Well we all knew that would be the result, just like this is the result of Trumps policies

American companies have brought $1 trillion back to the United States since the passage of President Donald Trump’s tax cuts in 2017, according to new U.S. Department of Commerce data.

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-12-19/u-s-companies-repatriated-cash-hits-1-trillion-under-tax-law

Corporations have brought back more than $1 trillion of overseas profits to the U.S. since Congress overhauled the international tax system and prodded companies to repatriate offshore funds, a report showed Thursday.

On top of that news we have this:

    3.1% pay raise for troops - the largest in a decade!
    $130 million in funding for modernizing military mobility
    $4 million to prepare soldiers for combat in extreme climates
    $1.2 billion to bolster our Navy and Air Force fleets with additional aircrafts

IF they didn't know that would happen it illustrates that some are as dumb as a box of rocks.

They know, they just don't care.

The vote buying and party line come first.  The people aren't even on the list.

The unskilled and under skilled workers are going to take the brunt of the inflated minimum wage laws. My mom was always crying that the Republicans were trying to do away with the middle class which was also the war cry of the Democratic Party. With this inflated minimum wage and the across the board inflation that it will bring my wages will go from slightly middle/ upper middle class to high low wage earner. Those on a fixed income will be screwed.

You have to Wonder how many votes those laws got the lefties over the last couple of years? Also wonder if it will change anyone’s mind about where their  ote should go next election? (Doubtful)
