Trickle-down economics works! Cut taxes and everyone wins!

What You Say

Four decades of tax cuts for the wealthy coincided with stagnating middle-class wages and soaring inequality. CBO analysis shows top-bracket cuts disproportionately benefit the richest households while increasing deficits that Republicans then use to justify cutting Social Security and Medicare. Money trickles up — always has.

The Stab

We've been trickled on for forty years. It's not rain.
