‘Crumbs’ that Nancy wouldn’t bend over and pick up.
Quote:House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said businesses across the United States are handing out “crumbs” to employees as part of recent tax reform legislation signed by President Trump.
Walmart joined a growing list of companies on Thursday that are passing along the economic benefits of tax reform to employees, but Mrs. Pelosi is not impressed. She told reporters during her weekly press briefing that Walmart, Southwest Airlines and other companies are merely looking for good press.
“In terms of the bonus that corporate America received versus the crumbs that they are giving workers to kind of put the schmooze on is so pathetic. It’s so pathetic,” the California Democrat said.
“I would hope that with their big advantage of bringing money home at a very low rate that they would invest in infrastructure and things, but our experience has been that they will do dividends, do stock buybacks and things like that,” she continued. “I think it’s insignificant.”
Exactly her problem. She thinks $1000 is "crumbs." As out of touch as "let them eat cake" Hillary.
$1,000 is crumbs. Especially when you compare to Mr richy rich getting a 50 million tax break. The avg person can barely survive one month with 1000 dollars.
While we're on the subject of crumbs and trickle down. The CEO of my company has been bragging about having lunch and dinner with Republicans in Washington. We're changing the 2018 budget right now. Nobody is getting a raise or bonus. We're not hiring either. The extra money we're getting is being allocated elsewhere. No trickle down for you.
ahhhhh......once again, the trolling tidbit......do we get a clue in what industry???
