The Democratic Response To Companies Doling Out Bonuses To Workers Remains Abjectly Pathetic

Democrats are choking on crow for opposing this tax bill. Are they this economically illiterate? You pass the most extensive tax reform in nearly 30 years, it creates a better job creating and investing environment, and companies begin to boost U.S. investment, dole out bonuses to workers, some increase wages, and make declarations that charitable donations will go up. Yeah, that sounds bad, or something. It all centers on the notion that the Left thinks that your money is their money, and that the government, preferably run by over-educated, snobby liberal elitists, know best to allocate how that money is spent. Namely on programs that foster dependence so when reforms are due, as with any socialist program, the Left can attack the opposing side as being anti-poor, anti-middle class, anti-children, and make apocalyptic calls of people dying in the streets. It’s whatever creates the most hysteria, peddled by their allies in the news media.
With this bill, it’s blown up in their faces. Eighty percent of Americans will be getting a tax cut. Over 90 percent of the American middle class will be getting relief. Over 100 companies are handing out bonuses, with over a million workers receiving that extra cash. For the first time in 11 years, CNBC’s economic survey showed that a majority was optimistic heading into 2018, with more crediting Donald Trump for the booming economy. So, how do Democrats react to this news? Well, they say that it won’t last; not the best spin, folks (via HuffPo):
