Aus Mastodon von Michael Albert übernommen:

Britische Forscher haben herausgefunden, dass Steuersenkungen für Reiche keinen (Trickle-Down-) Effekt auf den Wohlstand eines Landes haben. Die Reichen werden lediglich reicher und die Ungleichheit steigt.

    I’ve been seeing these headlines my whole life, and the only thing that changes is the amount of time. – 25 years of data disproves trickle-down economics – Experts agree, 30 years later, trickle-down doesn’t work – After four decades, trickle-down finally debunked – Thanks economists, but you really don’t need to keep researching this; a lack of evidence isn’t the problem.
