Trickle-Down Economics aka Supply-Side Economics aka Reaganomics aka Voodoo economics is the worst thing that has ever happened to this country. A main part of trickle-down economics is tax cuts for the rich, which is something I am strongly against. Also, another main part is deregulation, which is primarily what led to the Great Recession.

Deregulation had nothing to do with the recession. Government intervention in the economy caused it.

If you don't believe me, you can read more about how your anti-regulation ideology led to this recession in this articles:

http://www.swifteconomics.com/2009/05/25/is-deregulation-to-blame-well-kinda/

In fact, the only people who seem to still believe deregulation is good are people who are either uneducated, people who are partisan hacks who refuse to admit that their policies don't work, or people who are both. Perhaps you can give me some actual sources and evidence that it was government intervention that caused this recession.

No, I'm not going to read more lies and BS from you or from anyone else.

Try reading something that's actually accurate for a change.

If you aren't going to read anything that might prove that you're wrong, and only believe sources that suggest everything you say and believe is correct, then you are simply too immature and irrational to be taken seriously. How do you know what I posted is accurate if you don't even read it?

Unlike you, I actually read the sources you provided. The article you posted is mostly filled with partisan ideas and theory that have already been tried multiple times in the past, and have been discredited, and are not based on reality.

Anyways, perhaps I should stop talking to you before I make you even more angry then you are already.

Lol, so you surrender. That wasn't too difficult.

"Partisan ideas and theory that have already been tried multiple times in the past"? Haha.

No, I didn't surrender. I've already provided evidence that proves what I believe is accurate. Like I posted earlier, you're just too immature and too irrational to even read it. The people who are reading this thread can check the sources I provided, and check for themselves. Until you respond to what I posted, then maybe we should assume that what I posted is accurate, and the source you posted in partisan. After all, the article you posted is in fact from an institute that promotes libertarian ideology, without showing any other points of view. Therefore, it is in fact, partisan. LOL

Trickle-down isn't economics, so it's a paradox.

Well, at least I'm not the only person here who actually knows the truth.

This is actually probably the most intelligent post I've seen on this thread. Of course the government bares some blame as well for this recession. However, it was not the kind of government intervention that Libertas suggested was the cause of the recession.
