Corporate profits are the highest in human history, but they have mastered the broken wing act, always claiming hard times, despite stock buybacks and also collude with other companies to keep wages low. Used to be illegal to collude.

Corporations are the biggest welfare queens by far. Walmart, Amazon, etc. beggar employees -while doing stock buybacks citing excess cash - who then need our tax funded support.

That's neoliberalism, folks! We now earn 1/2 of what we would have by getting the "traditional" share of productivity increases. Instead, our wages stagnated while the wealthy hogged ALL the productivity increases. I entered the workforce in 1982 so then I only netted 1/2 the lifetime earnings. π±

Dr. Heather Cox Richardson today: "Historically, a system in which local economies support small businesses and entrepreneurs promotes a wide distribution of political power. In contrast, extractive industries support a system that concentrates wealth and power in the hands of a few individuals."π―π

Origin of confederate poison is the 1964 Barry Goldwater presidential campaign, according to Heater Cox Richardson's dissertation. Confederates fled west after losing the Civil War, then their destructive selfish exploitation ethos returned. See her book "How the Confederates Won the Civil War".
