It did trickle under Reagan but it appears that it is not trickling under Bush. This is because there is no spending on business upgrades with all the money corporations have on hand. It is more likely that they will spend in other countries and will leave this country holding the bag. BTW 1.1 percent growth on a yearly basis in the fourth quarter. That looks like the trickle machine is just not allowing that trickle to happen. How many more years of Bush can we take before the middle class is toast in the good ole USA? The housing bubble may burst. When home builders put a sale on and take one hundred thousand dollars off the price, the guy who bought at regular price is already upside down!

If we could bring Republicans and Democrats together to get something done, we wouldn't have Medicare and Social Security systems gradually going broke.
