Oh yeah - if Loretta Lynch got told to leave there would be mass looting and rioting in the streets. Every major network would be broadcasting images of cars being flipped over, and storefronts getting broken into. It would be the Watts riots all over again.

I didn't bitch when that the christian bakery refusing to sell to same sex couple, the only thing I question was someone in pretty high authority going public about it. Sure its her right to and glad she handled the exit gracefully but that resturant is toast. Dirk likes women in power, I find her oddly sexy even with the nonsense she has to throw out on a daily basis. I'd hit it for sure.

Yeah, pretty gnarly. I've distrusted the mass media since the Bush/Gore election and what a freaking circus that was. This mid-term is going to be the extremely pivotal. I'm hopeful that the Right is going to prevail...because if the Dems win out then it proves that Trump was a fluke, and having whackos like Sanders and Pocahontas calling the shots means we're done for.
Can you imagine these violent freaks actually taking control of Congress? For anyone clamoring for a "third party"...I'd say let's replace the Democrat one to start. It's deteriorated to a carcass. I think the media and the Dems are going nuts because they're getting their asses kicked all over the place. Their power is severely weakened. It's going to be an ugly summer...
November, man. That's the big one.Suddenly my feet are feet of mud

Big difference though, I don't see Sanders turning this into a Supreme Court ordeal like the gays wanting the cake, going through all sorts of appeals to see if it's constitutional or not.
We all know the restaurant had a right to ask her to leave. But not everybody thinks the baker had the same right. It's a blaring double standard.

Cute chart, but even from that source, the devil is in the details. Some telling quotes from the article (CAPS my emphasis):
"...the [Bureau of Economic Analysis] keeps the names and sums of corporations repatriating confidential..."
"While it is not crystal clear how the lion’s share of funds returning to the U.S. will be used, pro-growth economists HOPE it will be used for hiring, boosting wages and other moves that will benefit the American worker and eventually TRICKLE DOWN to the broader economy."
"the last time repatriation funds saw a notable spike was in 2005, following passage the year before of the American Jobs Creation Act, which offered a tax holiday, among other tax benefits, under President George W. Bush. Yet, Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics, tells FOX Business, at that time the benefit to the economy was MINIMAL and will likely be the same this time around. 'The repatriated cash will go to MORE STOCK REPURCHASES, dividend increases, and paying for mergers and acquisitions. All of this has no significant impact on the economy' he said."
Regarding stock repurchases, this article just came out today that backs that observation:
Stock buybacks set new record in first quarter of 2018

Bottom line--these companies(that saved billions in taxes) have hired the entire available US workforce.
With no workers available, the price to keep good help has gone up, dramatically.
If ones wages haven't gone up, one might want to look in the mirror as to why.
The repatriated cash is TAXED, albeit at a lower level.
Simple math tells us, tax on something contributes more than tax on nothing.
Apple alone--will be paying 38 Billion in taxes in the near future on repatriated money.
They will be INVESTING 350Billion in the US economy.
AND--I'm all for rewarding shareholders, they are the backbone that holds up every tradeable company.
I hear no crying when the same shareholders, who take large risks, lose billions.
So, glenn, in your words--what is the downside here, for America?I'm not Spartacus

And--by the way--of the 305 Billion that has already been repatriated, YTD, has created 46 Billion in tax revenue.
I see where this might be a concern----if your a democratI'm not Spartacus

There is no scenario where bringing $305 billion back into the US is a bad thing.... despite what Democrats and the liberal media might tell you.
