GOP Cure for Wealth Inequality - Trickle Down Economics/Conservative Policies On Steroids.

Let the campaign begin. The Cure for poverty and middle class decline is a super dose of conservative policies. Now what would that mean.

Eliminate minimum wage - more jobs because less employer cost.
Bigger tax cuts for the "job creators". More money to invest.
Cut Social Security & Medicare
Cut SSDI
Turn domestic spending to the churches to take care of the needy
End Obamacare and voucher everything and depend on free market
Cut all regulations on employers.
et al.

Super charge trickle down economics and everything will be peachy. The problem is that trickle down economics was not pursued aggressively enough.

... never mind the rhetoric. Look at what they do.

It's also trickle down, but with the capitalists being picked by the politicians rather than grabbing it themsleves.
