Bonus points if it’s usually misused/misunderstood by the people who say it

    So we all get to eat shit? Is that the point of the quote?

    I don’t understand how that is meant to be supportive of trickle-down economics.

      “horse and sparrow” discourse was intended to be a criticism of supply side economics, not supportive of it.

      I don’t think the original quote is what they use. I just found the relatively more glorified version commonly used:

      give the tax cuts to the top brackets, the wealthiest individuals and largest enterprises, and let the good effects ‘trickle down’ through the economy to reach everyone else.

      apparently also called “supply-side doctrine.”
