Margaret Atwood
“The trickle-down theory of economics has it that it's good for rich people to get even richer because some of their wealth will trickle own, through their no doubt lavish spending, upon those who stand below them on the economic ladder.

Margaret Atwood, Payback: Debt and the Shadow Side of Wealth

If it is face to face, there must be two looking.”
Margaret Atwood, Alias Grace
