    And most of those who voted for Trump still believe in “the trickledown effect.” Talked to several Trumpees at work, they felt the economy was doing poorly and one or two thought the country needed people like Trump and Musk to take charge.

    That graph makes it look like the problem is professors, oil workers, dentists, etc. People who might just barely have the resources to get a permit variance on their house aren’t the issue.

    Guillotines are SO slow, inefficient and archaic, totally unsuited for these modern times.

    No, in 2024 we have WOOD CHIPPERS, readily available at your local home and garden stores. Look for the fall sales!

    Richy-rich assholes get fed in head-first. RWNJ politicians get fed in feet-first.

    I can’t wait to see him given the first test ride, and with the bonus that he won’t need it for the ride back.

    I’ll post it again, ‘Billionaires should not exist’ Bernie Sanders was CORRECT!
    There is a classic comic illustrating the true trickle down theory in action (not a pretty sight, but all to accurate:
    A billionaire is urinating, it is spilling onto the floor, leaking down into the floor below, dripping from the ceiling and trickling down on the worker.

    cross-commented on infinite thread:
    Dear PZ, I know you have a lot of plates spinning on the end of sticks, but most other decent sites we visit have dropped their ‘xhitter’ links/icons. PLEASE, do the same and abandon that toxin.
    thanks

    Nice graphic but some of the French data is extrapolated from a single data point. Can you really trust the ‘data’?
