    #TrickleDown EXISTS!
    But it is—and always has been—UPSIDE DOWN!
    It's the same as the #water cycle: millions of tiny streams (workers, small businesses) feed the crops, the economy, populations & environment, before ending in a tiny number (the 0.001%) of LARGE (wealthy) oceans... that don't "trickle down" anywhere or do any of the work of the millions of tiny streams.

    man kann das vereinfacht so betrachten: wenn in einem Wirtschaftssystem mit einer fixen Geldmenge jemand mehr geld hat, hat er das von wem anders bekommen.

    Wenn also leute reicher werden, was durchaus die Absicht von dem #Libertären #Union, #FDP, #AfD ist, damit deren reichtum nach unten durchsickern kann (#TrickleDown) und du vergisst dabei die netto geldmenge in deinem system zu erhöhen (neue #Staatsschulden, weniger #Import, mehr #Export) dann kann das nicht klappen.

  5. Let's start a thread about the great lies of trickle-down economics. I'll start.

    "We cannot tax billionaires at the same effective overall rates as everyone else, because then these "job creators" won't grow the economy."

    (Don't trickle-down on my leg and tell me it's raining.)

    Wow. What is happening to tech? Twelve years ago they Sony and Japanese #University were fitting 1TB on a flepping #Bluray!

    Has this #technology enjoyed a #trickleDown effort to the people or are the #technoFascists and Hollywood hoarding this tech for themselves now?

    We are developing a taste for blood just reading about Bluray and knowing that #diskDrives are being systematically removed from the concept of computing.
