She then pinpoints when the American Dream went wrong, dating our current downward spiral to the Reagan years in the mid-1980′s.
“It changed in the 1980′s when the Republicans came up with a different vision. They said, ‘Eh, that’s not how you build an economy. The way you build an economy is you let those at the very top, the richest and the most powerful, keep more of their money and more of their power, and somehow it’s going to trickle down for everybody else.’”
Alas, as we all know now, that tinkling trickling down never happened.
