    Because they’re grossly ignorant and still believe the debunked trickle down economics theory that fucking Reagan foisted on us all those years ago. And just like every other time they’ll act shocked when the economy goes even more to shit and find some way to shift blame to literally anyone but the GOP lawmakers that are plundering their wealth.

        Reagan simply rebranded an existing idea; trickle down used to be called Horse and Sparrow economics. This rigged game has been going on for a long time.
