However, Chang is mistaken.

Trickle down economics works very well.

For plutocrats.

That's why the plutocrats in the nation's capitol and in the capitols of very states keep enacting trickle down policies and why Presidents and Governors keep signing the bills.

Mayors and city councillors, I am looking at you, too!

P.S. Nice job with the headline!

I actually thought for a second about changing it, but then the quotation marks would not have been honest.
