[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I promised to come back and report how the tax bill affected my taxes. I own a small business which has provided us enough income to place us into the top 10%. In December I was told on my final estimate I didn't have to send in the full 4th quarterly payment but about 1/2 of it. For the first time in years I pushed to get my taxes done early and found out I saved over 10k. So what did I do with that? Hired another part time employee who is over 65 and needed to add some income. I also need to provide furnishings and office equipment for them. I am investing the rest in growing the business and if that proves successful the accountant tells me my 2019 taxes will be back to what I paid in 2017 yet will also provide me more income. I believe that most small businesses in America will do the same.[/quote]
You would be wrong.  Most small businesses will pocket the money.

Businesses for Responsible Tax Reform conducted a poll of small-business owners, heavily weighted to Republicans and red states. The poll found thin support for the new tax law. Most believe the tax cut is heavily tilted toward large corporations over small business. The fact that the tax cuts for corporations are permanent and the tax breaks for S corporations are temporary doesn’t encourage the sort of stability that small business needs.[b] Some 69 percent reported that they have no plans to hire new employees as a result of the Tax Act, and 59 percent said they have no plan to increase wages[/b].[/quote][/quote]
