You dolts have so many excuses why you can't succeed in life it's pathetic.

Always got to blame it on the big bad wealthy boogie man, why don't you lil bitches grow some and quit faulting others for you own failures.

So I'm gone for five hours and nobody has had the decency to answer my question. Just something about trickle down being a vehicle, which makes about as much sense as a rabbit wearing a pancake. Harumph. cn

LMAO, So in your mind, supply side economics should make the middle class and poor rich, and the income of the wealthy should go down?

Let's see!

Take two typical middle class carpenters in California who make $65,000 per year.
Carpenter #1 does side jobs on the weekend, saves his money and starts investing it in the stock market and real estate.
Carpenter #2 doesn't want to spend his weekends or after work hours working anymore, he wants to go water skiing, attend concerts, camping and spends his little bit of extra money on dirt bikes, a ski boat, or a new Harley.

15 years go by and carpenter #1 now owns income property and makes an extra $ $60,000 a year on his rental properties, He flipped a few of his properties and made a few hundred thousand in the process, now, between his stock investments and rental income, carpenter #1 has an annual income over $200k and is ready for an early retirement.

Carpenter #2 is still working his 40hr week but 15yrs later he's up to $80,000, all throughout that 15 yrs he spent his money unwisely, him and his family bought a house they couldn't afford, they borrowed too much money against it, all the while hoping the market would continue to go up.
Carpenter #2 is now loosing his house, he blames the lenders for talking him into a loan he couldn't afford, it doesn't matter that he used that money to buy a new ski boat, it's all trickle down economics and the capitalists fault for the dire straits he finds himself in.

Income disparity charts are for the fools who find themselves on the bottom of that chart!

You forgot about carpenter #3.....an illegal.
Him and his illegal crew come in, undercut the others on price, and drive the first two out of business.

Of course it doesn't make sense to you, it only makes sense to people who work and want to get ahead in life.
I know a few idiots with a masters that don't have a pot to piss in, so using your theory, higher education is a major FAIL.

i had no idea that work ethic was a prerequisite to analyzing economic policies.

i posit the theory that you are dealing in logical fallacies as a defense mechanism from admitting that the economic policy you advocate is a demonstrable failure.

it's adorable yet irksome, like watching a baby throw a temper tantrum. since you're (presumably) an adult and not a baby, i will simply advise you to wipe the sand out of your vagina.

Oh my. How have you learned so very very much about me? Does your concept of right and wrong countenance treating others as ... diminished, not entirely persons, according to whatever prejudiced fantasy you have concerning their nature? cn

Thanks, but I just want to understand what he posted. After all, he posted that first graph as a comparison of something that the graph did not display. So, I want to see what the second graph showed but I think I hurt his feelings.

i find it amusing that even after you were shown how to view graph and cannabineer restated question that you remain silent.

I find it amusing that you can't follow what is going on. Yes. I was given advice on how to view the charts IF I had Internet Exploder or Firefox, I have Safari.
