Jamie Dimon says the GOP tax bill will create jobs
Axios ^ | 12/13/17 | Anon

Posted on 12/13/2017 11:17:33 AM PST by DoodleDawg

The Republican tax plan that will cut U.S. coporate taxes will create jobs because "ultimately you're going to have a lot more capital retained and invested here," JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon said at an Axios event Wednesday at the University of Michigan. Dimon said current tax rate is "a mistake" because other nations have reduced taxes while the U.S. hasn't.

Why it matters: Republicans are nearing a final agreement on tax legislation to cut corporate rates from 35% to 21%. Some economists have warned the increased corporate profits wouldn't be used to create jobs

So how many jobs will be created at JPMorgan Chase? And will the almost monthly round of layoffs be ending?

NPR did a hit piece on this by using Nebraska’s tax cuts as proof it would be catastrophic.

It’s kinda like saying Massachusetts health care system is proof obamacare would work.

It was, quite frankly, a deplorable report.

I know my 401K is loving it. But let's not pretend it will be a job creator.

Well, it WILL be a job creator for private sector jobs. For public sector jobs, not so much. In fact, it is my hope that it will cause losses of governmental jobs and jobs that feed off the public sector such as contractors and consultants.

Of course it will lead to job creation. Idiots who state otherwise are either dumb, disengenious, or, well, that’s it. Oh yeah, maybe drank the Paul Krugman koolaid.

AI is already being used to determine when to execute stock trades, etc. It's getting to the point that individual investors can't compete.
