are planning a multi million dollar campaign to try to sell the idea of the tax cuts. They must be afraid of the backlash. They could be doing so much good with their money but instead just want to push their ideology on Americans. I realize they donate to the arts, but people need the basics of life.

I was hoping they would have done it a month ago or more. They would have bought themselves some good PR and maybe saved everyone from a lot of grief. If the public doesn't have extra cash to buy their products/invest in their companies, then they lose in the end. Like Ford...paid his people more in wages so they could afford to buy his cars.

Congrats to them for standing up.
