Nowhere in my comment did I make any suggestions for economic planning. My point is to say that these measures serve certain segments of the economy better than others. John Edwards is on to something with his two Americas idea. I do believe the free market is the best approach, but even you must admit that $4 a gal gas hurts certain segments of society much harder than others.

And "trickle down" economics is a left-wing term that refers to supply side economics. Lower taxes, less regulations and more economic growth are better for all in a society. Economic planning doesn't work. Just look at Peru vs. Chile, or North Korea vs. South Korea. Freedom works. I think you are wrong.

Maybe I am wrong and its simply impossible for the economy to serve all all the economic strata.
