*EDIT:
Part I: Trickle Down Economics is (2) Under Republican President, declare war on the middle and lower classes to redistribute wealth "UP".

Part II: Trickle Down Economics is (9) The middle class Democratic voter rejoices and all praise goes to Obama for bringing jobs back via trickle down economics.

It's a total mind-fuck and succeeds at erasing 2008-2009 from a Democrat's memory. Bailouts of WS and banksters on the backs of the middle class, the increasing market concentration of multi-national corporations and financial institutions...poof! GONE!! It was all a movement of trillions of dollars to the 1% and 0.5% and 0.25% on the backs of the middle class Democrat and Republican.


aside: I almost never expect a conversation when I come here. I assume the first responders are out to attack. Sorry
