Excellent piece, Michelangelo! Another “example” of trickle down is the volume of layoffs underway by the 1 per cent—at Twitter, Facebook and now Amazon, to name the major ones—that demonstrate their ruthlessness and cruelty. They could be using their tax breaks and accumulated revenue to develop innovative products and services that keep employees on the payroll, but no, they just cut off tens of thousands of employees to achieve an immediate gain to please their fellow 1 per cent investor. Yet that grease stained mechanic in Paducah or that frustrated housewife in Pierre somehow think that the Republicans care for them. How can we get through to them?
