          Quarterly growth at 4.1% for the quarter.

          But...in the first six months of 2018, revenue tax collections fell by $50 billion compared to the same period a year ago, a drop of roughly 30 percent. These are actually 20% below CBO projections. Largely as a result, the annual deficit could hit $1 trillion as soon as next year and will remain above that level for the foreseeable future. Most unusually, this happening at a time when the economy appears to be picking up steam and headed for what could be the longest expansion in history.

          This results in a 75 year low in corporate tax revenue. We may get back to Obama levels of deficits after a decade of this type of growth. Problem we will already be dead due to the deficit.

            Tariffs. You forgot the tariffs.

              I don't think the deficit or debt is a huge issue honestly but there are far more efficient ways to spend that money and stimulate the economy.

                Just wait until the planned offshoring due to the tariffs takes effect.

                  Comcast officially loses out to Disney on the purchase of 21st Century Fox. https://money.cnn.com/2018/07/27/med...ote/index.html

                  International regulators still have to give approval, and corporate rubs-and-tugs still to be given, but it's otherwise a done deal.

                    They should let Comcast buy Fox Business and Fox News. That way we can get that **** off the air.

                        Comcast already owns NBC. A real news channel. And CNBC. A real business channel. They can buy Fox and dump it. Eliminates the competition. I'm sure other companies have swallowed up competitors before just to destroy them. I would.

                        Not that hard to follow.

                          Uhhh... Windmills do not work that way. Fox isn't a competitor of NBC or MSNBC. There is almost zero overlap in their consumer bases which is kind of incredible considering their demographics overlap. It would be like saying the Howard Stern Show is a competitor to Radio Disney.

                            Fox News was never part of the deal. The Murdoch family spun it off and retain ownership of FNC and FN Business.

                              Tariffs? Oh yeah, there'll be news about them every day:

                              Today, Coke announced prices are going up as they're passing the aluminum tariff (that is to say, tax) on to customers. You have to love corporate welfare at the public's expense.
