Wait, didn't the Dems say the tax bill was a give-away to the 1%, who knew Waste Management workers are in the 1%.

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Waste Management, Inc. announced today that, in light of the meaningful contributions of its employees and the new U.S. corporate tax structure, the company will distribute US $2,000 in 2018 to every North American employee not on a bonus or sales incentive plan; that includes hourly and other employees.

“We are about to get a tax benefit as our U.S. corporate tax rate goes from 35 percent to 21 percent. In considering how to best spend that, we wanted to find a way to help grow our economy, which in turn, will help grow our business, and give some of the tax savings back to those hardworking employees who do not get the opportunity to participate in our salaried incentive plans,” said Jim Fish, president and chief executive officer, Waste Management.

“So, we are offering each North American hourly full-time employee and salaried employee who does not participate in any sales incentive or bonus plan during 2018, a cash bonus of US $2,000 to show our appreciation to so many of our valued employees while growing our business and returning a good portion of the tax savings directly to the overall economy,” he continued.

Approximately 34,000 qualified Waste Management employees could receive this special bonus.

$2,000 Wow. That's 6 years worth of wages for the average Venezuelan.

By borrowing money that you don't have to give tax cuts mostly to corporations which pass small percentage of it to workers?

Obama borrowed a lot more that he didn't have, and gave nothing to the corporations. That's no way to run a country either.
The Trump way is the only way.

So he did not bail out the banks or create ObamaCare as a gift to healthcare industry?

Remember Obama got McDonalds to hire 80K people one month during a time they were closing stores all over the country.
Our tax dollars went part time min wage jobs for 80K people. This was while people were losing their homes, but those same people were saying Obama was saving us from the Great Depression.

You Idiots realize Trump could have done this in 2009 right? We could have never known anything about the Crounut.
Which btw was driving factor for the .0000033% gdp growth in 2009.
