WASHINGTON—A boom in employee bonuses handed out by some companies in the wake of the 2017 Republican tax cut proved to be temporary, Labor Department data released Tuesday showed.
Private-sector companies’ spending on nonproduction bonuses fell 24% in the first quarter of 2019 from a year earlier, the largest decrease for the category of benefit costs on record back to 2005.
One time bonus that’s taxed, as opposed to a living wage. BFD
Huh? Shocking.........
Who could have ever predicted?
Duh
4TaxFairness No! Really Who would have guessed?
It was a public relations stunt. The GOPTaxScam is still a scam.
Not surprising at all. 🙄
A bonus is a bonus for a reason otherwise it would be part of your regular pay. Not sure what the problem is here...
What a surprise
chadterhune Isn’t a bonus a one-time thing?
Truth. And this is from the WSJ…a historically and typically conservative republican leaning newspaper.
OMG - there were no bonuses during Obama years. Want want want - typical liberal paper.
Duh.
Imagine my shock. It’s real small so don’t try to picture it.
FAKE NEWS
Strange how all the bonuses were the same and given out at the same time. Almost as if it were done strictly for the news cycle. 🧐
'No one could have known that' - Donald Trump
