source More good news! Hard working Americans are reaping the benefits of Trump's tax reform. Democrats will call it "crumbs", but do the math. 260,000 x $1000 = $260,000,000 invested in the US economy. How many other companies have done this, and how much is the total investment in the US economy through these bonuses? This is an unintended benefit to the US. Nobody predicted this, and it is big. Everyone remember who did this. It was not the Democrats. They would take money from you, not let you keep your money or pass legislation that encourages this kind of major investment in the hard working people of the US. Thank you President Trump and Congressional Republicans!
Crumbs! I mean, what’s a person going to do with $1,000?? Leave a tip at lunch? Nanny Pelosi wants to know.
It's a transparently political move on the part of Lowe's. They know that 1,000 dollars per employee is chump change compared to how much they'll save from encouraging the populace to support the party of "More money for us and also **** you" in hopes that some of those proceeds will go to the working class. This will happen once. The right wing will then use it to justify the millions of times when they make the idle ruling class richer at the expense of the poor, because maybe this time you'll get a slice of the pie too.
That's an interesting way to look at it. The total including all the companies must be getting way up there by now... I'll take a thousand dollar "crumb" any day of the week. With the tax cut I imagine people will be able to keep more of that bonus, too.
good for them, but misleading headline by fox news once again. $1k only for employees that have 20+ yrs, anything less is prorated.
Boom: 164 companies give bonuses, lower fees to millions, citing Trump tax cuts by Paul Bedard | Jan 14, 2018, 12:22 PM http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/b...illions-citing-trump-tax-cuts/article/2645900
BOOM! is right. It would take me half the afternoon to add up the billions of dollars in bonuses and investments we're looking at here. Thanks for posting this steveo - I'm definitely saving that. In fact, I might even send the link to Blinky Pelosi so she can gaze at all these "crumbs"...
i read it at cnbc. the bonuses based on length of service. https://www.cnbc.com/2018/01/31/low...nuses-expands-benefits-due-to-tax-reform.html
They're all the same to most alt-lefties probably anyhow, right? Big stores where blue collar deplorables buy crap for their DIY projects
politics aside, i am glad those people are getting extra money. my point was fox news had a misleading headline.
Lol! NINE YEARS service FULL TIME nets all of $300! NINE YEARS part time (the largest bunch of workers) nets $150!! In the meantime, .1% off the richest gets most Of the 2 TRILLION! Oh, yeah, regular Americans are going to be set for life, that is until Trump and the Republicans cut down their social security and Medicare that the Republicans claim we can't afford anymore! https://www.cnbc.com/2018/02/01/lowes-bonuses-heres-what-employees-will-receive.html
this metaphor is absurd and reflects poorly on you, in addition to that, it demonstrates zero awareness of what i was originally trying to say,
