A tax system that does not induce business reinvestment to expand the labor force creating cash flow and a larger taxable base thereby lessening available public investment dollars in municipal, state or Federal Government infrastructure.
As higher taxable income earners are able to keep more of their money in their banks or offshore and not reinvesting in their own nation which would expand cash flow and the taxable base, less money is available for municipalities, states and the Federal Government to fill potholes, repair schools and hospitals, fund environmental clean-up, hire more teachers and nurses, improve our electric grid and other infrastructure.

Potholes in city streets, rusting bridges, cracked highway pavement, under funded Super Fund sites, massive teacher lay-offs, nursing lay-offs, public park closings, under funded emergency services are all examples of Crumble Down Economics.

What happens when trickle down economics doesn't work. A form of economic policy where the poorest body in an economic community becomes politically self depricating in the hopes they will one day become rich with no garrentee, or even counter evidence, that there will be any kind of pay off in the foreseeable future

Heyy it's Sophie from economics

n.
The worst and most absolutely illogical form of world capitalism. Holds that if you give money to people who are already rich, it will be invested and slowly "trickle down" to the hands of those who need the money. Doesn't ever work, and has no logic at all. Practiced by rightards and Republicunts. Was responsible for the economic disaster that was the Great Depression.

If you conservative dumbshits want the commies to come back, then just keep practicing those trickle-down economics...

n. The most absurd economic theory that ever existed. It includes giving the rich large sums of money. Accordingly, the wealthy will then hoarde the money into banks and there will therefore, be less money in circulation.
Herbert Hoover used trickle down economics, taking money from the poor and giving it to the wealthy. He is responsible for the Great Depression.

When the police place an 18-wheeler full of expensive electronics near a group of niggers rigged to close when a nigger is caught stealing the items.
These nigger traps are often placed near KFC's and/or McDonald's, or at your local hospital emergency room.
This is often confused with a bucket of fried chicken, bananas, and watermelon.
