Trump claims he has ignited job creation.

Job creation in his first year was the LOWEST since 2010.

It was stronger each year 2011-2016.

You continue to embarrass yourself

Working people are getting peanuts or a TAX HIKE compared to the rich --

and we have the added benefit of knowing we'll pay for the rich's tax cuts

with cuts to our health care.

tax cuts will go to people who earn more than $200,000 a year in taxable income,

If it wasn't this it would just be income redistribution. You should just admit that's what you want.

A mechanism that would, yes.

If you are crediting a tax bill for economic growth that happened before the bill passed ... congratulations.

Income redistribution is a Marxist ideology or at the least the result of Marxist policies. It is smack in the face of freedom which is what America stands for.

Ah, "freedom" !

It's always shocking to me that people get surprised when the highest tax payers see the biggest benefit from a tax cut.

It's called math

[57Brave]

Who's surprised.
You shock easily

The goal is income redistribution. Plain and simple. Rob from the ones with money and give to the poor.

I bet fed ex workers are so mad that tax reform put more money in business owners pockets

[sturg33]

The company announced that two-thirds of $200 million in increased compensation will go to hourly employees, while the remainder will be put toward performance-based incentive plans for salaried employees.

FedEx also said $1.5 billion will be put toward the company's pension plan and another $1.5 billion would go toward expanding the company's hub in Indianapolis.

If you want more equal distribution of tax cut beneficiaries, then the bottom 70% of the country will need to start paying their fair share in taxes

But i assume you don't want that, so you'll have to live with the math of today

This is only 2 months after the plan was put into the law. Can only imagine where we will be a year from now. This has gone even better than my most optimistic projections.

Now we just have to work on that trade deficit. Companies need to act in good faith. We will start to build more in the US and hopefully countries will purchase our manufactured goods

The Kochs are spending $400 million this year to buy themselves another election

The media needs to focus on the bonuses the radical robber barons are giving their workforce -- the Republican Party

The Koch Brothers stand to make $12-140 Billion a yer from the latest tax give away / payback.
That was Billions with a B.

Another way of looking at these reparations is it is money used to reimburse campaign contributions to the Paul Ryans and Justin Amash's of the world
Or to simply finance future campaign contributions.

I don't have the list handy for Koch owned business'
Wondering how their bonus structure is effected ?

I know G-P is one gut can't remember the others
