I’ve decided that from now on I am referring to it as tinkle-down economics — because that more accurately reflects what is coming down on the rest of us!

A few years ago, my granddaughter who was 8 asked me what trickle down economics was. My explanation; Let’s say you are very thirsty. There is a large hose with water but the rich people are first in line and they get almost all the water if they miss a few drops you might be able to get a little of that water. But what do you think would happen? I’d still be thirsty but now I’d be thirsty and mad she said. Maybe this explanation would work with older folks. Explain it to them like they are second graders.
