A new survey of adult citizens in 18 of the world's largest economies has revealed majority support for tax reforms and broader political and economic reform. (Not all questions were asked in China, as indicated when findings reference 17 G20 countries.)
Because "trickle down" economy was somehow thought to be legit.
Like, the rich get loads of money, so they do big things to make jobs.
Except they don't.
Rich people hoarde wealth, and pay people to ensure they don't have to pay taxes.
Rich companies increase profits, which is about the sole metric of a successful company (and when a metric becomes a target, it fails to be a metric). Then they try to keep increasing profits by cutting costs.
Oh, and wealth hoarders then bet on companies ability to constantly increase profits.
It would be interesting to see the percentage of wealthy people in these countries, compared to nonwealthy, and compare those percentage to these ones here.
