“Tricle down economics is when the rich piss on your head and the government is telling you that it’s raining”
- The Juice Media
It’s actually continue with: the 2% get 1% of the 1% wealth, and the 97% get 0.01% of the 2% wealth.
Trickledown-economics is like dumping money in a bottomless pit hoping that it will one day overflow.
Basically it’s like a rich person getting all the money then they spend (piss) it on garbage (what they think of you) and it trickles down (gets taxed) and then a small portion gets spent on social programs. So basically you get the dregs of the piss that was a necessary part of them spending money on themselves and they hate you for it.
This is not her saying That’s it meaning that it’s the end of the story, but her saying that it’s inappropriate to ask for any specifics about capitalism. Like OK that’s it, no internet for you
Weird take.
“So when exactly will it tickle down?”
“That’s the need part, it doesn’t.”
Need part?
I’m guessing it’s “neat.”

Ooh, my favorite
“the 1% get all the money” “And then what” “They get to hoard it”
This is accurate.
It’s obvious that it doesn’t work from the moment you first hear about it.
You don’t become the wealthy elite by accident. You do it by hoarding money.
So if someone gives you more free money, you’ll just hoard it like you’re already doing.
Can you believe people ate this shit up? Yeah I wanna be a sparrow, you can be the horse whose droppings I’m eating. Fuck you.
