It is called trickle up poverty...brought to you by the Marxists in power.
When you say things like this, all that it tells me is that you have no idea what Marxism is.
Of course, your average city-data poster won't know either, so you'll do fine here.
Under President Bush lite (Obama), the top earners of this country have fared far better than the rest of us and have seen massive gains in their pocket books, yet many middle class individuals struggle and social mobility isn't getting any better.
I mean, I thought the wealth trickled down to all the rest of us......right?!?!?!??!?!!?
It does. It's trickling down to China and India. Just because you aren't seeing the effects of it, doesn't mean it isn't happening. Try using your head. Where do you think all the growth in China and India are coming from?
The growth of the third world and the offshoring problem is proof that trickle down economics does, in fact, work exactly as it is supposed to work. It's just that as usual idiot liberals are incompetent at running an economy and their policies are ensuring that it is other nations that are receiving the trickle down instead of us.
Man, it's frustrating when someone comes across so arrogant and sarcastic thinking they are just too cool for school when they're really just displaying boneheaded ignorance.

Everyone already knows this. You are probably the only person on this thread who thinks that this is a major revelation.

Which liberal policies are responsible for all of this work going to China and India, exactly? I mean, it couldn't possibly be that businesses prefer slave labor to honest labor. I mean, slavery is un-American! And yet, it continues to thrive in countries from which Americans buy their cheap goods.
If those liberals didn't keep getting in the way, we'd have more slavery in America so we could compete. But I guess that's what illegal immigrants are for.
Republicans say giving the rich lower tax rates than everyone else creates jobs and improves the economy.
But in reality new high demand products, new markets, and consumers spending money (that's what creates jobs and economic growth.)
The rich use their trickle down tax cut money to buy new jet airplanes, buy mansions for their kids, and buy vacation homes in Europe.
