    Oh come on. It’s very clear who the champions and vanguard of trickle down economics are. It’s fatuous to “both sides” this issue.

      I think it’s objectively absurd to look at a 40-year old policy and try not to acknowledge that it’s been adopted by the Democratic Party.

        This is a story about the UK…

        Your point makes slightly more sense if you’re talking about the US instead. I still think it’s silly to ascribe equal blame to the instigators of the idea and a party that fails to push the tide the other way because of inertia and political expediency.

        I mean the centre ground if fucked over there, so you have my sympathy.

          Yeah, I was talking about the US.

          It’s not inertia, though. The Dems have had the power to make meaningful change several times in the past four decades. Their failure to do so is a choice they’ve made repeatedly.
