ecobamics

The re-redistribution of wealth from the spitefully rich to the woefully poor.

In his first term, President Obama intends to give working class folks a break through tax breaks that end the "trickle down economics of the Regan/Bush era to the new age of ecobamics and the rise of environmentally friendly technology.

voodoo economics 

Ronald Alzheimer Reagan's "supply-side economics"

The only recorded instance of a true statement made by a member of the Bush dynasty was in 1980, when George H.W. Bush attacked Reagan's snake-oil economic disaster in the making by calling it "voodoo economics." He later ate those words when he became vice-president, began kissing up to reactionaries, and discovered how lucrative deregulation of the S&L's was to embezzlers like his sons Neil and Jeb.

Tinkle Down Economics 

1) System of record low taxes for the wealthiest and low, stagnant wages for the working poor leading the poor and middle class families and individuals to struggle make ends meet.

2) The preferred conservative economic system which essentially tell the the poor and middle class "piss on you!".

Former president Ronald Reagan and other conservatives praise their system of Trickle Down Economics, but what they really mean is "Tinkle Down Economics" - as in Piss On You poor and middle class people.

helicopter economics 

When the monetary authorities put a seemingly unlimited amount of money into the financial system in order to stimulate the economy; as if they were flying around in helicopters and dropping money from the sky. This usually results in substantial inflation and sometimes hyperinflation.

The Federal Reserve's excessive easy money policy is helicopter economics at its worst.

trickle-down economics 

See greed

The great thing about trickle-down economics is that every time I purchase a new yacht or Humvee it helps out every member of society. Don't see this five course meal and seven hundred dollar bottle of wine as an example of greed and excessive consumption, think of it as a consumer-based economic stimulus package. Now then, what's fifteen percent of three thousand dollars? Or maybe I should only tip ten, the waiter forgot to put THREE lemons in my water!
