It beats the hell out of Odumbo/Democrap Trickle Up Poverty.
Isn't 23 million Americans out of work enough for you Odumbos?
Isn't 50 million Americans on food stamps and poverty enough?
How many will it take for you to learn? What is wrong with you people?

According to the National Science Foundation one in five Americans still believes the sun revolves around the earth. That's not a lack of education, but outright denial and if there is anything republicans have turned into an art form it's denial. If women get pregnant by rape, it's the will of God. "I am not a thief" as Tricky **** said.

Because neoliberals are monetarists. A caveat - while I am voting for him, Obama and his economic team are still trickle down. They are not supply side economists because to be that they would not be investment bankers who contribute nothing productive.
A republican like Teddy Roosevelt (far more liberal than any Democrat today) realized that people had to earn sufficient money to afford the goods they were laboring to make. He was reviled and had no second term because the moneyed interests saw him as a threat.
