Massive combined inoculations to small children is the cause for big increase in autism…
man, rachel maddow really hammers the vocal fry.
The two clips together are not discussing the same thing. The question at the end asked about increasing capital investment, while the first part didn’t mention that at all (it talked about increasing wages and other things). Even if it did mention capital investment, not all companies are the same (some raise capital and some pay it out). “Why aren’t the other hands up?” Definitely someone anti Trump, fake news!
So were clear, the takeaway from the video is that regardless of the outcome of the tax cut, there is not significant interest in capital investment by the business communtiy. The point being that the tax cut wont likely have a positive effect on growth.
Get your facts straight cw/hpracing/turd. You’re fake news fake news.
I am interested to see what, if anything, is done on infrastructure. Hopefully not entirely pork…
Infrastructure spending, while badly needed, would merely preserve what weve already built. It wouldnt really spur a lot of further growth.
He said it would grow wages (which makes sense because companies would have more cash flow and bidding for labor would be more competitive, especially with how low unemployment is)
Do you know who the people in the audience are exactly? Are these fake news journalist? People who don’t want to participate? Sometimes I don’t raise my hand when a speaker asks because I don’t feel like it. It’s not a formal study, could be a bunch of paid anti Americans to sit there to make Trump look bad for all we know, like how crooked H’s camp paid people to be violent at Trump rallies. Again, fake news.
The idea that its going to casuse increased wages due to increased bidding is not a very strong argument given that companies are sitting on record levels of cash and high rates of people not participating in the work force, and a shift to lower paid jobs. Again, you’re fake news
That was the WSJ’s CEO Council. It was literally CEOs.
Lmao.
The amount of mental gymnastics hpracing has to do on a daily basis must be absolutely exhausting. Really sad.
Was pretty dark in that room…
Are you suggesting that the wsj stuffed the room with a bunch of people who looked like the ceos of large public companies, and the large public companies played along with it, in order to propagate the idea that they werent gonna be investing as a result of the tax cut? These are the members.

I have a simpler idea. Maybe the idea that trump is going to be able to unstick the growth problem just isnt backed up in reality.
You never know these days, this is the media we’re talking about.
I think the issue is you are assuming that abstaining to raise hands means no.
You’ve gone off the deep end, my dude
Two parts of this conversation:
- Tax cuts will lead to higher capital investment: This is generally true. Some projects that did not cut the mustard before (ROI inadequate) will get now get accepted. But that does not necessarily mean wage inflation due to several factors:
A. Projects might not be labor intensive.
B. Projects might not be domestic.
C. Fed will counteract any wage inflation.
- If the goal is to get the money in the hands of the general population - try giving them tax cuts - instead of hoping for trickle down.
There are many benefits of corporate tax cuts (including reducing the burden of unfair double taxation on investors), but those don’t get you (as many) votes. So you again sell this trickle down notion.
My goal for 2018: Determine if Turd is for real or trolling. Life is hard
2018 will be a great learning experience for all. Love you all, HNY!
