Libertarians don’t, and it’s one of the few things Neoliberals are actually right about.
“A rising tide lifts all boats” refers to the fact that giving money to the people on the bottom of the financial pyramid who needs it the most will benefit everybody. Unlike just shoveling it at the already rich, which is what capitalism is designed for.
Infuriatingly, almost none of the Dem leadership actually follow through on this mantra with actual policy, beholden to the rich capitalists as they are.

The problem is that more and more people can’t afford a boat anymore.
And even if they could, Neoliberals and fascists have given the rich all of the places where they can use or even place a boat.
Neo liberals believe in trickle down economics though.
Yeah, that’s why I pointed out that they SAY “a rising tide” but very rarely actually act on it when it comes to legislation.
“Centrist” (read: right wing to far right by the standards of democracies in general) politicians are nothing if not hypocrites and lying demagogues 🤷
