bit of debate/arguing over the ease vs. difficulty states should face in being restored their place in the U.S.

The amendments became a part of the punishment, but also the oaths taken by former soldiers would play a part in that as well, as well as legal action taken against political leaders, allowing former politicians back into office, etc.

In what ways did reagan try to fulfill the goal of less government involvement in the economy

aev [14]

For starters, he cut down taxes on companies. He believed that the companies could then increase salaries and create new job opportunities. People could also join the market easier and open their own companies since the taxes were smaller. With more companies in the market, the competition was greater, the prices and the products were better. Or at least that's how it was supposed to work in theory.
