One of the hardest qualifications to fill is to find the right worker willing to work for what the company wants to pay. So long as the workers overseas are a lot cheaper then that isn't going to change.
Malcolm is turning over in his grave.
By the time you finish with the cuts and the loophole endings, this bill isn’t a giant tax cut.
The secret as always, is to adjust to take advantage of what is given and ameliorate what is taken. Been doing that for almost 40 years, it works fine.
What a globalist ass
I need low skilled employees at my company. The job is literally counting, folding and packing t-shirts.
It pays minimum wage to start with raises available by learning and expanding your usefulness to the company. We will train, if you are willing.
It is a job best filled by students. The hours are very flexible. No weekends or holidays.
We can’t find a soul. Not even a nibble. Those expressing any interest want to start at $10 an hour.
Very discouraging.
From the article:
“The House and Senate are considering tax legislation that will add $1.5 trillion to annual deficits over the next 10 years, according to their own numbers.”
So, giving people their own hard earned money back will only cost 150 billion per year.
Obama added 1.1 Trillion to 1.4 Trillion in deficit annually and it came with meager and stagnant GDP Growth.
The economy will take off after 8-10 years of horrible GDP growth. Trump is hitting 3% GDP growth on merely rolling back Regulations and Consumer and Business Sentiment.
Just wait to these tax cuts hit !!
Why of course not! Hey why don’t we go full keysian and RAISE corporate taxes to tax our way to a strong economy? Hey it worked so well in the 30s right? Suck a lemon jerk
Kill the bill ping.
We are told that because it's true you dimwit.
If this is the crap Forbes puts out it’s no wonder I no longer read their crap. Thanks for reminding me.
Note that the subject of spending cuts never once makes its way into this “analysis”.
Forbes is being dishonest by half.
“Most” other countries have a VAT - more or less true
BUT
VAT is normally collected and used by local and state governments, not the feds! For example, there is a uniform VAT throughout Germany (19% for most items). This is collected by the local government and spent by them.
what the hell has happened to FORBES
What a dumb thing to say ... if a business has more capital at its disposal and decides to expand ... new workers WILL appear ... and its not magic ...
... nor will it improve the skills of those already here.
Has this guy ever owned a business? ... A business that trains the right employees to do their job better ... or trains them to do a higher value job ... and you improve the skills of those already there ...
The increase in capital due to the reduction in corporate tax rates will directly affect what this knucklehead says it wont.
I would insult the author and point out that he is stupid but, that would be redundant, as you already know....
The corporate tax should be ZERO.
You can make a good argument that corporations do not pay tax. What the government imposes as a tax, a corporation must add to the price of the goods or services they sell. It is therefore the consumer who pays the tax on the corporation. If that consumer is the government itself, the tax only adds to the deficit dollar for dollar.
they’ll still send jobs to other countrie, they won’t hire American Americans, and they’ll laugh all the way to the bank with their bonuses..
