The wages of the richest 1% have skyrocketed 182% since 1979.
Meanwhile, the wages of the bottom 90% have seen just 44% growth.
Trickle down economics was always a hoax.

How many more times will America keep letting Republicans tank economies?
No really…
HOW MANY FUCKING TIMES!!!!!!
Think harder.
“No!”
“It’s the wealthiest people pissing on us!”
Then Gives Huge Tax Breaks For Richest! These Tax Breaks Wipe Out- All Financial Gains From CUTS—And Then INCREASE NATIONAL DEBT! TELL GOPs -NO CUTS FOR US AND “NO ENTITLED” TAX BREAKS FOR RICHEST !! CUTS 800B-Medicaid, 250+ M -SNAP ! More!
That's why the average American doesn't have$500. to cover unexpected emergencies.Reagan was the worst, he raised taxes on the working class 11 times during his tenure, he also slashed the tax rate for the rich from 75% to 25%, he also deregulated media,
Providing a pathway for the likes of Rush Limbaugh and other right wing propaganda to spew their ideaology, his Iran Contra Scandel, his support Apartheid regime, the economic crash, which always occurs under Rethuglicans.
1. Class War
2. Civil War
3. Revolution
"Um...I'll have the number 3, please."
May this regime's demise be swift and severe.
Adam Smith used the word 'education' EIGHTY Times in Wealth of Nations and wrote "read, write and ACCOUNT" FIVE times.
It is not necessary to read the book. It is Free in Project Gutenberg, just search it.
In relation to the Cost of Living Index?
What would that look like?
90% is much higher than 1%. So more people of the working class are earning more.
Supply side economics works.
His last tax cut cost me $13K in deductions and 1st year my tax bill was $10K drained my savings while billionaires increasing their wealth on my back.Since then I went to 0 married filing single still about 5k. I have house and child
In any case, the Class War started in 1981 and the rich have been winning the whole time. Project 2025 is the end game.
Project 2025 is just the quiet part out loud. The world-domination cabal used to keep their plans secret.
STAY LOUD!
That’s send a message!
Does anyone know the numbers to calculate this?
Because the folk at output end of the funnel designed the funnel.

Now they are coming for the rest of the wealth they haven't managed to get so far.

I encourage folks to find their rep https://www.house.gov/representatives/find-your-representative
Do your own flavor of the text in he picture, and let's ask weekly accountability to Musk to our representatives , since he looks that feisty , shall we?
That’s all that is w/ a fancy name
They do not.
Consumers create jobs.
No wonder the ruling families of ancient Rome converted to christianism.
Best propaganda ever!

If this doesn’t scream we need a party for the people, what does.
I’m tired of my choices being the kkk or shit scraps (alternating between the two).

Is it what you are looking for?
Communnists take all money from everyone. Distribution of wealth in their case is absolute. Absolute majority is poor. Much worse than now.
We had communism here. 41 years.You have no slightest imagination how bad it is.
There are no "pure" forms of economic systems. All economic systems are mix of policies.
Go visit China, it's eye opening, and the people are very friendly and welcoming to Americans.
Communism and fascism are practically the same. Stalin and Hitler cooperated 1939-1941 until Hitler violated the treaty.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molotov–Ribbentrop_Pact
Before that we lived 6 years under fascists and 41 years in communism.
In 1938 we were betrayed as USA wants to betray Ukraine now. In 1938 it lead to WWII as Hitler did not stop. And Putin will not either.
The worst possible combination to come together. It is like two baby hitlers have been born. Or maybe mussalini, hitler and a touch of stalin. Anyway, the worst possible.

Trickle down economics WAS AND STILL IS A SCAM.
The only ones who believe it works are fool.
And if you have a ton of government printed cash 💵 then you just buy up already existing assets and buy yourself a government
However, attributing it solely to trickle-down policies oversimplifies a complex economic story.
Multiple factors have contributed: globalization, automation, declining union membership, and shifts in our economic structure.
99% of Americans are NOT capitalists. Many want to be, but majority will never be actual capitalists.
They use corporations to buy politicians, so both parties benefit ($$$) from demonizing anything not pro-capitalism.
