What the hell does "trickle-down government" mean?

[StoopTroup]

Romney pulled that zinger out last night and it's something I've never heard. It's obviously a counter to the Democratic criticism of Republican trickle down, supply side economics philosophy. But what does it mean? Does it further Romney's argument that 47% of Americans are "takers" who count on entitlements to "trickle down" from government above? Veterans counting on their medical benefits and pensions are beneficiaries of trickle down government? Students counting on their student loans are parasitic takers who rely on trickle down government? Seniors expecting their SS checks are leeches who can only survive on the trickling down syrup from big government above?

It was a playful jab...Obama talks about trickle down economics not working...Rom's take was trickle down government doesn't work...

Obama got his *** kicked...get over it...

So it was a zinger?

Also....I didn't write that. I was surfing some Democratic Responses and ran into this website. So don't go jumping to conclusions that I'm in need of getting over anything....

You have done everything possible to shed a good light on Obama's performance and discredit Rom's...this is just another weak attempt on your part....

Say it...Obama got his *** kicked...come on...you can do it!

But if you must have some sort of deluded sick twisted idea of two men exchanging bodily fluids....I've leave you to your little chair where you can continue too make up Porn Ideas for future moments where you invite men to your shack, get drunk and have sleep overs.

I think he meant trickle-up poverty. It's a good plan.

Damn. that got you really mad Phil. It was just a joke. BTW....the election comes after the debates. Once ole Mitt is in office and the Obamas head back Home to Illinois...I'll play your little game. I just don't think suddenly turning into a Moderate a month before the election is going to be enough for Romney to land his *** in the Oval Office.

Who? Who's plan? I swear....it's hard to tell who is who as one of them flip flopped back into a Moderate last night.

Rather a flip flipping moderate than a jive talking socialist.

The term is rather simple to understand, but if you need your hand held to understand then so be it. It means to empower the economy by way of increased government spending. Case in point. $90 billion spent on the Green Energy to create jobs in that particular sector. Labor Department reports that there have been 9,200 jobs created due to that spending. This equates to close to $10 million spent per job created.
