Reported in Paul Ryan deletes tweet touting woman's $1.50-a-week raise as proof of tax bill's success. (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 2/3/2018)
Hypothetically, of course.
$1.50 (assuming gross pay) X 52 weeks = $78.00
$78.00 divided by 2080 hours (assuming full-time employment) = 0.0375 or 3.75 cents.
If she is paid $40,000 per year -- probably on the high side -- she received a 0.2% raise.
If she is paid $30,000 per year, she received a 0.26% raise.
Wow!
