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. 😱
