> "Trickle-down economics" is not any kind of formal economic or political philosophy, it's a pejorative term designed to trivialise free market/laissez-faire economic policies.

So much simping for neofeudalism. "Trickle down economics" is not a pejorative for basic free market ideals, instead it's an accurate term for corporate welfare where large companies and the rich are showered with cash and tax deductions hoping they'll spend their wealth here.

btw, the real "pejorative" is from GHW Bush: "voodoo economics".
