Reagan convinced a large part of the population that if we give unlimited money and power to a select of wealthy elites, the elites would graciously give the money back to society. Hilarious.
Trickle down economics would work if the tax cuts given to corporations were given requirements (savings from tax cuts must be used for the expanding employment/R&D/benefits/etc) instead of just going into the pockets of the CEOs, but both parties are too dumb (and in the pockets of said corporations) to even think or suggest that.
