Tax Bill Favors Wealth Over Workers Says Critics
In a sharp critique, the article argues the tax bill mainly benefits corporations and high earners, with 91 percent of relief going to those earning over five thousand dollars annually. It notes workers in the 80 percent bracket receive only nine percent of relief and warns of skewed incentives and rising inequality.
Profits Rise While Economy Feels Strain Amid Tax Changes
The article notes GM record six month earnings aided by tax cuts, Westinghouse and GE hit all time six month highs, while labor stats show June factory hiring at a 1930 low. Government plans a $350 million spending push to spur activity ahead of elections, raising questions about misaligned profits and rising living costs.
