4. I did a similar thread last week
Inviting conservatives and "centrists" to name anything good that came from their political philosophies. Aside from Nixon establishing the EPA, I don't seem to recall anybody coming up with anything. (except maybe a few DLC'ers trying to spin bad policies as "good")

5. Also tax breaks to move their corporations overseas.
The wiretapping act, torture, wars, no bid billion dollar contracts to cheney favorite stock companies. That's just a few. OH I forgot. A campaign in the 1930 to overthrow the government, so Prescott Bush could install him self as a dictator.
