Haven't noticed any extra money (yet)...we'll see. Couple more weeks? Be interesting to see if there's a bump.Quote:

No health issues last year...so...no deductible. Knock on wood!
Anyhow...had a "town hall" type meeting with the top management of the company a week ago or so. Someone asked question along the lines of "what's the company going to do with all that extra money from the tax cut". Interesting response. CFO said it was a net wash. No savings. More than likely higher taxes on certain items but they were still figuring it all out. Hmmm.
Looks like the budget ball got kicked down the beach...
So let's see if I have this all figured out... Democrats managed to accede to Republican demands, demoralize their energized base, give the president another win, and look like they held a meaningless three day government shutdown - all at once.
#MAGA
There's blame to go around...but...I might actually agree with most of the above.Quote:

Plus, we get to go through it all again if they don't get their poop in a scoop.
OK so is the Gov Shutdown over then? What was the compromise, if any?
They just kicked the ball down the beach. Approved temporary funding until 8 Feb.Quote:

For the fans here of the fake news "Clinton News Network" (CNN), even they had polls that showed the Democrats were to blame over the president and the Republicans.
Although "Trumpshutdown" trended way higher than "Schumershutdown" on social media...
Single item bills.
Ugh. Green eggs and ham.
....
So the preferred liberal version is trending higher on the extremely liberal social media sites..... what a huge surprise!Quote:

Oh my God I just laughed my ass off. That there is a friggin' nugget.Quote:

I have to agree with you, but without the word "probably".Quote:

McConnell made a great move when he promised DACA would be moved to the front of the queue "provided the government was funded". If Democrats attempt to hold 300 million hostage as they did in the recent shutdown they will just be picking up their shovels and renew digging the same hole that didn't work for them last time. I'm sure there will be more twists and turns, but it would be crazy stupid for the Democrats to try the same tactic in two weeks that just failed miserably.Quote:
