See Progress: Heather Boushey: 'Middle Out Economics 101'

Source:Center For American Progress I believe at the 2012 Democratic National Convention.

"CAP's Senior Economist Heather Boushey, explains how middle out economics helps bolster the United States economy." 


If you watched and listened to this video, you'll hear or see nothing that has to do with raising taxes across the board, or even just on the wealthy. Or arguing for a bigger, stronger, national government. Or less individual choice and more government control of the marketplace. Or paying people not to even bother working. Or some national basic income, so no one has to work for a living. 

What I just laid out and what you didn't see or hear in this video, is not what President Barack Obama and the Center For American Progress is proposing. But instead an alternative to both supply side economics, that's just about lowering taxes and regulations on the wealthy. As well as an alternative to social democracy, which is what American leftists are proposing in America, that we simply change our form of government and become a social democratic state.
