    Re: Business, Economics & Tax Policy 7: Workers of the world unite!

    Why does everyone keep tying a short term bump in the markets to tariffs rather than a 30% reduction in corporate tax?

    Never mind that the deficit was up over 50% in August vs. last year.

      Oh boy, those Trump tax cuts really hit the spot. My employer just announced a 10% workforce reduction over the next three years. That's about 30,000 layoffs.

        They do?
        I see the two as conflicting forces and the tax cut influence is overcoming the tariffs and pushing the market up.

                Oh come on, scanning headlines or googling "30,000 layoffs" isn't that hard.

                  If you Google "30,000 layoffs", the first few things that come up are stories regarding Volkswagen.

                  Edit:

                  In fact Wells Fargo doesn't come up at all.

                  That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

                          yeah, the only reason the market's up is all the stock buybacks.
