Scaly: not sure why someone who is shaped like a trash can is upset about waste management workers getting a bonus but we know you hate people who work for a living hence your rants attempting to brag about being on the lowest rung of nobility

Duff: sorry i couldnt find an accompanying link from your go-to thinkprogress but it seems ‘drumpfets’ arent the only one interested in this tremendous economy here (note this is pre-tax plan)

again, it must be nice to be in either of your privileged shoes where an extra $2000 is pennies. your dismissing attitude towards those middle and working class people who are getting this makes leaves little room for wonder why the electorate told privileged lefties like you to piss off :rofl:

can you tell the difference between bonuses and salaries? you've got companies handing out pennies while laying off people by the thousands
but there's still something in each of these stories for your people to celebrate so i've gone ahead and bolded them for you so you can share it with your brietbart brethren

Walmart has announced that it will lay off thousands of workers across the country as it closes dozens of Sam's Club locations.

The announcement comes on the same day the retail giant announced it was raising its starting minimum wage for new employees to $11 an hour.

..

The company told Business Insider that 63 Sam's Club stores will close. Some locations reportedly stopped business suddenly on Thursday without giving advance warning to employees.

Along with the higher minimum wage, Walmart announced earlier Thursday that it would expand parental leave and give some employees one-time bonuses of up to $1,000 following the passage of the GOP tax overhaul.

What would you advise doing if places are under performing, keep them open and staffed?

Please advise.

i'm not talking about what's good for business, i'm talking about how the vast majority of people celebrating these bread crumbs are going to be worse off in the coming decades (hell most of them are worse off right now) and i don't see how avoiding the uncomfortable reality around these tax cuts is going to help

I'm not concerned about anyone's personal feelings here, I am concerned about the US and IF it has a future.

Granted Trump shouldn't have said "shithole countries". But that doesn't change the fact, that if the US keeps taking in, all other countries...refuse, then sooner or later we will BE a shithole country.



The message on the Statue of Liberty, was put there at a time when we seriously NEEDED anyone and everyone that would come to the US. That is no longer the case.
We simply must go forward with a merit based system, or we WILL destroy this country.

We no longer NEED unskilled labor, we have plenty of that right here already.
What we DO need is people that are skilled and want to come to the US to be an American.
We don't NEED people who want to come to the US and attempt to change the US culture, to one more suitable to them.
We already have our own culture, we don't NEED another countries culture.

If all these diversity people get their way, it will tear this country apart, it will destroy this country. I'm glad I'm old.

The 1800's are long gone folks. What worked then, won't work any more.

The poem that you’re referring to was added later. It’s not actually part of the original Statue of Liberty. -Stephen Miller.

Obviously doesn't count since it was added later. :p



The statue of liberty also mentions people “yearning to be free”...

...not the Democrat scumstains of the world begging for free shit
