Uhh...actually, Reagan prolonged the life of it. Carter realized the Soviet Union was on the verge of collapse so he was willing to wait them out. Reagan decided to outspend them and in doing so revitalized the USSR. They eventually collapsed, but if Carter had won reelection it would happened by 1983.
