So, it was just mere coincidence that the unemployment is the lowest its been in 50 years? Or is that result of cutting back billions in regulations?
Did you sell them your stock?
This is baloney. My son works for a bank. The tax cuts have had a tremendous effect on their bottom line and what they have been able to do to increase saving interest rates.
Complete and total b/s.
Another numbers don’t lie, liars use numbers article.
Yeah, nobody hired anybody. That’s why the unemployment is at an all time low & more people are entering the workforce.
Total, unadulterated crap. Fake news at it’s best.

A majority of business economists in a new survey said Hillary Clinton is the best choice to oversee the U.S. economy as president.
Her Republican rival, Donald Trump, didnt even come in second.

I work for a private company, and every single employee received $1,000 bonus directly attributable to the tax cut. This was in addition to our annual and quarterly bonus’.
With a membership of 3,000 and a Cast of Socialist Characters at the helm, this DC ‘Non-Profit’ is not going to put me into Panic Mode about our economy based on their ‘findings.’ More Trump-Bashing inside The Beltway, IMHO. ;)

The people who tell you the tax cuts aren’t related to the awesome business investment and job numbers are the same people who “connect the dots” between global warming and blizzards. :)
Well, if Rooters says it, it has to be true.
Also, the statement minuscule amount of the tax windfall went to workers implies that it should have. Really? Why? Historically, labor's share of GDP has remained remarkably stable for the past 80 years, over many major tax cuts, so why should it change now? Measured differently, lower unemployment means a lot of that extra income ended up in the hands of more workers, which means somebody is hiring people which means aggregate payments to labor is rising. However, expecting the percentages to change is unlikely.
Hi.
“quarterly business conditions poll, “
A poll, but not a 10Q. And by now a 10k.
Rock and roll.

Thanks for the truthful reporting Reuters I know you wouldn’t lie about this.
Yes, which is why jobs are now falling out of trees. This isn't even plausible enough to call fake news. D'oh!
Not surprised. CEO’s and senior corporate types have long ago ceased to believe in capitalism.
In other news unemployment is at an all time low, stagnant wages have started climbing measurably and once shuttered factories and foundries are being put back to work.
During the 2000 presidential campaign the media, obviously on orders from their Democrat masters, accused W Bush of “talking the economy down” just to get elected. Now the media are talking the economy down to hurt Trump.
See tagline...
The positive benefit to small and medium-sized businesses was immense. But I think to a lot of FReepers, the only thing that matters is that the tax cut didn’t induce any Fortune 500 companies to hire more 53-year-old COBOL programmers. :)
