The big list of tax-cut payoffs: 18 companies announce bonuses, more pay, expansion

 Donald Trump

Editor’s note: WND is chronicling the response by U.S. businesses to the biggest rewrite of the federal tax code since the 1980s Reagan administration and a tax cut of as much as $3.2 trillion in the form of this BIG LIST OF TAX-CUT PAYOFFS. It will be regularly updated as more companies respond.
 
Before the ink was even dry on President Trump’s signature on the Republican tax-cut bill, corporate America was not only toasting it, praising it and celebrating it, but handing out money to employees like Santa Claus.

It started with AT&T expanding its bonus program to an additional 200,000 staffers getting $1,000 apiece.

Next came Boeing announcing a gift of $300 million in investment in its employee-related charitable program “to support our heroes, our homes and our future.”

Wells Fargo and Fifth Third Bancorp announced they would raise their minimum wage to $15 in the New Year, with Fifth Third kicking in an additional bonus of $1,000 to 13,000 employees.

  1. Companies are returning their manufacturing to the US, some companies are raising wages, and others are giving bonuses. Jobs are up for all races, the stock market is breaking records, and the economy in bounding ahead. Still, there are those who plot a coup to driver Trump from office. If Mr. Trump turned water into wine the Never-Trumpers would accuse him of being a moonshiner.
