Why do conservatives promote trickle down economics?
The only thing that trickles down in trickle down economics is the strength, power, and wellbeing of any nation employing such pro-too-big-to-fail policies. The average American is left to struggle. Tax increases on people who don't have money to give makes no sense. Meanwhile, massive corporations that do as little as they can to help the average worker, see a massive increase in already astronomically large profit margins. WHY?

It doesn't work. It never has. Studies have time and time again proven it. Just tell me right now-- what the hell is moral about taking money from a hardworking, middle-class American. Lazy slob. You want to rob the poor. Disgusting.

I don't use the Internet for porn, thank you very much. I am a good Christian woman, and I am offended you should imply I would.
Now I'll also have you know I have a degree in economics and I have carefully studied the correlation between various economic policies and national wellbing, and trickle down policies consistently did harm.
