What are the facts about "Trickle Down" as it has been told to us? Prof. Mark Blyth of Browns University tells that the RAND Corporation looked into it. They looked at the years 1975 to 2018. They measured the  
growth in productivity and produced a graph with expected gains to the different income levels in society.  
They also produced a trace of where the gains went. RAND's statement. "From 1975 to 2018, the difference between the aggregate taxable income for those below the 90th percentile and the equitable growth counterfactual totals $47 trillion." The professor said that it all "trickled up"!  
Where was the News media? Maybe they did not want to annoy the advertisers.  
Where were the Political parties? Maybe just blaming all bad times on the Party in power.

I dont think there is a human on this earth that really believes the trickle down theory.  
 
But I would say don't give up, we are at the edge of the singularity, our world is about to be propelled into a vastly different place. If we decide not to blow ourselves up we will find ourselves in a world of abundance.

trickles down onto the rich and company bank accounts. It's why only the rich get richer. Reducing tax for multi billion/million dollar companies doesn't equal better wages and benefit for employees.
