Maybe my proposal is a hybrid, but to just label it as you have is a mistake and a way for you to handwave it away.
I am proposing government mandated re-directing corporate profits to .... employees.

That is trickle down economics.
I do think if your going to take this path heavy regulation is the way to go. But it doesn't change the fact that trickle down economics has failed as an economic theory.
