The 100 lowest-paying major US corporations spent $522B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2023.
Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay.
The typical worker at these companies earned just $34k.
Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $14.7M.

Corporations must payback the government what they’ve gouged from the social welfare system to artificially increase profits and pay shareholders ‼️
For real though that’s insane. It’s time to start valuing human life again.
He has spent his entire life predicting this, that and the other thing. And not always being Nostradamus at it either.
Another day. Yet another lie. Probably one of many over the next 24 hours.
Corporate Welfare.
Ronald Reagan was the worst thing to happen to America!
Nothing we are experiencing today is possible without that monster!

Reagan - of course.
so much of the ruin of america started with that mf-cker.

they saw the chance to hook up with oligarchs and undo everything FDR did.
We have 300+ signatures in 48 hours!
Floridians, join me!!!
Florida doesn’t have a recall mechanism for Senators, but since we’re ignoring the rules….
