So you really think corporations will take the windfall from the tax decrease and shower it on their employees?

Why should they? No one other than shareholders should make that decision.

Sure, new office decor, meetings at exclusive resorts, and huge bonuses all around for management.

They're employees, too, right?

They will for the most part invest it back into their companies.

The companies will grow and hire more people.

If they compete, then they will pay higher wages.

If they “shower” in on their investors what happens? The vast majority of share holders in the US are INSTITUTIONAL investors. For example, Coca-Cola is 66.59% owned by institutional investors like Vanguard.

Translate that to mean 401K stock plans. Mom and Pop / grandma and grandpa. More money will either flow into their accounts via dividends or their account holdings will increase via increase in stock value.

I think you made a mistake and made a right turn when you meant to turn left...extreme left.

DU is the other way down the I-Road.

No, but possibly business growth and success will tighten up the employment markets and put pressure on for increasing wages.

I do not think corporate executives are going to be thinking about rewarding the employees, many of whom have had their incomes flat-lined for the past 10 years.

No, they will expand operations, hire more people which will affect the number of available candidates in general, resulting in hire wages due to supply/demand - along with them gaining experience and being able to command a higher wage as they progress.

Otherwise, why not keep increasing the corp tax rate? take more and more and more, I’m sure that’ll have no impact on the ability to expand and hire right? The policies of the left just encourage EVERYONE to have nothing and put the money in the power of politicians to “do good”. What could go wrong? /s

If they think they can make money from it, they will invest monies both in product and in employees.

If it’s not profitable enough to be worth the risk and hassle, they won’t.
