As a next-level debunking, I'd like to question the frequency with which major trends and events are attributed so strongly to presidents. It can be politically useful, but it's usually historically questionable. The president of the U.S. is a powerful person, but far from an omnipotent one. Just to take one example from the article, the deregulation of airlines in the U.S. Check out the wikipedia article[0]. Carter supported the bill, but its history goes back to the early 1970s, and lots of other parties were involved in making it happen, most notably Congress, which of course had to pass the law.
