Volobjectitarian debunks "trickle down" in response to Tonyafd back in 2019

An earlier 2019 debunking of "trickle down" nonsense

The 2018 link of links by me that debunks "trickle down" nonsense.

Honestly, why do people cling to lies that have been so routinely and thoroughly debunked? I just don't get it.

You seem to misunderstand, we are in agreement. Il padroni "the liesure class" is still using that nonsense to convince the gullible that if you lower taxes on the very wealthy, it will trickle down.

Companies that make two employees do the work of three are called sweat shops and deserve to fail.

I don’t disagree. It’s time employees were recognized and received a larger slice of the pie. However, I have a problem with unions protecting loser employees. Poor performers who don’t show improvement when given the chance and help should not be protected. Employees who allow substance use to degrade performance should also be let go.
