Bloomberg skriver om en sak som gått under radarn i de svenska medierna och som kanske förklarar en del:
Corporations have brought back more than $1 trillion of overseas profits to the U.S. since Congress overhauled the international tax system and prodded companies to repatriate offshore funds, a report showed Thursday.https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-12-19/u-s-companies-repatriated-cash-hits-1-trillion-under-tax-law
Even so, the total remains well short of the $4 trillion President Donald Trump said would return as a result of the 2017 tax law. The flow rose to $95.3 billion in the third quarter from a downwardly revised $70.4 billion in the previous three months, according to Commerce Department data, reaching a total of $1.04 trillion since the end of 2017.
Det är mycket som "råkar" gå under radarn...

Rank-and-File Workers Get Bigger Raises
Short supply of labor, minimum-wage rises and increased poaching have helped lift wages for lower-income workers
Citat:
Rank-and-file workers are getting bigger raises this year—at least in percentage terms—than bosses.
Wages for the typical worker—nonsupervisory employees who account for 82% of the workforce—are rising at the fastest rate in more than a decade, a sign that the labor market has tightened sufficiently to convey bigger pay increases to lower-paid employees. Gains for those workers have accelerated much of this year, a time when the unemployment rate fell to a half-century low. A short supply of workers, increased poaching and minimum-wage increases have helped those nearer to the bottom of the pay scale.
Pay for the bottom 25% of wage earners rose 4.5% in November from a year earlier, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta. Wages for the top 25% of earners rose 2.9%. Similarly, the Atlanta Fed found wages for low-skilled workers have accelerated since early 2018, and last month matched the pace of high-skill workers for the first time since 2010.
“A strong labor market makes the bargaining power of lower-paid workers more like the labor market higher-wage workers experience during good times and bad,” Nick Bunker, economist with job search site Indeed.com, said.

Höjda minimilöner har ju trumpen blockat, för man kom snabbt fram till att den första höjningen försvann i tomma intet.Det är mycket som "råkar" gå under radarn...

Men lågkonjunktur är på ingång, det är där vi ser sen hur illa ekonomin är skött.
Men med tanke på att statsskulden skenar fortfarande och i den bästa högkonjunkturen i Universum.
Det berättar den permanenta skattelättnaden var ett socialbidrag till rika, helt utan syfte mer än att göra dom rikare.
Vilket är udda med tanke på hur rädda man är för socialism, att man ser hellre ger mer pengar till de som har, än hjälper de som få har.
Dock vet vi redan spelar ingen roll vad Löfven gör, så kommer du alltid hata det.
Så det du skriver där betyder precis ingenting för nått.
Och en sak som är lite roande dock, det är hur man mäter statsskulden hur det ser ut nu.
Och inte funderar på hur det påverkar nu när det har vänt, och den nivån man är på väg till.
Och dagens statsskuld är mycket pga Bush den yngre, och dessa avregleringar som gjorde bilmekaniker kunde köpte miljonvillor.
Och sen fick staten ta smällen.
Det är dax att man ökar skatten REJÄLT för de rika, och sänker för de allra fattigaste.
Dagens skattesystem i USA har varit fallerat länge, men efter den sista skattesänkningen för de rika var 100% onödig.
Och för människor som inte ens har behov för dom, och mycket ska ha mer är inte ett behov.

Google to end use of ‘double Irish’ as tax loophole set to close
Internet company to consolidate all of its intellectual property in the US
Citat:
Google has overhauled its global tax structure and consolidated all of its intellectual property holdings back to the US, signalling the winding down of a tax loophole estimated to have saved American companies hundreds of billions of dollars.
Citat:
Google said by moving its IP from Bermuda to the US it was reacting to changes in US tax law designed to limit the ability of companies to cut their US tax bills by holding intangible assets offshore.
The Trump administration’s tax reform, passed two years ago, imposed new taxes on companies’ excess profits from IP held overseas, partly to encourage American businesses to bring IP back to the US.
