    It’s just about to trickle down, I can feel it.

    Maybe if we just work harder and in worse conditions?

    I mean, it’s impossible on its face. That’s like saying “In how many futures did 1+1 literally equal 7?”

    It was never possible. Nobody who knew anything about economics truly thought it would work.

    It was just a money grab, and like all money grabs, they don’t care about how it looks in the future. They figured they’d be able to bullshit about it later. That’s it.

    Why do you think it is that when we send humanitarian aid to a country where people are starving, that we have to figure out how to keep their local government from stealing all of it? It’s because it’s an immediate practical demonstration of trickle down economics.
