Is Trickle Down Economics a meme?

Holy shit this thread is full of irrational fucks who just hate the Green brothers but don't actually have anything consistent or meaningful to say.

>>OP
Of course it is. The middle class has been successfully eroded, and divided against each other with petty politics. Meanwhile the richest people on Earth primarily earn passively through Capital gains while enjoying the privlege to constantly learn, get fitter, stronger, smarter. They enjoy the best nutrition and health care on Earth. These gains don't trickle down because they use these gains to widen the gap and assure further wagecuckery from the masses, who are too busy shooting each other over whether traps are gay or something.

The Green brothers give plenty to charity. The fact that they don't give it to you individually is probably because you haven't gone to them with any decent ideas.

>>4722429
Fool. This is what investing is. And imagine being in-touch enough with your own flaws and the nature of the world that you know that there might actually be a kid out there who deserves startup money more than your own. Aren't you guys always complaining about Jewish nepotism on here? But now you're calling someone cucked because they're NOT a nepotist. Jesus Christ. Get it together.

Capitalism works best when 1 person doesn't hold more wealth than the bottom half of the country.

Capitalism works best when there are rules and regulations in place to prevent private institutions from poisoining people and violating private property.

Capitalism works best when the poorest are upwardly mobile, and when the richest are kept in check.

Sorry, bud. FDR style Capitalism is better than the shitfest we have now, and no amount of /pol/ catchphrases can fix that.

There's a reason we trust internet meme money more than the deflating piece-of-shit USD right now.

>> No.4723456

People who get rich due to luck factors usually don't know what to do with more money, that's why they advocate so much for redistribution. Actors, youtubers, money skeletons, people who leech others like kikeberg.

Other people, the ones who get rich by producing massive amount of wealth for society, whenever money falls into their lap they transform it in jobs and cheaper products for society.

This is why you cannot apply broad stroke policies, if this cuck doesn't know what to do with money he should just give it away, the best you can do for society, if you have tons of money and no clue what to do with it, is hire someone who knows what to do and invest in people and projects that will create jobs.

No. It clearly works to an extent. The bottom is raised. The difference between top and bottom gets larger, and that's what people complain about. But the reality is that we are eliminating poverty at an unprecedented rate.

He's absolutely wrong. I can explain it for anyone interested, because I actually understand the economy.

Hank green doesn't put his money back into the economy because he is an idiot. Real rich people put their millions back into the economy, get it back, and do it all over again.

Hank is only willing to make YouTube videos and make "vidcons" and shit like that. He's that price of shit that says "ok I know I need to contribute to society but instead I'll just goof around with my guitar and you guys will give monies to me, that's all I'm willing to do for society sorry!"
