They are making a big deal about slicing off a very small portion of this big tax break to the "little people".  We should not have to give corporations hundreds of billions of dollars to get them to hand out a few million to employees.

It's smart PR, though. The masses will believe that these tax cuts made it possible (when they were always possible) and will vote for more deregulation and policies that put business before them because they think it will help them too. 

They're the same people who ignore the fact that the economy has been good for years under Obama.
