Corporate America.



No such thing as too much profit.

Is there no such thing as Americans 401K plans rising too much. We are the the corporations.

You get a pittance whilst the owners make billions.



You are not the corporations...you're the chickens that they through the scraps to.

We are the owners. That's what stocks are, ownership. The more you own, the greater the potential gain. But, also risk. Unionized teachers, cops, steelworkers, and even socialist xenophobic train engineers are able to provide sustainable defined benefit pensions for their due paying members thanks to the market place. It's a win win arrangement.

The stock market is one big casino and the house rules.

Seoul is a good poster..



Investing for your future security is a long term thing....expect bumps along the road.

I don't think that's the issue. My gripe is the way investors get paid AFTER the CEO's, Directors and others get massive payouts.



And many of this corporate "profits" come from "downsizing" and "automation".



Soon, there will be no investors, because there will be no middle class workforce.

You are wasting your breathe on Seoul. He's a corporate zombie.

Yeah, but I see his point too. Corporate profits are essential to retirement investments. If there was no investment, the taxpayer would have to pay ALL pensions, and that wouldn't fly. I just get annoyed at CEO's getting paid 16 million a year (QANTAS - Australian airline) while workers are laid off and jobs are sent overseas, just because the "profit" went up.



Profit is perfectly OK, but with a social and moral aspect. When CEO's directly benefit from workers being made redundant, something is inherently wrong.

I fear you are losing faith. Part of the war on progs includes the capitalists who will sellout the working classes. They are the same people who want open borders to force wages down.

Agreed.

Seoul doesn't want to sellout anyone  IHJ.
