The ultimate analogy of trickle down economics is Thorin Oakenshield promising that with the support of Lake Town, once he reclaims his gold horde, the wealth will flow down from Lonely Mountain and bless the people. But when he finally reclaims his gold, his mind becomes so warped by his precious treasure that he refuses to share it with anyone. Despite the fact that the support of the people was what allowed him to gain the gold.
Right on! 2 years late. I have read lotr every fall since I was 12. It always amazes me that politically it is spot on as well as endlessly entertaining. You have some great insight there!
@@karenjanusch7978 J. R. R. Tolkien lived during and wrote about a time when fighting and surviving against Nazi tyranny was one of the scariest times in history. The Nazgul were an allegory for that unexpected knock at the door.
Trickle down is basically just the rich saying we should be happy with the crumbs they leave us after helping themselves to the pie.
Exactly, if you make me richer, you life might get better
But beware of the guy who wants half a crumb.
It was "invented" in 1932, the year Regan graduated and 30 years before he switched to the Republican party.
David Turner Excellent analogy.
@James Elliott really? So they're are millions of people working factory type jobs; difficult, grueling jobs 40+ hours a week and barely making enough to feed a average family; are they not earning it? Maybe they're not working hard enough?
Thank you Lewis a rich guy saying how they don't need the help thank you
many were saying so... just see their hands...when the question was asked
Frederick Lawton Lewis Black for president 2020
Lisa, I doubt Lewis could handle all the bullshit required to enter politics...jmo :)
stormwatcher59, still an improvement over Trump. Then again, that's a pretty low bar to meet. I could do a better job and I'm a drunk with a bunch of skeletons in my closet and a brain I did a lot of damage to in my teens and twenties. If Trump runs against a squeak toy in 2020, I'm voting squeak toy.
Oh, I'm with you...we have a lot in common!! :) LMAO
But Lewis has heart and he is too honest for politics...
The first time Reaganomics hit, Mom had to go find a job just because ends were no longer being met by Dad's job. So what now? We gotta send the kids to the Coal Mines to make the rent payment? Forget the Mortgage. You ain't never getting a house now. We have never recovered from Reaganomics the FIRST fucking time in '81.
And that is because we allowed the criminals, by which I refer to EVERY elected Republican, to continue breathing. Reagan declared WAR on working Americans, and we have yet to begin to fight back. As long as we allow the bullies to control our lives, we LOSE. And they will NEVER decide that 99% of EVERYTHING is enough. It's not. That one percent that has to feed the rest of humanity is far more than they deserve. They are not rich, they are not powerful, they do not improve MY bottom line. I do not need them, but i DO need what little they own. (Well, technically I don't NEED it, but God tells me I deserve it.)
And we let them live. Our bad...
David Kempton, Even killing all these elite parasites wouldn't be enough justice for the DECADES of suffering they have brought upon HUNDREDS of MILLIONS of people.

The concept of giving to the rich to help the poor is preposterous.
Christian Somers any American can make 6 figures in their lifetime if they just do things right. Even half that feels like alot of money. No one is really poor. Everyone is greedy. Give the poor money and they'll still be complaining.
Pocahontas
Holy hell you are a MORON.
Americans who believe in "Trickle Down", are like turkeys who think Thanks Giving is a celebration of turkey values.
3 times is a charm for the DIMS ??
The initial 85 PLUS companies is now up to 240 companies who have Volunteered to give their employees a bonus and raise because of the TAX cut ?
Apple is going to repatriate 20 billion and establish 20,000 jobs as result
The money comes from the money that the Company would have paid in taxes ?
A person making $30,000 /year can expect $1000 /$2000 in bonus , a raise to $35,000 ,and
a tax reduction of $1000 ?
Thats an increase of $7000/ $8000 ? Nancy call this CRUMBS (nancy is rich ) ?? I’am gonna up grade my boat ??
None of the Dims in the Congress voted for this but they expect to take back Congress in 2018 ??
What is Nancy smoking ??

“Tastes like it had a muscular problem” had me busting out!
I believe in trickling down. Pee on the republicunts. Its yellow.
"There are two ideas of government. There are those who believe that, if you will only legislate to make the well-to-do prosperous, their prosperity will leak through on those below. The DEMOCRATIC idea, however, has been that if you legislate to make the masses prosperous, their prosperity will find its way up through every class which rests upon them."
- William Jennings Bryan's 'Cross of Gold' speech before the Democratic National Convention, July 9, 1896
quiet ignorant sheeple
The Demicrats attempts at making the poor prosperous has had wonderful success !
Oh.... Wait
misterjag thank you for this!
He looks like a cross between Bernie Sanders and Al Franken
😂😂
That's possibly the best, most accurate explanation of "trickle down" theory I've ever heard.
He forgot to mention that after the rich guy pisses what's left of his 20 beers in his pants and down his leg into a cup there's a poor schmuck expected to come running up asking to pay most of his savings for a chance to slake his thirst on what's in that cup.
I know he was presuming that, but it's important in comedy to spell out all the steps for many in the audience.
Trickle down doesn't work, it just buys the rich an extra Porsche.
More like a backup plane as a parachute.
fiereke agreed, what do we change it with
Thats literally their point! If they buy a porsche that employs peasants to build the porsche and market it and maintain and service it thus trickling down onto the rest of us peasants
Yeah, but those Porsche peasants are German ... let's at least trickle down to the Ford and Chevy peasants first.
Leaves country for holiday...he is trickling down on someone. just not here

Trickle down economics. Before that it was known as voodoo economics. Before that it was known as "SCREWIN THE OAKIES!" - Lewis Black
Lewis Black's laugh is a ray of light in these increasingly dark times.
This was in the early 1970s. I just graduated from a small Christian college in Southern Cal. At a party outside of the campus, the Dean visited to congratulate and mingle. Not a big deal since at a small institute we all knew the faculty and administrators. A female student (very sweet and attractive) came to our little group of graduates a bit shocked and dismayed that when the Dean came up to her for what she thought would be a hug and congratulations, he instead held her tight and proceeded to "French kiss" her. She pulled away and went to the other side of the room to distance herself from him. We calmed her down saying that the Dean was probably drunk. Forget about it we said. She was 22 or so and he was in his 50s. I'm sorry we didn't tell her to report his sorry ass. Christian college, indeed.
I hate when people sadly get away with this type of shit (or even worse...)
I wish I have done more but we (I) were at the time pretty lame and cowed to speak out against unwanted sexual abuse and exploitation of women. My girlfriend/later spouse who was a Betty Friedan, Gloria Steinman, Germaine Greer, Ms. Magazine, Anais Nin, Erica Jong' Helen Reddy ("I am woman, hear me loud blah, blah, blah, etc) , "burn your bra" militant feminism, "women's lib" movement who the one suggested we just accept that behavior as that of an asshole drunk. Well, this lovely lady (to whom I am no longer married to)sensitized me to those problems and issues. I welcome the current backlash and dialogue.
almost sounds like you're still annoyed or something at your feminist ex but what about you? Even hard-core, dedicated feminists back then learned which battles to fight and might be worth it and which ones might not...It's not easy to step up to that plate when you're first...it's very easy to find fault though, esp. if you, yourself weren't ready to put your own skin on the firing line. Your old girlfriend/spouse may have some regrets now too but at least she learned and cared. Action requires strength...we all have different degrees of that and being part of a crowd is much less hard than standing alone. Wonder if you would have supported her had she spoken up even if you didn't dare to?
I'm sorry that you get that impression from my post here and/or the one above. It might be a bit of projection on your part. We were very transparent with each other; hers with her feminist views and ideas, mine with my steadfast support. Also, I tried to be supportive of the feminist movement and the need for women's' rights (which 50 years later are still a work in progress!) by my own words and actions, i.e, not be "a male chauvanist pig". I believe I've stayed true to those ideals.
"-When a man in his 50´s got a sixpack, you know something´s wrong!"
XD spot on!
So Steven is the man who makes Black laugh... good to know.
We know the tax bill favors the rich, but not all of it is readable.the side notes look like so much scribbling.The bill should be trashed just on the grounds that congress has no Idea what it actually is passing.
"Congress has no Idea what it actually is passing." Um, that's pretty common. Politicians often ask their donors how they should vote on something without bothering to read it or have their staff read it. It's a huge reason money-in-politics is a corrupting force.
And the ACA? Should they have scrapped that for the same reason? At least be consistent.
Follow the money. Political donors liked the ACA. They can make money off it. More people getting care, more people buying their medical gear and medicine. The ACA is a federal version of Romney Care and when it was originally installed, it was a horrible screw-everyone thing that frightened most people into buying their own care. Over the years, its kinks were getting worked out. Republicans yell about scrapping it to get uninformed people to vote Republican because it was a Democratic baby. Obama was able to pass it because it was the best of what Republicans would agree to, Romney Care. Undoing the ACA is a distraction from bigger issues, almost hostage taking, so nobody talks about money in politics.
Portugal welcomes you with open arms and attentive ears!
Republicans, please find the nearest rich person you don't know, or your boss, and give them all of your money, then see how long it takes for it not only to go back to you, but with interest. Reply the amount of time in scientific notation please.
Honest and reasonable supposition, Me likee!
All the corporate people are Democrats
Herry Lukas, So the republicans, using what you said, are wanting to give money to the democrats so that they get money but oppose the democrats? Kinda contradictory by saying that, its the "business man" in the white house at the moment, and he is no democrat. XD
All the corporate people are democrats? Please stop
Are most republicans familiar with scientific notation?
Great analogy for trickle down.
Lewis Black giggle- best day in the world!
That was a perfect "trickle down" economics analogy!
badvagirl interesting
~ Lewis Black and Stephen Colbert together, fantastic!! Cheers, DAVEDJ ~
That trickle down analogy is hilarious!
The stove EXPLODED!
Exactly. This is how black people felt after the civil rights movement. We are gonna talk this out. 5 decades laters... Same $@#$ different day.
Wooh we broke the glass ceiling. Men hand you a broom and dustpan and say it's coming out of your pay knocking you back down the pay scale. Sounds about right?
Portugal is an excellent choice. Been there several times. It’s wonderful.
As a rich guy I only need a certain amount of jeans or pillows. I only eat and drink what most normal people do. Maybe I'll take the extra money so I can put solid gold taps on my Jacuzzi.
Mark Self I'll just throw all the extra money into the jacuzzi, I like the feel of money on my skin.
Most rich people invest their money. Which helps businesses grow and innovate. But yeah no one needs all that money but what do you do? Take it for no reason? People are rich cuz other people gave them money. Steve Jobs was rich cuz people bought his crap. People buy iPhones and cars then complain that the ceos has too much money.
The problem with ever more money being poured into the pockets of the 1% is that yes, some will be spent, some will be invested to help businesses grow and innovate. But how much? As more and more money flows to the top, there is less actual opportunity to invest in and more goes to speculation, which in turn produces a bubble economy which then pops.
Compare $1 million going into a the bank account of a billionaire to $1 million going to food stamps. The billionaire may simply have the money sitting in a bank account or his hedge fun manager may use it to buy bitcoin, or it could be invested in the next Apple or Google - who knows? On the other hand, the $1 million in food stamps will all be spent on groceries. Each purchase will support a local business, create local jobs, and stimulate the economy.
It's not that rich people do not use their money to do anything positive, they may or may not. One thing is for sure, with income and wealth equality the way they are in the USA, we need more money going into people in the middle class and the poor, not the rich. 90% of Americans agree, when shown the wealth distribution of Sweden, that it is superior to America's. Most people do not understand how ludicrously unbalanced it actually is.
We had to give away 1.2 trillion so that 100 million of it " trickles down" to employees of certain companies and that some folks will get $1100.00 of tax relief for a year or two? We could have given everyone in the country $4500.00 a head instead. Simple arithmetic.
To make up for the huge revenue losses/budget gaps that this "reform" will create, the GOP will steal yet more of our SS and Medicare INSURANCE PREMIUM payments. However, as those funds have been almost completely redistributed to the .01% by conservative cut-purses over the last 37 years, they will need to borrow even more heavily from the corrupt coven of creeps who will already be drowning in the money thrown at them by their Republican and corporate Dem puppets. .
The uber-wealthy won't/don't create jobs with their fortunes. Why would they take on any risk as they are guaranteed perpetual returns in the form of the interest that WE PAY them on the debt? They just need to tell their political toady's to keep the scam functioning.( Shit, even when they do more with their purloined treasure than simply collecting interest, they still run no risk, because we get the honor of bailing them out.)
This is loan-sharking 101. The principal amounts that constitute our debt, by design, will never be paid off. The interest will forever flow to our owners, eventually yielding them an ROI that will be a grotesque multiple of the original amount "loaned".
The ever increasing deficit will eventually be used by some Paul Ryan clones to justify gutting SS and Medicare(The conservative wet dream.), even though their EMBEZZLING OF OUR PREMIUM PAYMENTS and the redistribution of those funds to their donors is/will be the cause of the insolvency of those programs.
Welfare for the wealthy and austerity for everyone else.
The factory worker at one point asked his CEO "But how does trickle down economics work?"
The owner grabbed laid his arm over his shoulders and said "Let me explain by analogy. I see that your car is parked over there. I also see that it has seen its better days." This was true, the car was very old and worn down.
"Contrast that with my car, which is parked over there." he said while pointing. "As you can see it is a much more luxurious and exclusive car."
"What trickle down economics is that if you work very, very hard and with a great discipline, then one beautiful day, I can afford an even better car."
They say all analogies are suspect, but you stretch that to a ridiculous degree.
Step 1 bend over!😲
Makes sense that Trump would be in favour of "Trickle Down".

*shouts unintelligible remark and plays three notes on a piano
Does the phrase: "Taxation without Representation" ring a bell with anyone? That's what we have now in the "good ol' USA"
We have representation. The bad part is they're representing corporations and not the people.
The GOP has abandoned representation of all. It is 'what we can get away with' representing the few.
I do not NOT want to pay for the poor / LAZY /malingerers ??
I like Lewis Black whenever he shows up on anything.
I've never seen Lewis laugh that hard 😂
Seriously, it says something about Colbert if he can make Lewis Black giggle! That was just surreal. Good, but surreal.
Perhaps he's trying to cover up a bit of guilt ;P
When Lewis Black says he doesn't need tax breaks, it shows his great character. He is a genuinely good man and a terrific comedian!
How about a trickle up effect. here's how it works, give the lower class and middle class tax cuts and then that gives them more money to spend and thereby the corporations sell more products and can then afford to, and need to, hire more people.
Jamie Rueffer that does make sense. However I'm in my mid 20 and have never made enough to pay taxes. If you're married with kids and make 50k you won't pay crap. The government would have to give more tax credits not tax cuts for me to trickle it up. Which I don't like but I'm not gonna refuse it.
Exactly

"Don't forget to click subscribe. It's almost as satisfying as" quitting the video before the end of the sentence. xoxo

Man's got integrity. Love this guy!
It's called trickle-down for a reason. The people in the lower classes only ever see a trickle. So it does work as the name suggests, but it does not help the economy. What it does is dig a deeper and deeper pool at the top, only accessible to the people already at the top, allowing only a small amount to trickle over the edges to the hungry working classes down below. And the lower you are the less you see.
That is by far the best analogy of Trickle Down Economics I've ever heard
You had me at "no assholes anywhere" love that lewis!
I love skip ad... And not having a six pack didn't stop Harvey Weinstein... it is all about ego and power
The band played "Back in Black" 😂 love it
Mr. Black leaves this country and enjoys visiting countries where he does not understand the language. Trump stays in this country in spite of the fact he doesn't understand the language.
Oy gevalt!

Please remove the repeated extra ending asking for subscriptions. It doesn't work and it annoys fans who watch a lot of your videos.
Awesome show. Keep it up.
Why don't you simply move onto your next video right before the 'annoying' extra ending? Do you have access to their metrics dashboard to see how often people click on that subscription link? Marketing decisions aren't made based on individual opinions but statistics. Also, all TH-camrs ask for subscriptions ... nothing new here.
They wouldn't ask if it didn't work. Though it would be nice if TH-cam offered the channel the option to not show it if the viewer is already subscribed.
I just subscribed.
Please god yes. It's only been like 2 days and I'm already so sick of that thing. It's bad enough on channels like cracked, and at least they've got a variety of begging end-cards. You watch one day of shows and you gotta hear that same clip like 8 times. It's worse than the Doublemint Gum ad in the 90s!!
Shadow Heart You shut your mouth.
Ya feed the rich and the shit trickles down to the poor.
Golden shower economics.
YES! Back in the 70's when I was protesting war, civil rights, women's rights...you all were there, too!
What the phlock happened? Where'd you all go? Did you ALL sell-out????????
I don't even recognize my generation anymore. The baby boomers are nostalgic for a childhood fantasy from some Little House in the Prairie book, and Gen Y 40 year olds talk like my racist sexist great-grandparents who were born in the 1800's. Who the hell are these people? When I was 16, I was working on a McGovern campaign. Now, people of my generation act as if the 1960's never happened. Ah well. I never recognized the mom in the Kool-Aid commercials, either. My mom never wore a dress and pearls with her hair flipped up, offering the neighborhood brats Kool-Aid and cookies. Good Lord.

Great to hear someone make Mr. Black laugh
Trickle-Down = A Golden Shower From The Golden Tower!
He says basically, "Drink a 6 pack of beer, pee yourself, and see how long it takes to fill the cup you put next to your feet."
He is 53? I would have guessed mid-forties. The self-deprecating joke was about his appearance, but I think he looks good.
What's a sexual allegation? Someone accusing you of something in a very erotic fashion?
Trickle Down totally works, EVERYONE gets humiliated.
Got to love that hearty cackle of an amused LB.
How about using bubble up economy instead of trickle down.
Tax the wealthy, use the tax money to subsidize local factories, support new startups, fund various projects, provide welfare support. All these things would inject money into lower levels of economy, raising people's purchasing power and thus, making them consumers. More consumers = more stuff for rich people to sell their products to.
Simply giving out free money to people would have better effect to economy than giving it to rich people.
Poor / mid class people will spend the money on buying stuff...which creates jobs to those who produce the stuff
Lewis Black is my hero
In economics there is no GRAVITY!
If there is trickle down, there is trickle up!
That rendition of "Back in Black" was pretty amusing.
Lewis would make a great president
ziljin why? Cuz he's cool and seems to care about you by what you saw on a 6 minute clip where he knew he was being watched?

"When am man in his fifties has a six pack, there's something wrong."
Thanks, I will use that.
Even if it all trickles down, it's still pee. The cup will over flow with pee.
Man, Stephen's the best! "You know when a man in his 50's has a six-pack there is something wrong." Listen up, y'all.
The ending was much better when it played a tune and just showed a static picture. A little like Seth Meyers video's. Who dictates that all the late night shows have to have a stupid ending...they're all on different stations. And we think the corporations are not going to fuck with our internet access once net neutrality is overturned on December 14th. Right!
Since TH-cam has monetized ALL its vids, subscriptions probably have a double meaning in the boardroom as well. Remember, they do NOT care about ANYTHING but money. Ever.
Mr. Black, Mr. Colbert, as far as I'm concerned, you're always welcome in Canada.
Asking Lewis anything sets him up for a joke lol.
He's such a great guy. Very funny and lovable. He's next.
I really don't understand why people are arguing about whether or not "trickle-down" economics works or not. It is ridiculous to argue over this issue. It objectively works brilliantly in terms of being great at doing what it is designed to do. It also objectively hurts anyone who isn't rich, damages the economy overall where it is implemented, & will raise the deficit & debt by a absolutely ridiculous amount when the fantastical delusions they use to "score" the impacts from the "growth" thus growing the deficit & debt by more than they already believe it will be. But, hey look that is going to be doing the same because when the deficit & debt come back around & a Democrat is in office they will find it extremely helpful as a way to try & stop anything the Democrat wants to d o & sets up perfectly their talking points about needing to privatize or cut Social Security and/or Medicare because "we just can't afford it."
So again, "trickle-down" economics works great doing what it is meant to do. It will give rich people & big businesses all sorts of great things, it will hurt everyone else. Any nonsense someone tries to say about it ultimately in some fashion coming around to benefit any sort of semi-normal person they are either just stupid/ignorant/etc... or they are just lying.
You see a man in his 50s with a six pack, you know something is ganna go fucking wrong. 😂😂😂
I really love how they inverted Back in Black. Jean Baptiste and his whole group are just great.

That is the best analogy of trickle down taxation I've ever heard!11
Trickle Down assumes the guy on top won't simply buy a bigger cup.
