Anyone here ever buy a used car? Ever? If you have you are enjoying the benefits of "trickle down effect". Do the rich buy used cars? No, they don't. When they end up selling or trading that not so new anymore car it's sold as used. That's "trickle down effect". It happens and it works. People who can't afford a brand new car buy a used one they can afford thanks to the better off person who bought the new one. That's trickle down. To say it doesn't happen or doesn't work is not at all accurate.There are lots more examples than this and of course there are exceptions to the above example but hopefully you get the point.Not to mention the added labor, parts, employment from the rich buying the things others cannot until it's sold as used. All trickle down. Edited by Chuck77, : No reason given.Edited by Chuck77, : No reason given.

According to who? Where in my post do you see me name those makers of cars? I said new cars. Not really. The rich would still buy new cars, it's just they wouldn't be pumping as much money into the economy if they were taxed more. They would be fine, and you would be worse off. Maybe if they didn't tax the rich so much you would have a better paying job at some nice factory one of the rich peoples opened before the taxing came. More taxes, no trickle down. Heheh. Not really. If they didn't tax the rich, you might have a nicer car because of it because you might be working at that new factory.

Hi NoNukes. I'm glad I could draw you out of lurking mode to "have a little fun" with my post. I'm honored to have had you read one of my posts several times. Huh? The people that buy used cars who arent rich have jobs don't they? Those jobs created my the rich help them to afford the cars also bought by the rich. That's trickle down. That's one side of trickle down, sure. It is if you have a job because of the rich people forwarding the country pumping money into it by means of business, labor, jobs that they created and you get to also buy the news cars they don't want anymore instead of a winter beater. It's all trickle down. No no...the rich are smarter with money than the no so rich. That's how most of them got to where they are. They know how to take money and make more money with it, while at the same time, spread it around so the country is better off for it.Giving the not so rich person a bunch of money and it's "me me me me me". Giving it to the rich (or not taking it from them in taxes) benefits everyone instead of just individuals for a certain period of time. Less tax on the rich, more stimulus. More tax on the rich, less stimulus.

Let's just spread the wealth around to everyone throughout the whole country. Then, for a few months, everyone will be ok. After a while, the wealth will be tranfered back over to the rich, because they know how to spread it around, feed and stimulate the economy, while the not so rich, will squander it.Trickle down isn't just material. It's a mentality also. Socialism isn't the answer to spreading the wealth. Learning how to handle finances and making it work for you (like the rich do) will stimulate the economy more than trying to even the field in regards to taxing the rich more IMO.Is there anyone here that agrees that there is a certain mentality involved here?

Hi Dr Adequate. Please see my "Top Ten signs your a foolish atheist" thread will you. I think you'll like it. You may be able to even see yourself in some of the top ten. If you have a hard time recognizing which one's let me know, and i'll point them out to you.Other than that, do you have anything in relation to my post to comment on?
