So they're going to lay people off because they can't sell as much. In order to give out the severances for those layoffs, they'll use savings from the tax bill.

So in other words... they had to lay people off no matter what because not as many people are buying diapers and baby wipes. The tax bill though is enabling them to give better severance packages than they otherwise would have.
I thought trump and the tax bill were all about jobs and helping companies develop more jobs in the US.

And I'm sure a tax bill can make the birth rate go up, too.

An MBA discussion group this is not. Goodness gracious.

So you can only make diapers in certain facilities,maybe retool the facility to make a different product?


I see being part of the real working world is elusive.


3.3 Billion profit ,I'm sure they could find something for those employees to do.

I see you ignored the comment from the tangerine president and would rather take a swipe at me instead.

The tax bill is funding the layoff's,is that the intent of the tax bill,to help companies lay off workers or was it to help "create jobs",like we were told?
