Let me ask you one thing in addition: can you explain why "trickle-down" economics is superior to "trickle-up" economics: where the money goes directly to those poorest who need it, cutting out the middle-men; and then when they spend it until it inevitably trickles up to businesses and the more well-off? How does does "trickle-down" economics compare to that?
