"The Days of Trickle Down Economics are over."

[BrightShinyGirl]

The most overlooked story by the mainstream media from Biden's State of the Union address last week was that the President drove a stake through the animated corpse of Ronald Reagan's legacy. It was a vigorous call to arms to raise taxes on the rich and spend more federal money to help regular Americans.

People better vote.

Trickle down was never more than a demented Chicago School theory. One that an ex-B-list movie star sold to an idiot public incapable of reasoned thought.

Exactly. "Trickle down" is the myth that has put the USA in $34T of debt. Give money to the rich, they make more money. Give money to the poor and middle class; they SPEND it.

These are both excellent posts

There was never any, "trickle down". That was a corporate myth to make themselves feel magnanimous.

Happy to keep the SALT cap in place

Let’s hope offshore funds and tax havens go the same way too.

The rich got richer, and the poor got "trickled" on.

Biden got no bounce from the SOTU. In fact he lost some fractions of a point.

Which should tell almost anyone capable of thinking that the things he shouted about aren't the things Americans are worried about.

It’s March. You and Babyboobs can fawn over polling all day. The fact that you and the other trumpers aren’t calling Biden senile and are suddenly wanting to argue ‘Katie Britt kitchen table policies’ is the win liberals and democrats wanted. Now, shall we?
Shall we talk what Biden has accomplished against a do nothing Republican House that forsakes its oath of office in deference to an out of office Sleepy Don?

10th amendment

10th amendment

Apparently major wrongway doesn't understand the difference between State income tax and Federal income tax.

10th amendment

The right wing loves states rights … except when they don’t like what some states do. Then it’s “SALT cap” time, baby.

Consistently inconsistent. And amusingly tie themselves in knots trying to justify their opinions.

Like I said, you don't know the difference between State and Federal taxation structures.

Trickled on while necessary infrastructure was not maintained. If only Trump had attempted to start a bill for that after promising it year in year out, along with their medical plan

Yep, so true:

Nonsense. If the SALT cap is inconsistent with the tenth amendment or any other constitutional provisions it would have been successfully challenged by officials or residents from high tax states.
