If a company makes 10 billion dollars, they should be able to hire more people or pay everyone more. Instead that money is siphoned by unemployed bums who have absolutely nothing to do with the company - the “investors.”
If this system weren’t already in place, we would consider it completely comical.
Except their profits need to also cover:
Reinvestment in the Business: This includes spending on research and development, upgrading equipment, expanding operations, and improving infrastructure.
Debt Repayment: Reducing existing debt to strengthen the company’s financial position.
Dividends: Distributing a portion of profits to shareholders as dividends.
Share Buybacks: Purchasing the company’s own shares to reduce the number of outstanding shares and increase the value of remaining shares.
Employee Compensation: Providing bonuses, raises, benefits, and other non-salary incentives to employees.
Mergers and Acquisitions: Acquiring or merging with other companies to expand market reach and capabilities.
Savings and Reserves: Setting aside funds for future investments or as a buffer against economic downturns.
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR): Investing in community projects, environmental sustainability, and other social initiatives.
Marketing and Advertising: Increasing brand awareness and market presence through marketing campaigns.
Technology Upgrades: Investing in new technologies to enhance efficiency and productivity.
