Trickle Down for dummies

So, ...


There is this argument that once you made a certain amount of dollars, its kindof sad to see half of it go away. Like, you work hard, well - you think thats what you do while you chase opportunity and get successful, and then you got something you can work with but ... woop, the government comes and takes away, lets say ... a million.
Whats a Million Dollars? No really, what is it?

It is a lot! And so, can I agree with Trump? I may not be an American but we all can 'pretend' we're put into that situation and met with those kinds of challenges.

What trickle down here says is that if your employee has more money to spend, more of that money will arrive back at you. You will be able to spend more, the market will grow, ... boom. With people being all about spending money there are plenty of opportunities for people to start a business ... and so on and so forth.
I experienced a situation of taxation that was beyond what the respective business could possibly effort. Some dude went around measuring the space we have available and slapped a price tag on that. "So much". Flat. Non-negotiable. Oh yea, plus the TVs in the rooms, that costs extra.

At least that was the situation for the greek Burger Store down the road. Ours weren't hooked to any broadcasting. ... don't remember that well. But the gist of it is still that.

This video up there sheds some more Light into a situation ... where the 'sick' joke is that the government takes money ... and does scammy business with it. I got to think of it that way: If you're really rich - and your annual income would allow you to buy two houses - that means that the government gets one house per year, from you. Thats one way to think of it. What does the government do with your money?

But still this 1% guy is missing a few points. And I think it is best comprehensible to his kind when describing 'common interest' as an entrepreneur. It is the issue that 'we' as a whole have interests that cannot be described within the free market. When you say "give me a tax break", others say "me too". And we all resort to that "thing" which is to somehow negotiate between our interests.
And so he would go on and say that if you have more money to spend, you don't need medicare to be payed by the government.


And therein you have freedom. You don't need to be registered or anything to get it. You just got to have money.
And so that side of the story is the issue that you have money in your hands that others want to have a piece of. And you got to think that its yours. You once maybe thought you'd have all that money at your leisure. You wanted to spend it. And some people don't trust that you'd be spending it well. Others would argue that nobody needs a personal income above a certain point. So, I have a little story to tell.

Once upon a time things were simpler. People would learn from their ancestors what it meant to survive, children would inherit the businesses of their parents; But nowadays we live in a more open world. You can't get old in this day and age without being shown lots and lots of different opportunities - and you're supposed to be free about what you are going to do. And so times are changing.

We don't live in a world where independent entrepreneurship is all that liable anymore. It makes no sense as it defeats the purpose of what the future holds. We live in a world where common wealth is a term, that ... 'something' ... that is possible by labour if all we did was coordinating our effort. The average worker doesn't really care 'whom' he or she is working for, and I'd be willing to bet that they would prefer it if their work meant any good.
In this sense are the rich not supposed to get rich, but workers that funnel wealth back into the system. Thats what it is all about, right? Get more so you can spend more!
