More corporate reactions to tax cut:
Fifth Third Bancorp will pay more than 13,500 employees a bonus and
raise the minimum wage of its workforce to $15 an hour after the passage
of the Republican tax plan that will cut the bank's corporate tax rate.
Fifth Third is yet another company to announce a bonus for employees
because of the tax plan. AT&T said earlier Wednesday that it would pay
more than 200,000 U.S. employees $1,000 each and increase its capital
spending budget by $1 billion.
Wells Fargo, meanwhile, also said it would be boosting its minimum wage
for employees to $15 an hour, which was prompted by the tax plan. The
San Francisco-based bank also said it would target $400 million in
donations to community and nonprofit organizations next year.
As much as Harry wants to bitch about it Trump is punching out a lot
of his campaign promises. It is understandable because they were
things he did not want, although I bet he takes the extra money from
the tax cut instead of contributing it back to the government.
I wonder if he is disappointed that ISIS is on its ass and that the
economy is doing well?
Heh.Â* You and I have similar sleep habits based on the times of our posts.
Yeah, like him or not, Trump is doing what he said he would do.Â* If the
daily left wing blasts and left wing media weren't complaining so much
his favorable rating would likely be a lot higher.Â* I suppose that's
what the "resist" movement is all about.Â* Ignore the facts and just resist.
Trump is doing a remarkable job of ****ing over the country.
Yeah I am sure all of those people getting a trickle down raise and an
extra few thousand back on their taxes feel the same.
