There is no such thing as supply side economic theory as well.

Demand drives supply, and this has always been true. But the fraud of supply side economics was invented to justify giving tax breaks to the already too wealthy.

7. Precisely guillaumeb, Republicans like to call it "supply side economics" but what's the point

of having supplies if there is no demand?

2. People knew it was way back when they first started it.

The general thought was trickle down meant getting peed on.

4. We are well on the way of getting what Sanders and Warren wanted regarding global trade.

We’ll get a chance to see how trading among ourselves works if they, and trump, get their way. See how Medicare-for-All, child care, free college and debt discharge, bolstering Social Security, etc., fares with that.

I’d rather see the wealthy make money and, then, tax the hell out of them.

5. Pathetic Brownback and his trickle-down govenrment experiment showed that in Kansas during his...

disastrous administration. The entire state loss revenue and jobs and had to cut so many programs they had to ditch it.

6. Imagine that face being peed on by Russian hookers- that's Trickle Down

That's exactly what Trickle Down is- for all of us in the middle class and lower, we are getting pissed on.

Welcome to the outhouse basement.
