Why would anyone, who is not a plutocrat, want to settle for a trickle?
Franklin Delano Roosevelt, in 1936, paraphrased the republican argument against him in his reelection bid, when he mocked the republicans with the following one minute section of his speech.
“Let me warn you! Let me warn America! Of course we believe in social security. We believe in jobs for the unemployed. We believe in saving people’s homes! Cross our hearts and hope to die, we believe in all these things! But, we do not like the way the present administration is doing them. Just turn them over to us! We will do all of them! We will do more of them! We will do them better, and most important of all, the doing of them will not cost anybody anything."

Now, 76 years later, the Guardians of Plutocracy (GOP) are singing the same old song. So, if you are willing to settle for a trickle, vote for Romney; he will thank you for the tax cut for the wealthy.
@reggered: It is difficult not to recognize your obvious intelligence. Your grasp of history is awesome. You have covinced me that I have failed to understand what actually happened from 1933 to 1937 and what happened after 1937 when the republicans finally made a stand and blocked all that silly stuff that FDR had put in place. Thank you so much for setting me straight.

I often think of the Plutocrats as the old slave owners but this time they don't care what color they are
Economic slavery is Slavery!

Trickle down economics is Republican code for making sure the rich get richer. It didn't work during the Reagan years & it won't work now.

LOL.
And what do you think Stimulus spending is? It is trickle down.
And what do you think Green Energy spending is? It is trickle down.
You clowns are so blind to the truth.
But the liar-in-chief said it wasn't? Rolling my eyes right now.

Did you misspell the name under your avatar? Should it be "W H A C K O?" I am voting for Mitt Romney. We need to get the socialist Obama out of office. FDR prolonged the depression, so he is not a source of wisdom for anyone.
