You act like the tax cuts only hit the rich. It was a % cut that affected everyone.

Yes the rich got a bigger sum back, but the same percent.

Which increases demand/output/profit in the TV industry, the middle-men selling it, and a whole lot of positive things to get the economy going again. They in turn spend the money on a new car/food/cloths/etc and gee wiz look we have a growing economy.

Only retards would stuff it anywhere. If nothing else they put it in a bank, which uses it to hand out loans which lead to investment which leads to growth.

Trickle-down enriches the already wealthy while the underpriviledged have to wait at the feet of the rich hoping for a few small squeezings. It not only is a flawed economic policy, it's a damned heartless one as well.
If Bush's tax cuts were the same as Reagan that may be so, but they didnt give them anymore of a cut than anyone else in America.
