See, trickle down works after all.

All the way down you leg, into your socks and filling your mother's old army boots, right?

The bill has not yet been signed and already paradise is Just Around the Corner.

But wait... those promised bonuses are taxable income, pushing some recipients into higher brackets, so they'll end up paying MORE taxes... which will subsidize businesses moving production (and jobs) overseas to avoid US corporate taxes that they aren't already avoiding. Cute game, hey?

Hey I know

Lets CUT wages so they will be in a LOWER bracket and NOT pay tax at all!

A clever picture is not reality. You clearly have no understanding of how a business works.

I am a card-carrying capitalist -- my computer business consultancy paid our bills. Before that, I was a software engineer at a significant insurance firm. Do not lecture me about business, pilgrim. Don't tell your grandma how to suck eggs.

Just the start of companies handing out bonuses, raising wages & increasing spending

Expect a stampede of companies handing out bonuses, raising pay, spending on capital projects and giving to charities, with the windfall from the massive corporate tax cuts passed Wednesday.

"This is exciting stuff. This is good. This is not just a whole bunch of guys saying I can buy back a lot of stock here and jazz up my numbers through financial engineering. This is a bunch of business leaders saying we can use this tax benefit to grow our company, keep our loyal employees and assist the community," said Dick Bove, banking analyst at Vertical Group.

My post was an attack. Then I accused someone else of making an attack. How stupid is that?

Pretty fucking stupid.

If there is a "stampede" it could completely flip the conversation about Trump's competency.

Or, people will just compare trump and the megacorps to putin and the oligarchs, shell game, etc.

Probably both, given the way things are nowadays!

“Merry Christmas America,” pronounced the Vice President.

Chuck Schumer attacked AT&T hours before they announce bonuses, domestic investment

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) attacked AT&T just hours before the telecommunications giant announced that they will distribute bonuses to over 200,000 employees and billions of dollars of domestic capital investment after Republicans passed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

Schumer, at a press conference on Wednesday, argued that the Republican tax reform bill will only increase corporations’ profits while doing nothing to benefit the average American worker.

“I love the example of AT&T,” Schumer contended. “Over the last ten years, AT&T has paid an average tax rate of eight percent a year. They have 80,000 fewer employees today than they had then.”

The New York Democrat added, “Tax breaks don’t lead to job creation. They lead to big CEO salaries and money for the very, very wealthy.”

ATT has had its merger with Time Warner held up for a while now. A $200 million PR stunt to curry favor with the King is a good investment to grease the wheels.

Considering ATT is heavily subsidized, its hard to imagine their taxes will actually go down any further under the new Wealth Transfer Entitlement program.

I'm not complaining. My income comes from pass-through entities, so my rate was nearly cut in half

It just amuses me that Trump keeps fucking the people that voted for him. Who could have seen that coming?

It's good to have a gullible electorate.
