you just read what you wanted to read
trickle down works in the sense it makes the overall system more efficient and increases the productivity of the nation. It probably works for the middle but I made no guarantees
blaming trickle down when globalization and gender equality are the dominant economic forces in the past 40 years is silly. The middle class hasn't seen pay increases in the past 30 years primarily because of gender equality and globalization. More workers=less price of labor.
before you scream sexist at me I'm not advocating government intervention and preventing women who want to work to work in order to bring about higher labor prices, thats what a leftist might do. These are just the facts.
