This is Ford stating all of this, not me. Ask them how.


In a sense, they are right in regards to taxes. Corporations have ways to defer taxes if they think at some point in the future they will face a lower tax rate. So what they do is wait for tax breaks to pay the gov't. In that case, it is a one time benefit, but paying 15% vs 35% from now on will be an ongoing benefit, not a one time only benefit, at least until legislators decide to raise taxes again.

I think a lot of companies globally are using the trade war as a scapegoat for not growing as much as investors want them to. I'm not saying the trade war isn't damaging to the bottom line, but what I think is happening is it's purposely being magnified as a concern because it serves as a scapegoat for why growth is slowing.

What happened to the tax cut Trump promised the middle class before the midterms?


Don't worry, if Republicans maintain control of everything they'll pass another fiscally irresponsible tax cut.

Anyone else get a text last night from "The First Lady" wanting people to pledge support for the president? Surely it was a phishing attempt, but still weird AF.

I also got one in October that started "This is Pres. Trump" and then advertised a rally.

Yeah, I received the one about the First Lady yesterday afternoon. Weird.

So what's going to be the Trump cult excuse if Democrats win the house? Where will the blame be placed?

Regardless of the winner each party is just praying on brainless shills to vote using angst and anger. I wonder if the majority of voters in each party actually think for themselves or take time to look into the parties proposed legislations.

Probably not. It's easier to just have a news outlet say the world is ending if a democrat leads or dumpf bad holocaust 2 is coming.

Is it a win either way for Americans right now? I don't think so. Even if your Rep wins they represent a garbage fire right now.

American politics is like starving people having a cock fight. No one stops to think everyone is better off if they just eat the chickens.
