To the point regarding "trickle-down" economics.
Good job!
:applause:

The real triumph of conservatism is solidly implanting in the minds of some middle class and lower class people that "every penny that goes into the pockets of billionaires and corporations creates jobs!!!"
What nonsense. Statistically, rich people are far more likely to put disposable income into savings — like Swiss bank accounts. What does go to investments is just as likely to be spent building factories in China that exports American jobs.
Winning over the trailer park people of Kansas and getting them to vote against their own economic interests is a real triumph of propaganda; supported of course by gay-bashing preachers and abortion fanaticism.
