    Right, it’s not like there’s a limit on how much the top cup can hold. That’s why it overflows, because it has been filled to its limit.

    Edit for clarity: I am pointing out there is no limit to wealth. And my stance is that there should be.

  2. So when governments talk about growth, this is really what they mean. It’s not like I am benefiting from all the growth!

    Well, this graph is not fair. You didn’t capture the part where the billionaires piss all over the place.

    That’s the trickle down.

  4. Make the top cup the size of a swimming pool and the bottom ones teaspoons and you’ll get closer

    The right says we should cut taxes for the “job creators” but they can’t explain how a PERSONAL income tax break for billionaires will create jobs other than a couple new maid positions

  6. There is an error in the diagram, the top glass should have a straw sticking out of it to show the siphoning of money to support PACs and bribes.

  7. Forgot the pump from the bottom glasses to put back into the wine bottle labeled “tariffs and subsequent tariff refund”

  8. There’s actually a siphon tube that runs from the top glass to a glass in the Cayman Islands. No spillage.

    Also, there is a straw, and a reaaalllyy fat old dude wearing a top hat, who is so inebriated that he is inches away from drunk-rolling through the whole thing.

  10. Spillage from that cup at the top is quite by accident and will soon be rectified with the ample use of AI & Automation.

  11. Can we get a graphic of how it should fill from the bottom up? Maybe without using a metaphor of a latrine being filled with shit from above?

    Lest we forget the wine glasses that are saying “They already have a lot of wine, so they won’t need to receive any more” as a way to justify allowing the influence of the biggest wine glass over determining “how big wine glasses can be”.
