Employees who vote with the ‘rats should be required to identify a trustee or legal guardian to handle their money and ensure it is spent responsibly.

Excellent resource, thank you! I made a PDF of it and sent it out to a bunch on my email list.

I really liked the official statements of the companies clearly spelling out that TAX REFORM was how and why they were doing various pay/investment actions.

My take home amount is up about 5.5% on what was supposed to be a 2% cost of living adjustment. Haven’t seen the pay statement yet, but I am assuming the rest is lower tax withholding.

Mr sneakers and everybody else in his company - including part timers - got a $1500 bonus. Of course, by the time the federal govt took taxes, it came to less than $1000. Oh, don’t get me wrong; I’m not complaining. Heck, it was still a wonderful surprise and greatly appreciated!

Thank you president Trump!
