Actually its not a failure. The best example I've ever seen is Bill Gates. Gates started out with an idea. He started a business with that idea. Now how many have become millionaires off his idea. How many people has Gates employed and caused money to trickle down. Then they take that money and go out and buy other items causing other products to be in demand.
Yeah that trickle down doesnt work. Just ignore Bill Gates and all the people that became millionaires off his idea and all the houses bought by employees that he hired and pays. That darn trickle down doesnt work just ignore all those folks working at Microsoft
Bill Gates is a great example of a "rags to riches" story. His business started off small, then really kicked into gear during the clinton administration thanks to his pro small business bills and expanding technology. Microsoft went off like a rocket and one the most successful businesses to date. If it wasn't for Clinton supporting small business, the way we use computers today might be drastically different, if we even had things like the internet at all. Gates also is a devout liberal and donates heavily to charity. He's made national attention asking fellow millionaire and billionaires to donate to charity for people who really need it.
You can look for example now the stock market and big business are doing well but average americans are struggling, why? Mainly from big business hording those "trickle down" funds rather then creating jobs the way they were suppose to do, not to mention sending countless jobs to india and communist china. "Trickle down economics" failed under Reagan, failed under Bush, and was an epic failure under W.
The republicans need to get a clue their economic policies don't work. You can't build a house from the roof down.
In 1974, Dr. Gary A. Kildall, while working for Intel Corporation, created CP/M as the first operating system for the new microprocessor. By 1977, CP/M had become the most popular operating system (OS) in the fledgling microcomputer (PC) industry. The largest Digital Research (http://www.digitalresearch.biz/DR.HTM - broken link) licensee of CP/M was a small company which had started life as Traf-0-Data, and is now known as Microsoft. In 1981, Microsoft paid Seattle Software Works for an unauthorized clone of CP/M, and Microsoft licensed this clone to IBM which marketed it as PC-DOS on the first IBM PC in 1981, and Microsoft marketed it to all other PC OEMs as MS-DOS.
Microsoft first sent IBM to Digital Research, but IBM returned to Microsoft after failing to make a deal with Digital Research.

Yes, something like that. Maybe that's why he donates money now, his poor conscience haunting him
You know what he/she meant--that was snarky. Let's restate it--what happens when people can't afford to buy the computers that use microsoft products and services? I'm a small business owner, and my husband works for a company where he's also a shareholder--if people can't afford our products, we don't work either.
Do you have any idea at all how tired, and worn-out that bilge is???
Come again??
Are you saying that you are tired of hearing about how the wealthy stay rich on the backs of the poor? Imagine how the poor, who pay these taxes, feel!
Were not the "bailouts" on wall-street paid for from tax dollars?

Bonuses on Wall Street became a huge political story last year after AIG awarded bonuses to a unit blamed in part for the financial crisis that led to a $700 billion bailout.

But TARP remains unpopular with the public, partly because of a sense that Wall Street was saved during the financial crisis while main street businesses were left to suffer. While Wall Street professionals hope to win bonuses, unemployment remained at 9.6 percent in September.
