4. This is a trickle down recovery
and we know that doesn't work. It's a recovery where the biggest companies do all the recovering and the only benefit goes to the executives and the shareholders.

David Stockman, Reagan's economic guy eventually admitted the trickle down theory was bullshit.

That's why Bush can keep talking up the economy and spouting numbers except that it's not going to affect the average person. Even those getting jobs are getting jobs paying less with less benefits which isn't exactly causing them to whoop and holler for Bush.
