Trump's top economic adviser can't contain his surprise after CEOs say his tax plan won't make them invest more
https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-apos-top-economic-adviser-201900842.html
White House economy adviser Gary Cohn appeared perplexed this week when a room full of CEOs said that the Trump administration’s tax plan wouldn’t inspire them to increase capital investments, but experts say that their reluctance to say they would should come at no surprise at all.
During an event for the Wall Street Journal’s CEO Council, an editor at that newspaper turned to ask the room a question: “If the tax reform bill goes through, do you plan to increase investment — your company’s investment, capital investment?” Prompted to raise their hands if so, very few shot their palms into the air. Mr Cohn, the White House Economic Council director, smiled uncomfortably at the response.
“Why aren’t the other hands up?” he asked, making a joke out of the spectacle.
