Essentially, steal from the poor, give to the rich. Enacted by a senile puppet in the 80's in the height of his delirium.
Tax Collector: That's ok, Mr. Trump, you can go, we'll just go shake down that hobo over there.
Trump: God, I LOVE Reaganomics!

Economic plan developed by President Ronald "Bonzo" Reagan in the 1980s based on some squiggles drawn on a napkin. Based on the entirely logical presumption that less money equals more money.
"Hey, Ron, let's lower taxes on the rich, cut funding for education/healthcare/anything important, then spend so much on useless crap like missiles that we end up in debt for the rest of our lives and those damn Boomers can't have their social security."
"Huh?"
"Good choice, Ron. We'll call it Reaganomics."
"Uh, OK."

A program of across the board tax cuts in order to produce growth in an economy. It worked very well in the 1980s. GNP and real incomes rose in the 1980s. It was theorized by economist, Arthur Laffer, that government revenue would grow if taxes were cut on the across the board including the wealthy. Revenue rose sharply in the 1980s. However, spending rose faster.
Often, misrepresented as stealing from the poor and giving the rich. If you cut taxes, it is only right to lower taxes on the wealthy who pay taxes.
President Reagan's economic policy.
