Report Drives 'Stake In The Heart' in that 'Trickle-Down' Nonsense
WASHINGTON -- A Congressional Research Service report that was reissued Thursday after Republicans complained about it before the elections still finds little evidence that the Bush-era tax cuts spurred growth or that hiking the top rates would have more than a "negligible" impact on the economy. The CRS study did find, however, that the lower tax rates in place since 2001 have had a strong impact on increasing income inequality in America.
The 'trickle-down' scam did help those it was intended to help. It's been 32 years of fucking the middle-class. When you have a country where 400 people have more wealth than fifty-percent of the population - over 150 million people - you know it worked well for those 400.
