It's not called Trickle Up Reaganomics for nothing. You have to stimulate the company Car driving Fat Cat, to produce more, not reward him for doing the same thing as last year. That being said, it's getting tougher to sell more in a saturated market with declining financial recourses. I think the stock market will eventually prove to be unsustainable once they've tapped the cheapest labor rate and there is no one left to buy the products made with even the cheapest labor. Henry Ford knew this and paid more than any other; the reason people stood in line to work for him, ..or so the story goes.
