"trickle down economics is a myth"
>>
>>68540329
In a globalized society it is. Don't see anything wrong with this statment.
>>
FUCK I HATE THIS SHIT. Leftists constantly scream "muh no trickle down economics" thinking that trickle down refers to giving more money to wealthy and letting it make its way to poor people. But what keyenes referred to as trickle down economics was raising government spending so that money would trickle to the working class, TRICKLE DOWN ECONOMICS IS A FUCKING IDEA BASED IN LEFTIST PRINCIPLE.
>>
So is Keysnian economics
>>
>>68540453
why does it change when its global?
>>
yeah trickle down doesn't work...so you have to give the government more money because if they have lots of money there will be more jobs.....shit that sounds like trickle down

In America trickle down economics is associated with supply side economics otherwise known as reaganomics. Don't play dumb faggot.

Right, which is why even the poorest people in america have obesity, cell phones, and flatscreen tvs.

Can someone explain to this moron that wealth is more than just greenbacks?

Its bullshit because money and goods are all subjectively valued theyre only worth what the opinions of the buyer and seller align to be. money has no truly agreeable and stable value at the communal level

Money doesn't stay inside the country and therefore isn't recycled back into its market.

that's just technology

real wages have been stagnant or declining for most people

lmao so it just goes to china and stays there? then why do all Chinese billionaires vacation in america? sure thats not much coming back butthe money always cycles just in more complex ways

>>68540830
But theres nothing about trickle down in supply side ideas....

And what's the most free-market industry in America?

The tech industry, right.

Can you do the rest of the thinking here or do I have to write a thousand words explaining why Sanders is wrong and stupid?

> thats just technology

"real wages" is subjective, sustenance and luxuries are a better measure of wealth

Dude what? The tech industry has extremely close ties to the government.

I found a god Bern today:

"But on the flip side of these strapping, rugged men there’s you. A Bernie Sanders sycophant with not quite enough self-worth to fill an egg cup. Or a teaspoon. Certainly not enough to fill your bong. Take a good long puff before you read the rest of this, it’s not going to get any better. I’m not going to make you a sandwich either. May I recommend a Hot Pocket?"

Are you seriously suggesting that Chinese billionaires vacating in US would be enough to counter the bleeding money that goes to foreign markets? Trickle down economics don't work as well in a globalized market than a nationalized market because a big portion of the money that rich is make is allowed to bleed out of US instead of getting invested back to the home market and indirectly creating jobs.. I don't really know how to put it in any simpler form than that.

holy shit it's not an opinion. Do you know what real money is? It has been declining faster the less money you make. The former treasury official even showed a graph on Morning Joe.

No im saying it will bleed out of the US but in a few years a few decades it will cycle back beause money can leave the country but it wont leave the earth it doesn't just evaporate and just how information travels person to person money will travel person to person no matter the size of the population

Some of it definitely will, but not all. Money is not a boomerang you can throw into the currents of world market and expect it all to come back.

Even if it all came back, a few decades is just too long time span to depend on.

If you think the poor in this country live in luxury, you're delusional. Obesity doesn't necessarily come from too much nutrients. It comes from too many calories. Many poor people are obese but still have deficiencies. Cell phones are more common than they were 30 years ago, but that's technological innovation, which owes a lot to the public sector as well as private innovation. Many people still have no cell phone. Small numbers of people don't have reliable electricity. I'm not sure where you got the idea that everybody here has a flat screen TV. That's bullshit and you know it.

So it's good for the economy NOW if the money is hoarded until maybe their great grandchildren spend it?

Again, you completely don't understand the concept of the velocity of money.

You're just here to shill for the rich, plutocrats and globalists.

Its not trickle down so much as it is drag up. Rich people want nice things, so they have to apend money and help nice things to start being made around them.some people call this gentrification.
You cant really deny that the standard of living available for the poor and lower class of americans has gone up drastically in recent times, even if their control of total wealth has gone down though.

Hey buddy, we're talking about job creation. Not unemployment rate.

Can you please try to apply your debunked talking points correctly?

I showed you a chart showing that the Obama economy has created over 14 million jobs.

So you claimed they're all part time.

I debunked that talking point.

Now you're jumping to your next failed talking point.

Perhaps the reason why you're so misinformed is because you get your information from
