Time to do the right thing. Trickle down economics has failed and during the time that the failed experiment was conducted ON the middle class the wealthy have gotten wealthier while the poor got poorer, and more numerous and the middle class has been squeezed to the point of becoming an endangered species.

In other words- the rich did not trickle anything upon the middle class- instead they had their cup runneth over and then built a trench to assure that not a drop fell to the middle class.

If you don't feel like doing the right thing- the patriotic thing that the Republican party is always touting as it asks for more and more sacrifice by the have nots so that the haves can have it all- then how about you simply face the music and realize that it is time to reverse the flow- the transfer of wealth that was "trickle down economics" was the transfer of wealth from the bottom 95% of America into the coffers of the top 5% of America.

Don't do the patriotic thing, do the right thing and allow at least recognize and then ADMIT that the top 5% have benefited from a theft of huge proportions and they CONTINUE to do so. No sir, we couldn't step in and assist the homeowners as they were losing their homes- but now we will step in and rescue the banks who wrote the bad loans, foreclosed on the small people after they leached all they could from them, and now who now want US to bail them out by buying up all that worthless paper from them.

Oh, yeah... that's the patriotic thing to do, right?

Stop whining and do th right thing for America- you'll feel better for it and yes... you'll be a patriot too, just like the people who donate their time and effort everyday because that is all they have to give... the top 5% can take the easy way out and just pay their taxes without crying about it.

And pardon me, but isn't it the REPUBLICAN PARTY who is bailing out and buying up failed business' left and right? Let me see./... government owned bussiness... would that not be the communist way?

The DEMOCRATS are the ones always left to clean up the mess after the Republican Party leaves the country a wreck. Be glad that the party exists to balance the scales or there would have been a revolution long ago.
