Who could have possibly predicted that? I mean, aside from the millions and millions of us who absolutely did predict that and have been screaming about it for decades?
One type of person accumulates more and more money in their dragon hoard. The other type spends it. How regarded do you have to be to think this was going to redistribute shit?
It worked, sort of, just not for you, me, or the 40,000,000 Americans (that we know of) who can’t afford to miss a day of work.
40 years on the minimum wage has been seven bucks for 15 years and we’re still voting for trickle-down economics every two years. Both parties have made this a core piece of their governing, and we reward them for it. That’s success.
Look at extremes like Musk. Of course he is generating jobs. But he also took 200 billion or so from everyone else for himself. That’s not going to trickle down.
It would trickle down to his 12 children or however many he has. Except the trans one because she disowned him. Can you imagine what a monster of a father he must be for one of his children to disown him when he’s the richest man in the world?
Same energy as a 13 year old girl posting on her Tumblr.
It’s correct but I wouldn’t be caught dead spreading it. I’d rather show the way that basically every bit of progress the US made until Reagan stopped with him. Wages and productivity rose in lockstep… Until Reagan. Charts & figures > sHE beLIEveD
I on the other hand wouldn't be caught dead using US "progress" as an example of anything other than the evils of colonialism and capitalism, or allowing anyone to think I thought all the shit we're dealing with started with Reagan, because that would show just how wilfully ignorant I am.
But hey, you do you. 😂
