No it is not supply side economics. If everyone equally got a 10% bump in wealth that would be a rising tide and would not be trickle down.

    That's not how it works in practice. In practice, crapitalists get tax breaks, everyone else gets less infrastructure, services, etc and pays more for the wealthy to enjoy a luxury liner while trying to run us over on whatever scraps we have.
