    American companies have lavished Wall Street with $171 billion of stock buyback announcements so far this year, according to research firm Birinyi Associates. That's a record-high for this point of the year and more than double the $76 billion that Corporate America disclosed at the same point of 2017.

    Only 13% of companies' tax cut savings will go to pay raises, bonuses and employee benefits, according to a survey of Morgan Stanley analysts released Thursday. 43% will go to investors in the form of stock buybacks and dividends, the analysts predict.

    We'll find out in November. PA District-18 has been significantly redrawn and nowexcludes the rural areas that were used to water down the votes of Democrats in Pittsburgh, a DNC stronghold.

    Most of that is from the repatriation of overseas profits.

    Pro Pelosi - are you kidding ?? Most R's are pro choice with restrictions. Most R's have no problem with private sector unions. All R's despise Putin. He is pro ACA with fixes. He is for border security. What does anti big business mean ??

    Where does he stand on school safety and gun control ??

    You can fabulate all you want, silly dude. You are much further left than you want to admit, to the left with Lamb. You love Pelosi, don't you. AFM, you don't have a clue, dude. :)

    Saccone was hard right and would have won two years ago. How Trump has changed things for the Alt Right and you guys. :)

    The only energy the GOP has is lawlessness and obstruction.

    You better hope that this BS you spewed is wrong, because you are going to have one devastating butt-whipping coming in the midterm elections.

    Don't pick out the drapes yet. Your blue wave may just be a baby blue ripple.

    I don't think the democrats will will all the elections, but they should pick up quite a few seats.

    Remember the Alt Right only likes Polls with which they agree.

    Generic Congressional Poll
    Poll     Date Sample Democrats (D) Republicans (R) Spread
    RCP Average 3/1 - 3/13 -- 45.7 37.8 Democrats +7.9
    Economist/YouGov 3/10 - 3/13 1291 RV 43 38 Democrats +5
    Reuters/Ipsos 3/9 - 3/13 1411 A 38 30 Democrats +8
    GWU/Battleground 3/4 - 3/8 1000 RV 49 40 Democrats +9
    Quinnipiac 3/3 - 3/5 1122 RV 48 38 Democrats +10
    Monmouth 3/2 - 3/5 708 RV 50 41 Democrats +9
    Rasmussen Reports 3/1 - 3/4 1000 LV 46 40 Democrats +6

    Thank you for validating "Remember that Rasmussen and Marist are the exceptions that prove the rule" and that Alt Right disagree with polls they don't like.

    2018 is far different landscapes politically and culturally than 2016, but not so much economically as America rides the Obama economic wave.

    :)
