I'm still waiting on Reagan's tax cut to trickle down. Something tells me it isn't happening this time either.

My spouse out of her special one time bonus rec'd $200 bonus from Home D., after taxes, it was roughly $100. Lots of people at HD got bonuses but they got slammed w/ every kind of deduction that HD could think of, so roughly cut 50% out of everyone's bonus pay. Wow!

Thank you, I guess?
