[healthmyths]

By now everyone has heard about AT&T providing $1,000 per each of 200,000 employees and investing $1B in new capital, or Wells Fargo and Fifth Third banks raising pay to $15.00 due to the tax bill but oh my the worst thing that can happen is for these EVIL corporations to yuk..yuk... "buy back their stock"! How evil.

Or is it? Will that hurt 401k investors especially?

If they don't buyback they have to pay dividends...

And then we have the other side... If corporations don't have to pay as much in Federal taxes they have to pay dividends... which again are taxable revenue to the government.

Why do they have to pay their excess profits back in dividends ?

To discourage this workaround, the IRS assesses the accumulated earnings tax on C-corporations at a rate of 20% (15% for tax years before 2013) of retained earnings deemed to exceed the corporation's ordinary and reasonable business needs.Nov 27, 2016

I am also an investor in AT&T which has a dividend payout over 5%. Also those dividends are taxed only around 5% so if I have $100,000 of dividend income coming in, I only pay $5,000 on that income. ROTFLMAO, that not too many people know about this type of income, but continue to rely on socialist security and pensions, which both are taxed at 25% to 35%, depending on the amount you receive...

The stock prices are exploding.

To be honest, as great as Trump is, it may be time to start shorting soon. This growth can't last forever. If all goes well the democrat in charge after Trump will inherit the next big recession.

Susan Rice released a statement that when the economy does well because of this tax cut, it’s immorral because somehow it hurts other nations.

She basically concluded that the USA should make itself unsuccessful so we don’t make other nations jealous.

Can you imagine that we have leaders who think it’s BAD when the US does well?


Fuck you, Susan Rice, you You tube video caused Benghazi lying bitch.

Opinion | Susan Rice: When America No Longer Is a Global Force for Good

President Trump’s National Security Strategy marks a dramatic departure from the plans of his Republican and Democratic predecessors, painting a dark, almost dystopian portrait of an “extraordinarily dangerous” world characterized by hostile states and lurking threats. There is scant mention of America’s unrivaled political, military, technological and economic strength, or the opportunities to expand prosperity, freedom and security through principled leadership — the foundation of American foreign policy since World War II.
