So why now, this late in the game?
For eight years, Obama kept promising "bottom-up growth," while telling the country that tax cuts and deregulation would only benefit the rich. But his policies — Dodd-Frank, ObamaCare, higher taxes, a regulatory tsunami — produced economic stagnation. As it always does, that stagnation hurt the working class most.
Trump went in the opposite direction. His pro-growth tax cuts, deregulatory campaign and pro-energy policies fueled huge increases in economic optimism and turbocharged the economy. And now we're seeing real job growth and strong wage gains for the first time in more than a decade.
You tell us which approach is proving more worker friendly.
