It's amazing how these companies can pay so much in bonuses, commit to investing a lot more into the US and, I'll wager, are still making out bigly from the corporate tax cut.

 

it's their money and they can do what they want, a ton has been "cookie jarred" over the last 100 years of capitalism....

The last 100 years haven't been decreasingly capitalistic, while these recent tax reforms are a step towards being more capitalistic than where we were before them.

 

Under capitalism, skilled labor is a finite resource which employers must compete for.  Employers realize that financial incentives are excellent for this competition, and with more resources available, they are now able to better invest in their work forces.

Yup, and when the President is more pro-business than a prior admin it gives people incentive to risk their holdings on larger gains.

 

There is also more than a profit margin sometimes in the calculations for why people keep a business going.

Obozo and his braindead sheep followers are taking credit for Trump's economy.

 

Has anyone ever seen and ex-President try to make himself relevant like this incompetent fool?

 

Obama is smart enough to understand his entire term was inconsequential.

 

Other than ‘cash for clunkers’ of course.
