Republican Style Welfare

Biggest lie of my lifetime: trickle down economics work. That's not money or pure water trickling down the collective necks of the middle class and the working stiffs.

Huffington Post presents another exhibit of the rich getting  richer thanks to the Republicans running the American government. See How A Trump Tax Break For The Poor Led To A $30 Million Gold Stash In A Queens Warehouse.

The program entails very few requirements to prove that new projects will benefit existing communities. As a result, opportunity zones have fueled the construction of luxury housing, self-storage units and even a superyacht marina, and helped the Trump tax breaks earn their reputation as a bonanza for the ultrarich.

But even in that light, experts told HuffPost the US Gold Opportunity Fund is one of the boldest applications of the program they have ever encountered.

Keep voting Republican. The rich need their welfare checks.
