Soooooooo the tax bill that not a single Democrat voted for, that we were told repeatedly would cause financial Armageddon, sure looks like its paying off.
Apple Corp decided to repatriate 250 billion dollars they have been holding overseas due to the 35% tax on bringing it back here. This will result in EVERY SINGLE APPLE EMPLOYEE getting a $2500.00 bonus, a new call center here in America that will employ 20,000 people, and best of all- 38 BILLION in tax revenue that we would never have seen without it. BOOM!! ------------------------- The REAL truth is....both of the forum idiots are OWNED. -BOTH of them have no clue who their owner is. -They are both card carrying narcissists. ^These are PROVED facts. |

Florida Power & Light won't be passing on Hurricane Irma repair costs to ratepayers after all.
Instead, the utility is applying the tax savings its getting from new federal tax reform to the costs of recovering from Hurricane Irma. FPL says its actions will save each of its 4.9 million customers an average of about $250, money which would have gone to the $1.3 billion needed to restore the utilities infrastructure back to normal following last September's Hurricane Irma. ------------------------- The REAL truth is....both of the forum idiots are OWNED. -BOTH of them have no clue who their owner is. -They are both card carrying narcissists. ^These are PROVED facts. |

Apple spent $2.5 million in lobbying and saved $40 billion in taxes.
Now, that's ROI. |

Does FP&L get any money other than from ratepayers? ------------------------- "I remember South Africa in the late 70's, sleeping on the beach at J-bay, smoking ganja with the blacks.

Actually I don't know, but for sake of arguement I'll agree that FP&L will pay less taxes under the new tax bill. Now, can you answer the question? Does FP&L get money from other than ratepayers? ------------------------- "I remember South Africa in the late 70's, sleeping on the beach at J-bay, smoking ganja with the blacks.

The tax cut is too much. It can't survive. Reagan cut less and ended up raising taxes more that any other president. They should have started at a 5% cut then gone from there.

Hillary will win. Trump is a business man. What does he know bout politics? The stock market will crash. Our economy will collapse.

God forbid we look at history.
No safeguards. No safety net. No nothing. For our sake, I hope I'm wrong. And you people are dumb-asses, Trump stood a great chance. ------------------------- I was right. |

This is comical and sad. A dollar fifty??? How far out of touch from reality are these guys?
House Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R-Wis.) touted the new GOP tax reform law and outlined his party's agenda ahead of the new year. (Reuters) Never mind all the Democrats who call the GOP's tax bill a deficit-busting giveaway to the rich; House Speaker Paul D. Ryan has been enthusiastically promoting it as a middle-class tax windfall. He's been coaching other Republican lawmakers to sell the $1.5 trillion tax cut to voters, and telling people on Twitter to check their paychecks for wage hikes. The bill - which was deeply unpopular when it passed along party lines in December - is now breaking even in a new opinion poll. So Saturday morning, by way of good news, Ryan's Twitter account shared a story about a secretary taking home a cool $6 a month in tax savings. Here is the passage in the Associated Press: Julia Ketchum, a secretary at a public high school in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, said she was pleasantly surprised her pay went up $1.50 a week. She didn't think her pay would go up at all, let alone this soon. That adds up to $78 a year, which she said will more than cover her Costco membership for the year. The tweet was deleted within hours, probably guaranteeing it will never be forgotten, and leaving people baffled as to why Ryan ever thought it would make a good advertisement for the tax plan's supposed middle-class benefit. It's true that the bill is stingy to people at the bottom of the pay scale. In fact, the average tax break for someone making $25,400 a year or less happens to be $60 - the exact price of a Gold Star Costco membership. And it's true that the bill showers money on those in the top income brackets. But between these extremes, millions of workers should see substantial cuts, ranging into the hundreds and thousands of dollars. For example, the very same AP story Ryan quoted from also cited a care worker in Florida who got an extra $200 in his last paycheck, and a couple in Texas who will save enough to cover the costs of a new baby. Why the House Speaker decided to highlight Julia Ketchum of Lancaster, Pa., and her $1.50 a week savings, the world may never know.... https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2018/02/03/paul-ryan-celebrated-the-tax-cut-with-a-tweet-about-a-secretary-saving-1-50-a-week/?utm_term=.55d4e3bd076b |
