ustralian jobs have never faced a greater threat than they do under Malcolm Turnbull’s government.
Press J to jump to the feed. Their trickle-down economics theories have found a new home in Australia.

Donald Trump is once again trying to pass off the old Republican lie -- that corporate tax cuts will create new jobs and increase worker wages. As the reigns of Reagan and Thatcher will attest, the reality couldn’t be more different. Almost none of them did so. And corporations benefit tremendously from stashing profits overseas, thereby avoiding taxation entirely.
As has been widely discussed, wage growth is finally accelerating, with a, The first clue to the corporate tax cut’s lasting effects will not be GDP growth or productivity or wages.

More recently, a formal poll of CEOs conducted in the summer by Bank of America and Merrill Lynch about the idea of temporarily relaxing corporate tax rates in an effort to encourage companies bring back profits earned overseas found that 65 percent of executives wanted to use the money to pay down their corporate debt. Cutting corporate tax won't create jobs.
Across-the-board corporate tax cuts don't do much to create jobs.
The Journal editor’s informal survey belied what Cohn himself had said just days earlier about what he claimed CEOs were telling him about tax cuts. so taking the money the business retains by lowering their tax burden and giving it to the executives and shareholders, you're effectively robbing your own consumer base of their ability to demand more products, simply because they can't afford them. It’s too early to tell whether the corporate tax cuts are working. It’s possible that the executives weren’t interested in raising their hands after a long day of droning speeches but there are other indications that the informal survey was not just a fluke. When Congress introduced the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, President Trump described it as a first step toward “slashing business taxes so employers can create jobs, raise wages, and dominate their competition around the world.” The use of immediate tax savings on past investments is beside the point.

With or without it, you'd have good people doing good things and evil people doing bad things, but for good people to do bad things, it takes religion. Jobs, growth and competitiveness don’t “trickle down” from corporate tax rate tinkering. This debate has raged ever since the corporate cuts were adopted in December 2017.

Now if only American workers could somehow see real statistics on all their peers' compensation and collectively bargain for better pay. This will drive up wages, as employers try relatively harder to retain their existing workers and to attract new ones (both from other businesses and from outside the labor force). Tax cuts don't cut costs, they just hand shareholders money. Frankly I'm beginning to be more pissed off at all the fucking idiots out there who vote republican than the sharks at the top. Rex Tillerson, the current secretary of state, enjoyed $27 million as CEO of ExxonMobil in 2016 and a $180 million stock payout for entering government service.

They will, reluctantly, hire a person if they think that person can help them exploit a market with unmet consumer demand with the hope that the improvement to the bottom line will be greater than the cost of the new hire's salary.

A new report from the Institute for Policy Studies shows this isn’t true. It’s certainly possible under some scenarios that large tax cuts could stimulate such behavior but there are no real indicators that such a policy would set off a domestic economic boom. The tax law may have affected wages, but not through the investment-productivity-wages channel I discussed above.
“The most excited group out there are big CEOs about our tax plan,” Cohn, a former Goldman Sachs executive, told CNBC last Thursday.

How sensitive is investment to capital costs and depreciation rates?
If there is money to invest it is often in automation or other forms of headcount reduction. If they create jobs and pay good wages/benefits then I don't see why they need to pay high taxes.
It's a perfect example of the real motivation republicans have behind deregulation of various markets. It's not because a deregulated "free" market thrives, its because a deregulated market is vulnerable to pillaging and rape by the ultra-wealthy CEOs and their piece of shit Government puppets (In this case, the Bush family).
