AT&T Will Pay Employees a Special $1000 Extra Bonus for Christmas in Observance of the Tax Cut Passing
Plus: Video of Trump's Remarks at Official Announcement Event
They'll also boost capital spending (investment in long-term infrastructure and assets) by one billion.
NEW -- AT&T announces it will "pay a special $1,000 bonus to more than 200,000 AT&T U.S. employees" because of the tax reform passage and will also increase US capital spending by $1 billion

.@SenSchumer: "Over the last ten years, AT&T has paid an average tax rate of 8% a year; they have 80,000 fewer employees today than they had then. Tax breaks don't lead to job creation. They lead to big CEO salaries and money for the very, very wealthy." pic.twitter.com/2uct3u0mY6

I am actually dreading taxes next spring, and all because of President Trump. Cash based accounting (S-Corp so on my personal return) and in 2017 I managed to collect somewhat north of $50,000 from long overdue accounts, almost all because of the improving economy. I'll be doing my fair share of cussing come April, but won't really mean it.

My guess is the two main parts that stuck in their craws is
#1 with a bullet -- The repeal of the 404Care mandate. This spikes the last of TFG's legacy, as signups will now plummet and the death spiral of that POS law will happen faster.
#2 is ANWR. The watermelon* vote is a big key to the Dems' electoral successes.

He has the power to direct them to take action, and he should use it. I
get that he likes to delegate power and doesn't like to step on his
subordinates, but still: executive power. Use it.
Occam's Razor. When all other explanations fail, go with the simplest and most straightforward one.
He isn't ordering them to do it because he doesn't want to and he doesn't want to because it would hurt the real investigation.

I have to disagree with you on this one. I think Trump was the driving maniacal force behind this whole thing. Sure, congressmen like Ryan have been tinkering around on this stuff for a while. But it never got anywhere. I know, I know. Obama. Still. I absolutely believe that if it had not been for Trump and his scalp-weasel whip, this stuff would still be in mothballs and dreamland.
It takes Leadership. Trump is a leader and expects results. No more of this hanging around business , we tried, we tried.
Nope. He kicked them in the pants and said I want this on my desk by Christmas. Get a move on.

Income under $40,000 is not taxed at the federal level. Overall, those who make between $40,000 and $50,000 would pay $11.9 billion in 2019 under the current tax scheme. Under the new tax bill, they will pay $6.7 billion less a tax cut of 56.3 percent. Those who make between $50,000 and $75,000 currently would pay $90.3 million, but they will pay $23 billion less, a 25.5 percent cut.

Now he's just going through the motions, blathering on about whatever, knowing that the truth-value of whatever statements he's uttering is irrelevant because he's only getting paid to sit there and be a whipping boy.
And his team has lost and lost hard over the past year.

Well, I did my part. For my TR6, I made a new distributor, using the base of the old Lucas one (to retain the tach drive), the body of a Prestolite distributor for a 6-cylinder Studebaker, and the magnetic pickup and reluctor out of a Mopar Prestolite, driving a remotely-mounted GM HEI module. And it all works.

A buncha bogus polls. Know how I can tell they are bogus? Well aside from "they're polls," the infamously false and unreliable Monmouth pollsters are on th elow end of this estimated advantage.
Its hilarious, its like people sitting around telling each other what they want to hear, in defiance of what they know to be true.
If the Democrats thought this was true, they'd be celebrating and smug, not running around screaming.

I honestly think our side is whistling past the graveyard looking at those numbers and just bringing up the Trump example to dismiss all polling. People here were seeing Roy Moore losing in polls and confidently predicting 10-15 point wins for Moore regardless.
We saw this sort of thing favoring Republicans in 2010 and 2014 and it ended up being blowouts.
I think polls are just one point of data, but if that's what its looking like October of next year, its a bad omen.
Getting this tax cut through will at least show we can govern and deliver on some promises. Hopefully a few extra dollar in people's paychecks will help as well.

This is likely bad polling. But it's also irrelevant as 2018 is not some big national race. Like Hillary, the Ds can pile up votes in Deep Blue places to no effect.
House seats are very local and it's likely that there won't be a big swing. Current developments may favor the Rs by November. The Rs have a structural advantage in the Senate races and should pick up at least 4 seats, and even more

I have to disagree with you on this one. I think Trump was the driving maniacal force behind this whole thing. Sure, congressmen like Ryan have been tinkering around on this stuff for a while. But it never got anywhere. I know, I know. Obama. Still. I absolutely believe that if it had not been for Trump and his scalp-weasel whip, this stuff would still be in mothballs and dreamland.
It takes Leadership. Trump is a leader and expects results. No more of this hanging around business , we tried, we tried.
Nope. He kicked them in the pants and said I want this on my desk by Christmas. Get a move on.
Posted by: grammie winger - O Come Let Us Adore Him at December 20, 2017 05:14 PM (lwiT4)
If Trump was NOT the driving force behind this... then why did it take YEARS of the Repubs owning both Houses of Congress, for anything to be done?
They could have had this on Trump's desk the first day he was sworn into office...
They did not.

The most the president can do is cheerlead and try to lean on people as head of the party, but he can't really get congress to do anything they don't already want to do. The only input a president ultimately has on legislation is signing it or not. You gotta give congress the credit on this, its their branch.
They'd have probably done it (or tried it) earlier, but there's been so much childish, pointless squabbling trying to block the president or seem to be opposed to him that almost nothing has gotten done this year.

New wire harness, new lamp sockets, new switches, new alternator, new starter. I would think a proven, standardized way to de-Lucas-ize Brit cars would be a steady seller, for a while. My method works, for me. But it might be off-putting for the car's next owner.

I've been baking cookies since the cookbook arrived. You call them 'Hermit' cookies on page 61. So does my Betty Crocker cookbook.
I call them survivor cookies. They need cream cheese frosting, or need to be dipped in melted chocolate.
I can (and do) live on these cookies as they have all the basic food groups: fat, sugar, wheat flour.

I don't know, my TR6 is pretty much not a TR6 at this point. Just about everything has been modified from the brakes to the suspension to the wheels and tires to the engine to the exhaust. About the only thing that hasn't been changed, save for the body, is the electrical system.
I asked my mechanic about it and he said he had never really found a kit that did it all. He changed some of the stuff but the rest he just left alone and I've really never had an issue with it save for a couple simple wire breaks.
Honestly, there is no justification for the things I've done to it other than I like it and it will take a unique person to buy it when I decide to move on some day but for now it is the perfect little summer time car for where I live.

I thought they were fro the olive family too but...
Capparis spinosa, the caper bush, also called Flinders rose, is a perennial plant that bears rounded, fleshy leaves and large white to pinkish-white flowers. The plant is best known for the edible flower buds (capers), often used as a seasoning, and the fruit (caper berries), both of which are usually consumed pickled.

If I were king for a day, income taxes would be 15% for everyone, no deductions, no nothin'. And it would be paid the Monday before Election Day. (Oh, sure, you COULD make arrangements with your employer to save the money you would owe in tax through an allotment or something along those lines for your convenience, but you STILL have to send that money to DC via personal check to the Treasury and an IRS of maybe 100 people.)
The tax drops to 10% once the debt is paid off.
