    Trump says big tax cuts are perfect medicine for economy. Economists, conservative & liberal, are highly skeptical.http://nyti.ms/2qAEtUg

        We already know trickle-down economics don't work from the Reagan era.

        Were you alive in the 80s? I was and the economy was pretty freaking great. Too many people now think we can tax ourselves into prosperity.

        True. Although to be fair, GOP members of Congress haven't exactly distinguished themselves with fiscal austerity since they got control.

        We've tried supply side trickle down economics. I'm now in my 60's and I have yet to feel one drop. Hello, I'm still down here, waiting.

        That money does not get pumped back into the economy by creating jobs. It's bigger salary and bonuses for corporate "fat cats."

        Tax breaks to corporations are more likely to fuel stock buy-backs, not jobs. Most companies are already flush with cash.
