Trickle down economics

A Failed economic policy that asserts that if you give tax cuts to the rich the profits will trickle down to the lower classes.
Time has shown that this Regan policy is nothing more then a scam to give the rich a Free Ride in society

Trickle down economics don't trickle down on me! Where's my money and my job? They been outsourced by some elitist rich snob.

econocult

Any scheme or organization that promises quick financial rewards for little effort, esp. those that attempt to show a happy 'community of users'. Usually promotes itself with many (often over-emphatic) so-called personal testimonials.

Examples of econocults:

"Sign up 5 of your friends to our great offers, and get a FREE Ipod!"

"I earned over $20,000 in the first five minutes on the Amazing Crazy Cash system!"
