Americans made more money in every major metro area in 2018

Says who? You? You should get out in the real world. I went to a rich mans house not long ago and when I got there, there was an air-condition tech, a few guys cutting the grass, 2 painting the house and me. The house keeper answered the door when I went to let them know I was there. That was an amazing "trickle down" sight I have ever seen.

 

you should get out more, do you seriously think the rich person would hire more of those same people with a bigger tax cut? don't be silly, they hire those people with or without the tax cut as they are not gonna do that work themselves

the rich already spend what they need, give the tax cuts to the working class and they will spend it and that dollar will touch more hands

 

You said trickle down doesn't work. I gave you an example that it does.

 

no, you failed to show me where tax cuts for the rich tricked down

do you think that guy would have done those things himself if not for the tax cuts?

 

How was my example not trickle down? Your definition of it may be different than mine. Also, if you work, you got a tax cut too.

 

"trickle down" refers to the rich tricking down because of tax cuts for the rich - never works

do you think Trump will trickle down more with a tax cut than he did when he had billions in the bank before the tax cut?

Trump hired overseas, hired illegals, Trump avoided trickling down as much as he could - many corps do the same

my tax cut was not as big as promised by Trump, he con'd the people, he took from our return to raise our paychecks, then people went to file and were shocked that they owed or got smaller returns

 

Still no trickle down definition. So it's Trumps fault that people couldn't figure out if they got a tax cut (paid less taxes) that their return would be less? Maybe next time he can send out a memo.

 

disagree, many believe we are close to a recession if not a depression the likes of 1929

Trump is setting record debt highs never seen under any President before him, where did the tea party go?

 

Stop being such a Debbie Downer, it's Depressing to listen to Liberals complain when the American Economy is doing so Well right now. I'm not sure what it is about Liberals, because if you can't get a Job, invest in the American Economy right now and become a Financial Success, you're either not very intelligent, unmotivated or just someone that when Times are good, sits there and complains, while everyone else around them is becoming Financially Independent and Successful. This is what happens to Liberals when all the avenues to Financial Well being are open, but because they're so use to suckling at the Teet of Government that they allow opportunities to pass them by. So Sad it must be to be a Liberal that wants a Government Mommy to Powder their Bottom when they get a Rash instead of having a little Pride and working hard to become Financially Independent and not have to rely on anyone else to Burp Them. Liberals are not afraid of Recessions or Depressions, they already have nothing and if they start at Zero and lose half of all their Savings, it's still going to going to be at Zero.

 

disagree all you want, it's what libs do.

U.S. Consumer Comfort Reaches Highest Level in More Than 19 Years

U.S. consumer confidence advanced last week to the highest level in more than 19 years on increased optimism about the economy, personal finances and the buying climate.

it's Trump's fault that he changed the rules and no one from his government educated the people on that change and in fact purposefully deceived them by pretending it was his tax cut giving them extra on their pay check vs telling the truth that he was just taking from their next years return

 

reality is, the interest rates are still low and the fed is flooding the economy with billions... not the sign of a strong economy, but one that is on the verge of collapse and needs propping up

 

Are you seriously being serious? Wow! Just wow!

 

you may support Trump's con job, not everyone does

 

Can you just think for a minute please? Think about it. You are working and over paying for your taxes every payday. That's why you get a refund! So Trump gets you a tax cut and so you pay less taxes, more money in your pocket. Less money that you OVERPAY! Doesn't it then make sense your refund will be less than before?

 

the reality is, most of that increase on your paycheck came from taking the money from your return, Trump tricked people into believing that money came from his tax cut

 

Is your Google broken?

Trickle-down economics
Description
Trickle-down economics, also called trickle-down theory, refers to the economic proposition that taxes on businesses and the wealthy in society should be reduced as a means to stimulate business investment in the short term and benefit society at large in the long term. Wikipedia

 

Whoa! Oh wow! WOW! I need to step back from this conversation. Just WOW!

 

I don't need google or wiki to teach me what I have experiencef in real life! Go back to my post in this thread. Trickle down is real.

 

you need to educate yourself, I would of praised Trump if the working class got a 15% tax cut like the mega corps, instead they just got a temporary carrot and not much of a carrot it turns out

sorry I bursted your bubble, and shined some light on the truth - lol, go ahead and take some time to let it soak in....

 

Then why do you keep asking questions you don't want the answer to?

 

What questions?

 

No. People deny they’ like President Trump for a fear of having their teeth’s knocked out by tolerant Democrats

 

It's an actual quote and yes, most everything Obama said was silly.

Obama to Trump: 'What magic wand do you have?'

it's trump supporters sucker punching people, not the other way around

that said, I am a dem and fear wearing or putting bumper stickers on my car due to crazy republican, so I can believe your side is the same
