Who knew corporations were so greedy
Why do you think I always mark NO when they ask us to agree to increase compensation for the top CEOs. What, their 5 million a year salary plus 10 million bonus isn’t enough, they need more poor babies? Wish there was a comment section grr!Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better.

Wages are a result of supply and demand. Takes a while to weed out all your illegal aliens...will be going up very soon as unemployment has decreased. Try doing something about ripoff housing costs and property taxes so people can afford a house.

Corporations that receive these tax cuts should have to raise wages and prove that they have done so, before they are eligible for these huge tax cuts! ...and Please don't even try to tell me that they can't afford the wage increases, without the tax cut!
