    Yes. I get it. Higher than it's been in 6 years. Fascinating.
    Not so factinating if your annual pay rise was less than the inflation rate ... then you actually are losing on purchasing power
    even more so if you also are victim to the rising premiums in healthcare that Trump caused with his war on Obamacare

      My pay is going up, but I don't get wages. I get a portion of the revenue that I create. This is going to trickle to wage workers. That's how the economy works.

        This tax bill puts the "trick" in trickle.

      Inflation has completely and entirely wiped out the measly little tax cuts. Kidiot can't explain his way out of a paperbag.
      For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)

        Big whoopie doo... your pay went up a $1.50 a week. Big ****ing deal.

        Gas prices have shot up and so have prices of basic products like food. There is no trickle down anything. That garbage argument has been a failure since the Reagan years. There never is a trickle down.

        Worker wages have been stagnant under Trump and have even started to drop.

        Trickle piss down diarrhea.

          How about them tax cuts... most Americans aren't seeing it.

          Republicans don't even use the tax cuts in their campaign because the last guy who did was Rick Saccone. And he lost in a red district running on that garbage.

            CNN reported that "Trump will blame the California wildfires on everything but climate change." Police have made an arrest. ... It's not Climate Change.

                    When companies make more money they pay more for everything. That includes labor. Do you know the first thing about economics, or are you completely ignorant on the subject? If so it's not too late to keep your trap shut

                      Absolutely wrong. They used the tax bill as a way to outsource. You just shot yourself in the foot. There is no trickle down and companies also hoarde the wealth.

                        Kidinomics, coming to a university near you.
                        It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

                          I earned a degree in Economics at the University of Georgia, Terry School of Business (class of '91, baby!) I also do economic analysis in my spare time, like when I correlated growth in National Net Worth with post-war Presidential administrations. Number 7 on the list is shocking!

                          You? What are your claims to expertise?

                              I just know the basic principles of economics and don't **** it up for the whole world to see and then claim to be an expert.
