Do that through taxation. I thought trickle down economics had been broadly repudiated.

Probably because rich people do not spend enough of their money, not because they spend too much of it.
Seriously, reading comments like those you replied to hurts my head.

In fact all that's been happening is trickle up, since the wealthiest keep siphoning more and more money, such that we essentially have no middle class left.

I like how we use the word class and then deny having a class/caste system.
