#woke And yeah, you read right, this means going way leftward! This means flattening some priviledges and social pyramids and putting the most fragile and vulnerable at the center of all political debates. Basically, what is good for them, will probably be good for everyone else. We should reverse the freaking #trickledowneconomics into #bottomuppolitics.
#trickledowneconomics
Wealth doesn't #trickledown naturally, it stays where it is or it floats upwards. Wealth gives market advantage. The reality is that unless it is well regulated, Wealth gets sucked upwards.
That's why the workers and the middle classes are losing wealth just as the billionaires are amassing it in proportions of world GDP that haven't been seen since Julius Caesar and his friends/enemies looted the entirety of Europe and the middle East 2000 years ago.
How is it possible that anyone, never mind a local or national politician with some influence, can still promote 'growth' as an economic strategy without being ridiculed from all sides?! Probably for the same reason we still have the same folks seriously talking about #TrickleDownEconomics like an early 80s gold-plated dickhead, secure in the knowledge that most people neither give a crap, nor know any more than they do. The state of the world is relentlessly depressing.
The #COALition love a good fantasy - either creating one or telling one.

Klatten kriegt 1.1 Millionen die Stunde, und ich komm nach einem Jahr als selbstständiger Handwerker kaum über die 20.000 die ich zum Leben brauch.
Da hilft kein #TaxTheRich mehr.
Es braucht einen #Höchstlohn. Der ist überfällig. Meinetwegen beim 50-fachen des Mindestlohns. Dann haben die Milliardär*Innen auch einen Grund, den Mindestlohn zu erhöhen. Und #trickledowneconomics wird endlich wahr.
Der Rest geht dann an Schulen, Krankenhäuser, die Bahnstrecken, die KiTas, Kleinbäuerliche Betriebe usw usf.
Dafür bekommen die Milliardär*Innen jedes Jahr eine Karte, wo drauf steht welches Freibad sie saniert haben und welche Schule wieder ein funktionierendes Klo hat. Und weil ich so nett bin, leg ich noch ein Extra oben drauf: Einen Pokal und eine Glückwunschkarte, weil sie den #Kapitalismus offensichtlich schon durchgezockt haben. Dadurch, in die richtige Familie geboren worden zu sein.

#ABlueView #TrickleDownEconomics Again Shown to be BS
Now that Trump's 2017 tax cuts are going to be extended at such a fantastically large cost that the GOP will argue the social safety net has to be cut to pay for it, it was time to republish 2 posts refuting their 2017 Trickle Down claims:

@ChrisMayLA6 And to me too and I'd add that the instability of life today doesn't help either and this is directly tied to a lack of money. #neoliberalism doesn't work and so called #trickledowneconomics is a joke that has the rich laughing all the way to the bank. And many politicos appear to be in the pockets of the rich too, sadly @nini

No admission that Repubs are the reason we’re in this mess…

At least they're admitting it NOW.
If the #GOP had their way (more than they already do), CBS would be saying #TrickleDownEconomics are going swimmingly.
Yo, #GMs out there. Want to have your next game setting be in a radically and rapidly impoverished country or city, but don't know how to build a #backstory for such a setting? Just use #TrickleDownEconomics.
