Under Trump, CEO pay soars while employee wages decrease—and tax cuts could make gap even bigger

It’s amazing to me GOP voters are still fooled by the scam that is “trickle down”.

You think the tax cut caused employee wages to fall?

Can you explain your "logic"?

The point is that the tax cuts are useless.

Tax cuts and lower unemoyment vs. what we had under Obama. If it is any constellation to you, Obama had a higher rate of food stamps when compared to Trump. Further, Obama said the jobs would not come back and yet you people want to give him credit.

Can you please hold him accountable and stop with entitling him accomplishments he had nothing to do with?

Wages have declined, and we're setting up for another great depression.

Proof the looney liberal left are against profits.

Profits=BAD

The last time I checked, an unprofitable company doesn't hire, doesn't invest, doesn't give raises......

Apparently profitable ones don't either so why bother giving them tax cuts?

Under Trump, CEO pay soars while employee wages decrease—and tax cuts could make gap even bigger

It’s amazing to me GOP voters are still fooled by the scam that is “trickle down”.

Compensation for America’s top executives grew 17 percent in 2017 as real wages for workers declined, according to a study released Thursday.

Despite President Donald Trump’s repeated promises to raise the salaries of average Americans, chief executives earned 312 times more than the average employee during his first year in office, according to a new analysis by the Economic Policy Institute (EPI).

The average CEO of the largest 350 companies in the U.S. received $18.9 million in compensation last year, up from $16 million in 2016. The main difference in pay came from stock awards and cashed-in stock options, not salary growth, the analysis found.

Idjit!
These AWFUL increases in CEO compensation occurred in 2017, before the tax cuts were enacted.
And if you knew how to read, you'd see it wasn't increased salary from the companies.

Were you always a moron, or did it take years of practice?

Possibly tax cuts contribute to wage decline, but its likely mostly due to the recent increase of inflation, which gets worse when trade war kicks in.

The CBPP link shows how inequality now is at the same levels prior to the great depression. However, a more ominous sign is inverted yield curve.

If only the link gave any proof that they do...…

The CBPP link shows how inequality now is at the same levels prior to the great depression.

So what? That's not proof that inequality caused the Great Depression or that it will cause a new Great Depression.

However, a more ominous sign is inverted yield curve.

Inverted yield curves don't cause Great Depressions. Our curve is not inverted.

As far as the graph, why would our lowest skilled workers have kept up with our national productivity?

They aren't very productive.

Or with average workers?

They're below average, that's why they make the minimum wage.

Yes Obama made that gap even bigger, but you far left drones were silent then.

And how many of these people are far left or even left leaning?

I don't believe greed picks a side, they both don't care about the working class.

The working-class are greedy too ... they just suck at it.

Without question, they may not sure I at it as bad as you think though. They are without the chances that the uber wealthy have at it!

US Government Entitlement Spending History with Charts - a www.usgovernmentspending.com briefing

17% of the GDP goes to entitlement spending.

The historical average of Federal Revenue is roughly 18%...Currently at about 17%. Entitlements eat ALL REVENUES.........which is considered Mandatory spending...........The rest is debt..........

Now add in the yearly charge of interest on the debt.
Government - Interest Expense on the Debt Outstanding
458 Billion last year.....
455 Billion already this year.....

The Math doesn't lie..........we are on a path to disaster.

/——/ What do tax cuts have to do with salaries? It’s about what you take home.
