> Does anyone still believe this 'trickle-down' hogwash?
Absolutely not. Corporation will choke employees and consumers alike if they are allowed to have their way. This quarter my company decided to cut the quarterly bonuses to zero because Y-oY growth targets were not met. Although profits were higher then last year. Now it looks ridiculous to me to expect an fixed pefcentshe growth forever and then punishment employees who didn't even knew that increasing Y-oY growth is part of their responsibility. If at all anybody should have been punished, it should have been the top management. But since they make the rules, there is no downside.
