It is actually a good demonstration of #TrickleDown – if we remember that the popular concept is completely upside-down!
The #MoneyCycle is very similar to the #WaterCycle: Rain on the highlands feeds millions of tiny streams (low incomes) that *Trickle Down* & feed the crops, populations, towns & cities & the #economy generally, while excess water fills rivers & finally flows into the oceans (the 0.01%).
Rain on the oceans (Top-rate #TaxCuts, bailouts,+++) feeds none of the above.

#TrickleDown is actually perfectly correct but the trick is that it has been turned upside-down!!
The #MoneyCycle works like the #WaterCycle:
Evaporation = Tax
Condensation = National debt reduction
Rain = Govt expenditure (onto highlands & tiny streams, waters/funds 100% of the economy; onto the oceans funds nothing!)
Trickle-Down: from the millions of LOWEST income streams to the 0.01% oceans of wealth, fuelling the entire economy on the way!
