Walmart says tax bill allowed raise hikes

[RealDave]

You earn the money, its YOUR money not governments. That we get to keep OUR money really eats at Democrats.

Oh jesus ******* christ, not this stupid argument again.

If you have $1000 more this year because of a lower tax rate, you have it because the tax cut gave it to you.

I wish you ******* cheap ass Trumpettes would support this country without your ******* constant whining.

" Boo Hoo Boo Hoo the government is stealing my money"

Salary increases for some stores, upper management, and slight cost raise in products sold in store. always watching there bottom line. good for there business consumers not so much. that's how it works. when 12 conglomerates own every thing things should get real interesting.

It's estimated that 90% of people who get a paycheck will receive some kind of tax cut. WTF is sizable and who decides that?

 

[BulletProof]

It's hard to believe the tax bill allowed the raises, given that Walmart is also doing away with thousands of jobs (closing a number of Sam's stores) and lowering the pay of thousands of managers (replacing "co-managers" with lower-paid "assistant managers").

Besides, business don't give raises just because they can afford it... you ******* retards.

Businesses give raises they have to, to retain employees. And, with the higher wages, they have to cut costs someplace else, all other things being equal. And, indeed, it does appear Walmart is being forced to cut costs.

 

[BlueGin]

Walmart is lying.

Yep....it didn't happen....or if they did....it's just crumbs.

Crumbs in liberal speak = if it's welfare moochers... it's not enough they need MORE. If it's the middle class ...it's not enough so they shouldn't get ANY.

Actually it's 50% and they won't see anything until they file their tax returns at the end of the year. Which will gradually decrease over the next 4 years, and will then end, and become permanent tax increases. Corporations and multimillionaires keep their tax cuts permanently.

Oh, and those 50% that will get their temporary cuts that will turn into increases are also going to get cuts to their Medicare and Social Security benefits, and many will lose their healthcare benefits through Medicaid and ACA subsidies they recieve now.

But not to worry. This will be remedied over the 4 - 8 years.

Your very own CBS disagrees with you. According to their reporting, 90% of people that get a paycheck will see a tax reduction IN THEIR PAYCHECKS.

90% Of Workers Likely To See More Money In Paycheck Next Month

There are no cuts scheduled in the bill for SS or Medicare. Those are predictions made by the leftist MSM to scare people. What the Republicans did say is to reform those programs. In other words, make them work more efficiently to save money. Nobody said anything about cutting like Obama did when he ripped off Medicare to fund Commie Care. This is entirely different than what he did.

Expiration dates are a political tool used by both sides. If you want to see your tax cuts continue, vote Republican. If you want to lose them, vote Democrat. Even Commie Care was only funded for 10 years.

My oldest son came over this afternoon and we watched NFL playoffs. He got a $1000 bonus from financial firm where he works.

leftists hate this

Walmart is not taking funds from their profits for the raises and bonuses

they are using the money the feds would have robbed them of

but thanks to the tax break they can give it directly to the people

One wonders if your son knows that he will have to pay that money back with INTEREST, when the tax cuts expire and the $1.4 Trillion borrowed by the treasury to finance this tax scam will have to be repaid.

The Real Reason Walmart Raised Its Minimum Wage

but according to the liberal media, Democrats are the REAL behind the scenes heroes

But then they've just closed a load of stores and a thousand people have lost their jobs.

Exactly, unlike the 10 trillion DumBama spent that doesn't have to be repaid.

Sure, moron, those poor Waltons couldn't scrape up a ONE dollar raise after their revenue last year was a "mere" $123.36 billion ......LOL

 

[Wyatt earp]

You need only look at the CEO salary to know what they raise because they can:
Walmart CEO Doug McMillon Got a Solid Raise Last Year

They raise their top management salaries when they can. They raise worker wages when they have to.

Do people really think they couldn't give the CEO a mere 2% raise and use the difference to give their workers more money? What's he going to do, quit and work for a fraction of the $? Bullshit!

I see you got an F in math 3.5 million divide by a million workers equals out to a one time bonous of $3.5 dollars

Mr. **** head.....Obama's massive borrowing went to save idiots like you from an all-out depression.....saved the auto industries, the banking industries and kept the unemployed with benefits until jobs were again available.

If sick bastards like you just want to slam him......go right ahead since....after all...you ARE sick and resentful [AND IGNORANT] bastards.

For those that wonder, he has no problem there. His area of business is alternative investments.

 

[Thinker101]

Let’s see, the libs want minimum wage to go up. They piss and moan about the tax cuts, swearing that all the greedy corporations will keep all the tax savings. A number of companies, Wal-Mart for one, says they’re going to increase hourly wages, some giving nice bonuses. Now they piss and moan about getting a raise or a bonus???
