You don't understand the process of wealth redistribution. Actually, there is no such thing as trickle down, only trickle up.
Winston Churchill had it right: "The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries."
Economic stagnation is the only thing that trickles up, or haven't you been paying attention?
The wealthy have sucked up American resources like no other time in history. Why does the right-wing want more tax cuts for the wealthy at the expense of others and well being of our country?
It's never enough with you people. You just don't get it. Sooner or later, you will run out of other people's money. When will your side get up and fight the good fight. Cut the EBT down, reduce unemployment benefits, whack as many social programs as possible and cut the government payroll by 30 percent.
Eliminate waste and then there will be PLENTY of money to lend, plenty to invest in infrastructure.....you answer to YOUR problems is tax someone else. It's a failure from the start.
I'm not rich. Not even close and this year the AMT might kick in. Capiche? Regardless, the LAST thing I want to do is to tax ANYONE to help me out. I'll do fine. I keep clawing away at other opportunities and one will hit. If, for whatever reason, they do not, it's no one's fault but my own.
When will your people realize YOU are responsible for your well being, not some ******* down the road. Make your own day "go bedduh" and quit looking to steal other people's cash.

Lying A fallacy of reasoning that depends on intentionally saying something that is known to be false.
Suppressed Evidence Intentionally failing to use information suspected of being relevant and significant is committing the fallacy of suppressed evidence. This fallacy usually occurs when the information counts against one’s own conclusion.
Denying the Antecedent You are using this fallacy if you deny the antecedent of a conditional and then suppose that doing so is a sufficient reason for denying the consequent

According to the most recent Federal Reserve Flow of Funds report, US households currently have an all-time high $82 trillion in overall wealth. If that wealth were spread out evenly, every US household would now have $712k.
The evidence you suppressed is right there.
Why don't you explain it to everyone?

And that is something else you will adamantly refuse to define objectively in no uncertain terms, just like "Living Wage" (snicker).
They have always done that and more than paid their share. The real issues is should it be redistributed by government to other individuals rather than government services to all?
Why dont you? I mean your whole post is one giant personal attack, calling him a liar, etc. I think if you want to support that statement you should dive in, present some facts-you know, have an honest debate.

Not true for the wealthy! They literally got rich off the labor of the rest of us.
