Trickle down economics would only work if you gave them a tax cut, and then forced them to spend whatever money they saved. And then they'd have to ensure that the money is being spent in ways that benefit the working class, like supporting a small business or union shop. But they never take it that extra step, so it will always fail. it's only ever been a handout to the wealthy, designed to inspire loyalty and garner future favors.
