you could afford for the world to end

Rick Nolan’s Armageddon is a lot different than Minnesotans imagined.

Radical Rick has railed against tax reform, saying that it’s “an underhanded and unconscionable attack on America’s middle class.”

But yesterday — two of Minnesota’s biggest banks, TCF financial and U.S. Bancorp, said they are “giving bonuses to workers, increasing charitable donations and telling investors to expect lower tax expenses as a result of the new federal tax law.”  They are also significantly raising their hourly employees wages.

December 19, 2017: Rick Nolan votes against historic tax reform.

January 2, 2018: Middle class employees of U.S. Bancorp and TCF Financial massively benefit from historic tax reform.

January 3, 2018: Rick Nolan silent.

The end of the world is awesome and affordable.
