Look, we tried trickle-down economics for over forty years. It simply didn’t work. The national debt exploded and nothing trickled-down, so now we move on.

Stimulating the economy from the bottom up is clearly more effective. A rising tide should lift all boats, not just yachts.

@danwentzel It did work - exactly as intended. A lot of rich people got more wealthy, a couple of new rich people were minted, and everybody else took an economic punch in the kidneys.
