text: u mean, like it did under reagan and W?
  ROFL.
  reagan gave a major tax cut that was KILLING the economy and raising deficit like never before. So, he rolled back the cuts on the MIDDLE class, and then kept the deficit, with money flowing to the military. IOW, he did nothing useful.
  
  Then we have W. The GOP caused great recession.
  
  
  Not trickle down. 
  it is tinkle down.
