U.S. airlines American Airlines Group (AAL, -0.72%) and Southwest Airlines (LUV, -1.96%) said on Tuesday that they would give their employees a $1,000 bonus in light of the recent U.S. tax bill.
Wow, so generous. BTW one of the last quarters I've seen for AA the profit was something like 1.5 billion. EMployee number 130 thousand.
I also wonder what fraction of the upcoming HC premiums increase would a 1000 bucks cover. The mandate is gone so now somebody else ( I wonder who that is) will foot the bill.
I'm sure there will be winners and losers in the new tax reform and most will have a nice little bump in their income like this.
it sure is far from the disaster and dooms day scenarios that the Dems told us it would be.
If they would stop crying wolf at everything Trump initiates people might actually come back to the Dems side and consider them in 2020 but this dooms day sky is falling alarmist shouting is getting really old.
They need to be more rational and work with the current administration toward a better America.

You mean that the American citizens are no longer being held hostage to the insurance companies? Oh no, now the insurance companies will actually have to do something to lure customers - like lowering prices and providing better plans than what they do now. How will they ever survive?

Gotta love when the left brings this up, HC premiums, however, I have asked several times, without an answer....you mean like the 220%+ increase in Alabama premiums over the last few years?....
This reminds me of how people got excited for those $300 checks GWB sent out early in his presidency....
