Pretty striking, no?

Reminds me of this. Still trying to understand all this talk of the soaring economy and roaring comeback taking place.

US GDP has been going nowhere since the end of the Sugar High Tax Cut Bump even being helped by overzealous deregulation. It was going nowhere before the Pandemic and it is certainly going nowhere now. In fact, overzealous deregulation has simply biased the fossil fuel industry over everything else. That has not really worked out for America now has it.

When you look at the downturns in the markets (red) it seems most of them line up with a republican administration. Up, up, up and then crash. Rinse and repeat. The rich get richer and the average investor has to almost start over again because their gains have disappeared into the pockets of the people who create the bubbles and then burst them.
people have been falling for their trickle down crap since i was a little kid.
You mean working because of it.

no, i mean the companies/most wealthy people have historically kept a huge chunk for themselves.
please tell me you're rich. if you're poor or middle class it's really sad that you did't know that.
If you like not being in the top ten percent, then yes, it's working.
riiiight. They keep it in mattresses.
LAFFRIOT!
my not being in the top ten percent has nothing to do with others being there.
Silliness.
Lol, keep voting against unions. Keep voting for right to work states and you'll never get there. I hope you are happy helping to support the top ten percent, your masters.

okay, so you actually don't know about the research.
please tell me you're rich.
Being in a union ain't gettin anybody in the top ten percent that's for sure.
You remind me of Jed Clampett. Remember that one episode where JEd asked MR Drysdale if he could come down to the bank and see his money sitting in the vault?
LAFF
my cousin, who is in the worst financial shape of anyone in my family/extended family/wife's family/wife's extended family, fights tooth and nail for the most wealthy people in our country. he's filed bankruptcy once and it now disabled and is barely surviving.
it's a really weird group of people. they punch themselves in the balls daily.
hey, if you don't know about the research just say so. no need to run away.
research? what the hell is that?
