Again, I'm not calling you stupid - I don't know you. 

We disagree on trickle down. It has helped increase income disparity, and helped (along with NAFTA and the like) decimate our middle class while increasing misery around the world. A rather bad outcome wouldn't you say? Of course it's based on an economy that no longer exists, so no wonder. Of course those are those pesky little facts again. You might try an unbiased source - assuming you haven't demonized academia like so many of your ilk.

I stand by my thesis that anyone who rabidly follows the conservative agenda and failed policies is stupid. This, because they aren't working, they freely ignore or cherry pick facts, and are a step back (a big step back) for our democracy (it's a democratic republic by the way). Compare the US metrics for infant mortality, incarceration rates, violent crime, income equality, education, working hours, time off, etc to almost any other developed nation. Is this something to be proud of?
