Sorry, Mickey, trickle down economics was debunked under Ray-gun, George W. and the worst offender recently being the mess Gov. Brownback has made of Kansas using trickle down tax breaks. Contrast with neighboring Minnesota which raised corporate taxes and now has the 5th fastest growing state economy.

Trickle down hasn't worked for 40 years and this time is no different.
If your argument could limit itself to corporations benefitting from these tax cuts you would have some evidence on your side.

History shows no corporate pass-thru of these tax cuts to the public unless they own shares--certainly not in the form of lower prices.

I agree with your forecast..the devil is always in the details but certainly private enterprise creates more jobs than the government ...lowering taxes gives the businesses more money to hire and in this case gives the middle class more money to spend...a great combination..time will tell..
