Ronald Reagan
It should be noted that this is an incomplete quote.

What Reagan said before these words was, "Back then, government’s view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases..."

In other words, the above quote seems to attribute the view to Reagan when, actually, he was attributing that view to his predecessors.
