Oh you mean the 7% growth Reagan achieved..Obama never got over 2% have got not seen an 80s movie? It's party central because everyone had money
-
Only people who started with money, made money. It was easy to make money when interest rates were above both inflation and GDP growth. Not so now. Real wages for the average worker remained flat. Still do. $$ never trickles down in any meaningful quantity.
-
I do appreciate the tone of your argument..I wish we could all be that way
-
Yeah, maybe in the movies they did... Nothing "trickles" anywhere except into the bank accounts of those who benefit from it at the top!
-
off shore bank accounts!

Seemed to work pretty well when Reagan did it. But your dementia probably kept you from remembering that...
-
Nope. It didn't work under Reagan either. It caused a recession. I know, I lived through it, not the fantasy bullshit you've been fed.
-
It worked under Reagan. I lived through it too. Bush 41 screwed it up for awhile, but Clinton got the benefits of it. Get out of your fantasy world
-
Examine the explosive growth under Reagan ... of the National Debt Trickle down is a fairy tale where the wicked witch wins
-
And your boy Obama doubled the National debt. So tax & spend doesn’t work.Gimme your solution
-
Actually, the debt increased because Bush waged his wars off the books. Obama just made it honest.
-
You sound just like Obama, it’s all Bush’s fault. And no, I was no fan of Bush
-
It's all Bush and the idiots in Congress's fault, believing in tinkle down fairy tales. Growth comes from the bottom up, as consumer demand drives manufacturing and services. There is not enough consumer demand if you fuck over the middle class. The rich only buy so many yachts.

But handouts do? Get real Nancy
-
There are no handouts. That’s just another racist dog whistle popular with the selfish.
-
Exactly how is that racist?
-
Well, my uninformed friend, the implication has ALWAYS been that it’s minorities who are on welfare (re: 80s 90s 00s GOP campaigns) and that taxes are redistribution to the “takers”. This even though a large portion goes to poor white folks. Catch up.
-
Well my uniformed friend what exactly in MY statement was racist... your ignorance for assuming the intent of statement
-
The use of the term hand-outs. What part are you missing?
-
No need for me to talk in "code." Good try though

Moving on. - 1 more reply
