Does anybody here believe the end result is not directly caused by the idea that if you let the rich make all the money they can they will allow that to "trickle down"?... sure they will but only if you are able to force that trickle down.

Does anybody here believe cutting those taxes did not lead to the debt boondongle we have today, if you do. look at the top tax rates before and after reagan... trickle down was a sham that only benefited the wealthy.

Does anybody remember what Bush1 referred to trickle down as?
31 percent: Top tax rate in 1991
50 percent: Top tax rate in 1986
70 percent: Top tax rate in 1980
91 percent: Top tax rate in 1963
I can assure you the middle class was much better off in the Reagan administration than they are under Obama administration he has destroyed the middle class and has a huge expansion to the lower class. Why do you think his policies were destroyed this last election------because THEY HAVE NOT WORKED AND THEY WILL NOT WORK IT HAS BEEN PROVEN OVER AND OVER. As far as your trickle down theory that was a label given by the liberals trying to make it look like it id not work and evidently you are one of the ones who drank the kool aid.
