https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/23/us/politics/corporate-tax-cut-pay.htmlSpeaker Paul D. Ryan, for example, said in a recent speech that fixing the business side of our tax code is really all about helping families and workers, adding that cutting the corporate tax rate means more jobs here in the United States. It will foster increased competition, which will directly drive up wages for our workers.
Right, and building a runway on our island will cause airplanes to come and bring us lots of precious cargo.
