...job expansion, increased dividends, stock buybacks and M&A activity.

That is great news.

Increases in dividends is equivalent to demand stimulus, albeit in a free market manner.

Stock buybacks and M&A lead to redeployment of capital.

Win/win/win/win.

Imagine that!

Plus it will allow Democrats to disingenuously scream about Republicans helping the 1% so its a win for tgem too. So much winning.

lol, you know not how this works. Conveniently forgetting the millions of Americans that would benefit, in multiple ways, if all that cash was brought back.

If the USA has a competitive corporate tax rate, lot of good job will return the USA and new jobs created.

Ireland has benefited from $277bn (£182bn) of US direct foreign investment in the past two decades – gaining more from American firms than Brazil, Russia, India and China combined.

Repubs know they have a dedicated internet army that will parrot whatever is asked of them, without questioning it or deriving it for themselves.

If you checked some of those sources you ignore, you'd be educated on this subject. Repatriating cash would be significant in multiple ways with a couple being stock repurchases (do you have any idea how that would impact normal Americans with 401k,etc.?). Also, no company wants excess cash just laying around as it provides no return, so that cash would be reinvested in infrastructure which leads to new jobs both for folks that make the infrastructure(buildings, machines, etc) and those that operate the machines, etc.

Do you have an IRA? If you do, do you own any stocks, or ETFs or mutual funds? If you do, you would probably own Cisco and many other stocks and benefit from the dividends and buybacks. Union and public sector pension funds own Cisco. They benefit. Do you not understand these really basic principles of finance.

In Cisco's case, 73% of the funds shares are owned by mutual funds and ETFs, that is, the little guys.

Instead of accusing people of parroting, maybe you should spend some time learning about how the financial system works. Then maybe you'd discontinue making naive, uninformed remarks.

No. No, he does not.

I've asked him a half dozen times where he went to school and what he studied (because I'm genuinely intrigued how someone can come out of any school so confused), and he refuses to answer.

That much is abundantly clear.

Your trolling act has changed from that naive woman you posed as before. What are you now?

I don't think you know how businesses work.

First of all the average Cisco Employee is making pretty good bank
Job National Salary Data
Senior Software Engineer $91,197 - $157,526
Network Engineer $48,533 - $112,398
Project Manager $67,317 - $120,430
Customer Support Engineer $63,255 - $101,709

Second of all these companies only grow and stay competitive based off of the plowback they put into the business.

Quite the opposite, in fact.

It's not about you, or me. It's about the MILLIONS of people that would benefit.
