nothing 'trickle down' about it. it's simply an observable truth that when the 'rich' are taxed more, they have less to invest. and investment in business is what creates jobs.

our tax and regulate policies erode the value of our labor. as the value of labor erodes there are fewer jobs and jobs that pay less.

if you really wanted the best for everyone, you would want a strong thriving economy above just about anything else. the best way to get that kind of economy is with free markets and freedom in general.

you believe that people in general are evil and must be controlled. you don't see that control itself is evil and freedom enhances goodness in people. you can make a good dog mean if you're mean to it long enough and a government can do the same thing to its citizens.
