Back in the 1800s, supply-side economics was called the horse & sparrow theory, the belief that if you fed the horse plenty of oats, enough would pass through onto the road to feed the sparrows.
A perfect descriptor for this horseshit idea.

Today, Republicans prefer to call it trickle-down economics because what theyre actully doing is pissing on your leg and telling you its raining.
The truth is this #GOPTaxScam is nothing but a huge tax cut for the rich at the expense of everyone else.

But can this tax sham be repealed once Democrats are in control?

(129,053 posts)7. Of course anything can be repealed as
nothing is set in stone. However the issue would not only be trying to have enough votes to reverse the whole thing, but having enough to override the certain Drumpf veto.

dream of protesting Congress was driving a horse drawn cart full of manure, delivered and unloaded on the steps of Congress.
A perfect descriptor for this horseshit idea.
Thank you, Mr. Dingell and demmiblue
