    True courage would be paying the bonuses after year end. But just like Obamacare, businesses are politicizing their decisions to justify their lobbying dollars.

    ATT is smart. Pay the bonuses this year so they get to deduct from their tax return. While employees pay more taxes on it this year. And they were going to invest in 2018 anyway for 5G. So why not announce it as part of the tax package?

    You really aren't very bright are you.

    There are reasons to be skeptical of it but if you're a trickle down truther this is a victory. Long way to go though. Stop acting like you've won.

    No win until it's signed, but then, this win is YUUUUUUGE!

    Right. Explain how I'm wrong.

    ATT will write off all payroll expenses this year and next year, regardless of this new tax law, right?

    And, if they don't give the bonuses at all, they earn more profit, right?

    Why is nobody talking about the fact that the the individual changes (but not the corporate ones) expire in 2025? After that taxes go back up for most Americans.

    They're looking at the end game, while you're celebrating a 1st down like a fucking Coog.

    Because that's how it's always done. It will have your dems voting against it again in 7 years so there's that

    Your concern is noted along wit Hondo's

    Nice that you guys care. Thanks

    How many times does it have to be said? They want to pay the bonus this year because they can deduct 35% of it. Next year its only 21%. Then downside is, the employee pays higher tax on it if done before the end of the year.

    What part of that basic concept is lost on you?

    What would they pay if they didn't pay a bonus at all?

    Not that I'm surprised. But the point is lost on you. That's great they are paying a bonus. True courage would be paying it after year end so the employees pay less taxes on it.

    Paid shills have no interest in the truth.


    I explained it. Does this mean you will light yourself on fire LEAVE!?

    Argue how I'm wrong. If you put together a valid argument that I'm wrong, then I'll leave.

    Your if-then proposition is another, continuing farce. For the countless fucking times you've been asked to explain yourself - we're still waiting.

    Everybody except Boobs knows who is the fucking fraud. Your explanation is the one we deserve. How much do they pay you to be here spewing this propaganda bullshit?

    You don't have a point. You're a butt hurt fag trying to explain why lower taxes and a bonus is bad thing

    Good luck with that
