        Corporations have RECORD CASH FLOW & PROFITS RIGHT NOW. Why aren't wages higher? Why are 78% of Americans living paycheck to paycheck?

        Greed is why. workers are not going to see more $$ when taxes are cut, just more profit for the crops.

        I have 2 small business that employ 14 people. I pay $15/hr minimum to support them. How about giving small US biz a break instead?

        That's a lie! Corporate profits continue to increase, while workers' wages remain stagnant... 🤔

        Lower corporate taxes lead to higher CEO salaries and management bonuses. When you end any statement with "White House says" #lies

        There is no assurance lowered corporate costs will lead to hourly pay raises. Executive salaries and dividends are more likely to rise.
