Posted by WayneJay* on Wed Jan 3 11:23:01 2018, in response to Re: Thank you, President Trump!, posted by RockParkMan on Wed Jan 3 08:20:45 2018.* Absolutely! If not that, the new fees that airlines are so good at inventing. Here's my thing... I certainly can appreciate a bonus, but... If my employer is having a windfall and (truly) wants to share it with the employees... personally, I'd prefer something along the lines of a salary increase, added benefits such a larger contribution/match toward my 401k, and maybe lower the cost of other benefits etc.

Fact is, trump has done nothing about transportation (thankfully and equally curiously, everything he hasn't touched is thriving). Any bonuses that occur in that business, therefore, are benefits from President Obama's policies.

The incompetent Republicans have managed to leave open some loopholes that even lowly people like me can take advantage of. I may spend a fair amount of that loophole money on people less fortunate than me, but I certainly won't give it to the federal government to decide. They would just use it to cut Medicare funding.

That bonus is taxable income, so it must be reported on 2018s return (assuming the bonuses were given after Jan 1). So Uncle Sam might still get a little slice back thru the IRS.

Most of the good economic stuff is traceable to President Obama's policies, and the manufacturing is getting a boost from depleted inventories, it's been a good while. Once we ht the next budget cycle and Janet Yellen's out of office, all bets are off.
