Come on now , he acts like a 7 year old.
He has been an as s hole all his life and will never change.
He had nothing to do with the rise in the DOW.
He is in it for the publicity and to increase his financial position.
Although it does make for great reality TV he loves his rating , I find him to be the best comedian of all time .
Sorry but he makes the USA a very sad place.

Federally it's $7.25.
Any raises in wages and bonuses by big corporations will mostly be at the executive level.
Woodsman By "talk" I mean it has been publicly announced these companies have stated they will be raising wages and offering bonuses once the bill is signed... this will become a trend and help the US economy as well as its citizens... I think its a good thing for the USA,but for those that blindly hate trump nothing will change their minds.. its the first big tax break the US sees in decades and they will find something to complain about..all the while our government is taxing is left right and centre...

fishermccann's post (#10) hit the nail on the head.
How many workers for big corporations on the floor get bonuses. This is far more common at the executive level.
Try an internet search about the disparity between workers and CEO's.
Yes the big bosses deserve more but the disparity can be far excessive. In one case over $150,000,000 per year. Walmarts CEO is at over $25,000,000.
For big corporations giving an executive 10 million would be cheaper than giving workers a 10 cent an hour wage increase.

Yey Woodsman - current minimum wages have nothing to do with Trump - as more jobs are created employers will have to pay higher wages if they want workers - and Judge - you sound like a typical liberal - just call someone names without any substance - you need a Trump up there in Canada to make Canada great again

You betcha! The village idiot we have now is a disgrace. He needs to go back to drama teaching.

kokes what size of raise (general worker on the floor per hour) do you figure would cause a noticable effect in the trickle down effect?
