The only trickle we're getting comes off their balls it would seem

It's just about to trickle down, I can feel it.

Maybe if we just work harder and in worse conditions?

You have to want to get trickled on

That feels gross, like standing under a dripping gutter two days after the last rain. Something just isn’t right..

Oh, it trickles down. It's that yellow, warm and smelly stuff.

Zoinks! Jinkies! It hasn't trickled down in 40 years! Let's try harder!

I mean, it's impossible on its face. That's like saying "In how many futures did 1+1 literally equal 7?"

It was never possible. Nobody who knew anything about economics truly thought it would work.

It was just a money grab, and like all money grabs, they don't care about how it looks in the future. They figured they'd be able to bullshit about it later. That's it.

Why do you think it is that when we send humanitarian aid to a country where people are starving, that we have to figure out how to keep their local government from stealing all of it? It's because it's an immediate practical demonstration of trickle down economics.

Just that one time when they elected Ronald Reagan .... oh no wait ... no ... that one didn't work either

Unless they elected Ronald Reagan to be fired from a cannon into the sea and sold tickets.
