so when does the trickle start ?
Looks to me like all the money in this country is trickling upwards.

It never started, and it doesn't happen. If it were, oil CEOs would not be getting $400 million/year bonuses. This is a myth promoted by the right, covering their eyes and ears thinking that in some intangible way, that money is trickling down. And while their CEOs are buying mansions, planes and land with their bonuses, the hard-working middle class (some of them Conservatives), don't get much of the profits, except for perhaps a company dinner or a measly $200/year bonus.

It must take a long time because Reagan started it and I still don't see the trickle. Maybe the key part is the TRICKle. The alternative name is "voodoo economics".

If you dislike rich people so much work for a poor person and see how much worse off you will be.
The rich (or Achievers as I like to call them) create jobs and wealth. If they are not over taxed (the rich are taxed more now than they ever have been) they can create more jobs and wealth.

I'm still waiting for the first drop myself. Flow kind of dried up after that time in my opinion.

Don't pee on my leg and try and tell me it's raining.
