Walmart spent $30.8 billion on stock buybacks over the past 5 years, juicing its CEO's annual compensation to a jaw-dropping $26.9 million in 2023.

That was 976x the pay of the median Walmart worker, who made $27,642.

Stock buybacks are a scam to make the rich even richer.

When few workers are unionized, wages remain stagnant or decline.

Without adequate competition, prices and corporate profits rise.

The result? Wealth is siphoned off from workers and consumers to large corporations and shareholders.

It's a vicious cycle.

"If Ivanka weren't my daughter, perhaps I'd be dating her." -Donald J. Trump, 3/6/'06

Happy Fathers Day to all the dads NOT contemplating dating their daughters.

Typical pay for the 100 highest paid CEOs was over $29M last year.

Much of the compensation was tied to stock gains.

Just so happens that corporations spent ~$800 BILLION on stock buybacks, which artificially boost share prices.

Translation: CEOs are goosing their own pay.

When Trump says, "The real verdict will be on November 5," he's basically admitting the the purpose of his presidential campaign is try to escape the consequences of his crimes.
