> Giving money to the rich does not trickle down to people.
All of my well-paying tech jobs have been funded by VC money from rich people and/or IPO money from rich people. Same goes (indirectly and partially) for all the people who have been selling me goods and services over those same years.
- einpoklum 7y agoYeah, paying a few programmers high salaries doesn't quite count as trickling down. Let's say it's extremely-limited trickle down. > Same goes ... for all the people who have been selling me goods and services over those same years. No, it doesn't. Unless you only buy services from VC-financed startups?
