9. When has "trickle down" economics ever worked as advertised.

Never. It's just the republican way of wealth redistribution...to the already wealthy. It sounded fishy the first time it was brought up, it's obvious now that it's a scam. The only people who seriously talk about it at this point are either rich and greedy or in the media kissing up to those same rich people. Which means we get to continue hearing about it as if it were a legitimate economic plan. Nobody in the middle and lower economic classes thinks it actually works. Never has, never will. The rich will horde the money before ever "trickling" any of it to anybody else.
