Shareholders shoulder the risk by investing hard-earned money in a company's stock. Improving the share price by stock buybacks is our reward for taking that risk. We also are the losers when they fail. I am a shareholder & I am certainly not "at the top."
-
There is a question of proportion here I think you are ignoring. Sure, you take risks with your hard earned money . . . but are you forgetting the people who are also at risk earning your hard earned money?
-
You obviously don't understand that one of the ways a business raises money to operate is through the sale of stock. If people weren't willing to assume the risk of loaning them money through stock purchases, many business would fail due to lack of capital.
-
Bullshit. This is about companies with SO MUCH EXCESS capital buying back their own stock and you whining because workers might get something back for their investment. Investors are important. But they don’t assume all the risk and don’t deserve all the reward.

The greedy are people like you who think you deserve something that doesn't belong to you. Those who assume the risk deserve the reward.

Honey - I make 6 figures, I own stock, and I manage a P and L for a living. But unlike you, I shake hands with people who unload trucks and can’t afford a doctor’s visit. I’ve gotten everything I deserve and so have you.
-
Yeah, while you were shaking hands with the less fortunate, I was sharing my largess with them.
-
The idea these folks can work full time, all of their lives, can’t afford health care or college for their kids and you call them less fortunate - like, whelp, what bad luck
Guess U’ll share my largess with them. Ridiculous. - 2 more replies

How sad you have no understanding a stock buyback helps employees of the company they make the company more profitable. They make employment more dependable. All investor such as fireman and school teachers who have 401ks stronger. Steamroll these people to get one rich person

@scottawarner1 I see that you OWN a company. I don’t necessarily think that qualifies you to speak for all of us Blue Collar workers that are getting chewed up and spit out by the large corporations of America (that are stuffing money into their OWN pockets-not ours)#RewardWork

Why do you have any right to a corporation’s revenue?
-
They were given the huge tax breaks under the guise that they would create more jobs and provide better pay. Profits in the pockets of CEO’s instead hardly does that.
-
Well that doesn’t answer my question at all. The corporation offered a good or service to a consumer in a voluntary transaction. The government has no right to that money. Where do you think CEOs put that money?
-
Where do I think the CEO’s put the money they saved via the tax breaks ??? .... read my comment again.
-
“In their pocket”. Pretty hard to put a few million dollars in your pocket.
-
Don’t want the money taxpayers gave you to go to your employees? Don’t do business in America.
