What a BITE in the ass: ThinkProgress’ Judd Legum claims WalMart bonuses are BAD (gets REKT)
So WalMart giving BACK to its employees is a bad thing. K.
1. Can we talk about these new Walmart bonuses? Because it's important. It sounds amazing: The nation's largest employer is giving all its employees up to $1K! Let's dig deeper https://t.co/PcS7YMOCvu

Judd is the kind of guy who comes to a birthday party and reminds everyone that a birthday is really just another year closer to you DYING. Seriously. If Obama’s admin had found a way to inspire corporations to raise wages for their employees and give out bonuses Judd and others on the Left would be calling him a hero for all the little people.
Of course, Obama would never cut taxes or regulations so corporations could do these things for their employees so it’s a moot point but still …
2. First, you have to work at WalMart 20 YEARS to be eligible for the full 1K. The average bonus will be about $190. https://t.co/RXYtgIVV1u

Here we go again, $190 isn’t a lot of money to these people. Forget that it’s two weeks of groceries, three tanks of gas, an electric or gas bill …
Imagine being this damn miserable that you feel the need to poo all over someone else’s good fortune.
3. Second, you have to put it in perspective. The total value of the corporate tax cut is at least $18 billion over 10 years. (Likely a lot more.) The value of these bonuses is $400 million. Walmart is giving it's workers just 2.2% of the tax cut.https://t.co/PcS7YMOCvu

SO WHAT?!?! Under Obama, they couldn’t give their employees ANYTHING like this.
