55. Ah, but it wasn't "trickle down" economics in the 1980s
it was rechristened "supply side" economics. Same shit, different day.

and, it was Compassionate Conservatism under Bush. More SSDD.

It's the repackaging & rebranding that allows it to stick around. If we had a media, they would have destroyed Reagan for the idea back in 1980.
