Great for Wall Street, not so great for the country. Because the average worker who got a 2 percent raise this year (and no bonus) sees this story, and then the idiot goes and votes for the communist dems to get revenge.
You get the point completely. The idea is to pursue policies that make 50+% of the electorate satisfied with the economy. Reliance on private industry or reliance on government - majority wins on election day.
Average wage was up over 4% this year. Why do you think most people get no bonus?
