RUSH: John in Enfield, Connecticut, you\u2019re next, sir, as we go back to the phones. Hello.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hi. <\/p>\n

RUSH: Hi.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hi.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Hi.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Rush, don\u2019t let them steal the term trickle-down economics. I\u2019ll give you the bottom line. They\u2019re using the term trickle-down economics to explain Obama\u2019s answer to Joe the Plumber. At first, I was shocked; and then I laughed, and then I say, ‘Ohhhh, this low level of ignorance! You can\u2019t argue with that,\u2019 and then I said, ‘You know something? Maybe they can pull it off,\u2019 you know? I said, ‘You are the only person can stop it.\u2019 If you have time, I can give you the story.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, you know, what Obama is really talking about is trickle-up poverty. <\/p>\n

CALLER: (laughs)<\/p>\n

RUSH: The best way to describe the Barack Obama financial plan is trickle-up poverty. Everybody who\u2019s poor is going to stay that way; people who are in the middle class are going to get poorer and on up the ladder. It\u2019s trickle-up poverty via Obama\u2019s tax increases. That\u2019s the way to counter this. Look, the Democrats have been trying to revise history on trickle-down economics but they admit that it works every time the government comes up with a stimulus plan. Every time Nancy Pelosi or somebody or Obama or anybody on the left says, ‘We need more consuming going on out there and people need more consuming power,\u2019 meaning they need more money, more disposable income. It\u2019s just the Democrats want to be thought of as the source of that disposable income. They don\u2019t want that disposable income to come from tax cuts and people keeping more of what they earn. They want that disposable income to come in the form of a bribe, a check from the government; and there are enough people, sadly, who will buy into this as good economics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
