When the government stops treating business like the enemy.You got everything you ever wanted! The richest Americans are cruising along with a negligible tax burden, the corporations are sitting on piles of cash, the rich are richer than ever before! Where's the trickle down? When's it supposed to start?Now that the wealth has been successfully redistributed, when is the change gonna come?
We were first told of the Grand bargain back in the 1980s. It was called, variously, Supply Side Economics or Voodoo Economics or Trickle Down economics.
The idea went something like this: if the rich get more money through tax breaks, they will inevitably spend that money to create jobs.
Well, the 400 richest families in America now control as much wealth as the bottom 50% of tax payers COMBINED. The top 5% of the wealthiest individuals control more capital than the bottom 85% of wage earners.
Now that what the Right fears most about Obama (wealth redistribution) has happened, I, and many, many other Americans sit waiting for the trickle down to begin! What's going on here, Conservatives? Did your theory become a turd in the punch bowl yet again?
Hey you stupid fuck, check a calendar it's 2011, Obama is President and Reid is Senate Majority Leader and guess what? the DNC says' "We Own the economy"
