Democrat state lawmakers in California say they want some businesses to give half their tax-cut savings from congressional Republicans’ tax reform package to the state.

Notable that almost all these companies are announcing one time bonuses,
which is like giving a tip, rather than *raises*,
which entail a long term commitment to higher pay.

BodA CEO assured us in a conference call that although they are raising wages for some workers, the bulk of the tax savings was going to go to dividends and buybacks.
This is the thing about the bill. Proportionality. It's good that some folks are getting raises and bonuses. Let's see how much it moves the needle and how workers fare vs investors in the long term.

Interesting read
In the ramblings about the tax bill in just the past 24 hours reports of 5500 layoffs at Kimberly-Clark (makers of all things, tissue paper) and the lost 23,000 jobs due to the senseless tariffs imposed on the solar industry.
Let's do the math. K-C layoffs.
Let's assume the average salary of those laid off, $40K per x 5500
equals ????
Solar jobs lost
We have to assume a high tech industry would average more in salary (before tax bill) but for conversation sake we will keep that $40 per number
times, 23,000
equals ???
I dont think they can take all of this prosperity granted them through this tax bill
Whatever rrr , the greeters at WalMart got a tip.
But, Trump promised sturg and the rest of the TikiBoi's a windfall.
Tell me again which of Trumps promises he kept --- off hand, something about Mexico ...
$24M fraud settlement etc etc etc
But like the battered woman his sycophants are, "he means it this time "

TRUE: Charles and Elizabeth Koch contributed nearly $500,000 to Paul Ryan’s
fundraising committee after successfully passing the GOP tax plan in the
United States House of Representatives.
As @JesseCharlesLee said,
"Koch Brothers used their tax cut to invest in their workers."

Its almost as if they want to support candidates that support their policies? Should we list every donation that is made after successful legislation?
