Trickle down economics has been a disaster for this country. It has completely destroyed America’s middle class. Democrats won’t win on the message that we can help people survive the disaster. We will win by saying we’re going to end it. Universal healthcare, tuition-free state colleges and universities, a guaranteed living wage, free childcare, paid maternity & paternity leave & guaranteed sick pay - like in every other advanced democracy! - will begin to right the ship.

What's sad is that it seems like people need to be constantly reminded that this is a problem. The powers that be wanna distract us with anything else. Of course Fox News doesn't help, but neither does MSNBC. Not many fighting for this.

This isn’t rocket science. Historically true that making all that stuff free will make all that stuff so much worse.

I’ve always respected you. I’ve even purchased many of your books. But, I think you should really look at your post. Too many politicians and those working in politics are the ones raping the system for money. Question 🙋🏼‍♂️ for you. What democracy does all that you are proposing?

Does a guaranteed living wage mean UBI or job guarantee or both?

There's no such thing as "trickle down economics". That's not an economic philosophy. It's nothing more than a term made up by leftists to use as a pejorative when referring to things within economics that they don't understand.

I so agree with you Marianne - but the Dems are trying to DO something. We need to call out R politicians and their lies every time

@UN @elonmusk Trickle-down economics is Trick. The current economics is more like a "bidet economics" for the oligarchs. Be wise to revise aims of human's life thanks to nationwide & global nets of full automated #Super_Co_Ops with shares of every citizen proza.ru/2020/02/10/760

Let me tell YOU a secret about trickle down economics: it doesn’t exist, it never did. If ever there were a form of trickle down economics, it’s the Keynesian crap you guys keep recycling where you continuously borrow from the future to trickle money down from the government.
