Does anything ever trickle up?

Snarky: Our manager told me I should understand goals trickle down. Like taxes...and urine.

Trickle-down economics aren't really funny except as a scat joke. Trickle-down marketing is even less funny, unless you're rich, or you can appreciate that perhaps, just perhaps, your iPad is cheaper because a lot of well-off people bought them first. Although that doesn't really work given the fairly static price point of an iPad. It likely cost you just as much as it cost your CEO, unless you calculate it based on percentage of income. Did you know children's names are trickle down as well? You can read about it at Freakonomics.
