Cut your hair, take a bath, get a job. August 9, 2020 8:39 am hank

The President’s executive order payroll tax holiday will only help those who are still working, not those recently laid off due to the virus, but it will be an absolute windfall for employers who provide half the withholding tax contribution. But I’m sure they’ll immediately pass the resulting savings right back to their loyal workers, n’est-ce pas?

And, as an added bonus, it will further cripple Medicare/Social Security funding; although THAT problem will have to faced by the next Administration, not this one..

But what, me worry? A good piece of my income comes from the investments made by my pension plan, and the stock market is BOOMING.

Trump may be incompetent and the GOP may be ruthless and mercenary, but they still know how to take care of their own. Well, at least, “their own” think so.
