This. I have heard similar stories from people working within the administration and in Republican-held Congressional offices. |
But Trump and his cronies do. Most of the big corporations will increase their stock value with the tax cuts. If Trump really cared about the working man and a living wage, he wouldn't put forward a man who has admitted to loving cheap foreign labor as Labor Sec. He would also be demanding to increase the minimum wage. You really are a sucker. |
And why don't they pay federal income tax? |
DP.. because their wages are too low, because Rs are against a living wage, because Rs like cheap labor (ie, farmers and construction business owners who vote overwhelmingly Rs). http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/01/05/trumps-deportation-vow-spurs-california-farmers-into-action.html http://www.foxnews.com/us/2012/05/17/labor-shortage-for-washington-state-farmers-highlights-immigration-issues.html https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-06-20/-i-need-more-mexicans-a-kansas-farmer-s-message-to-trump |
...and they also should know to put their a good deal of their savings in the stock market. |
Thread ending comment:
If you still support this monstrosity of a presidency you are psychologically unbalanced and an idiot. |
Sorry. |
Yes, we all are. --America |
All the more reason to hold some overseas stocks as part of a balanced portfolio! |
What if you want change? Voting for establishment candidates, they Republicans or Democrats aren't going to get you there. |
DP... I tend to agree with you, but change for the worse is not better than what we had before, as we are seeing. We want change for the good, not for the worse. As a former R, I couldn't vote for Trump because I could tell he was a horrible person, and vastly unqualified to lead a country. If by his own admission he claims he doesn't have to read a book because he's got common sense doesn't make you wary of him, then either you agree with him (which makes you equally ignorant and arrogant) or you are an idiot (I don't mean "you" as in PP, but you in the general sense). Unfortunately, a politician will almost never make it to the top unless he bows to some of the establishment because that's where the politician will get the money for the campaign. Trump didn't even want to use his own money. He lent his money to the campaign, which had to be paid back to him. The only way to avoid this is by not allowing private donations to campaigns, and certainly not big corporate money. Unfortunately, the conservative SCOTUS struck down the campaign finance laws that the Dems tried to push forward which would've curtailed big money donors. There should be one public pot for financing campaigns, taken out of federal money. Unfortunately, I don't see *anything* changing without campaign finance reform. I don't think Trump is any better than the establishment. At least the establishment doesn't pi$$ off our allies and play nuclear war chicken with NK. |
Actually, no. Keep what you have in the market but prices are high right now - not the time to buy. And if trump is impeached, the market is going to crash. President Obama got all of our investments back up and strong. Trump is riding the wave, at best. This corporate tax cut has happens so many times before in history and never worked. |
With a 30% approval rating - the lowest in the history of our country - for a President who lost the popular vote by 3 million votes? You are not speaking for America, PP, and you know it. |
I cannot imagine that Henry Holt publisher legal group did not vet every word in this book and listened to the tapes. Now, it is possible some people lied to Wolff, but he still had tapes with them talking about t-rump. |
Precisely. I'm embarrassed for the liberals who are salivating over what amounts to no more than gossip. The author himself says it's for the reader to decide what's true. So essentially, he's written a novel. |
