The concept of serving the Public, as opposed to serving the Shareholder, has become lost, as the allocation of profits to those who seem to be able to afford to control the selection of Government, becomes more apparent..... In 1967 when the US Railroad System was declared redundant, the diversion of dividends that were at one time feeding the Widows and relatives of former Railroad Workers, as well as those who invested in Railroad stock, was condensed to a few systems that fed the needs of a selected group of individuals. The Profits that were diverted to the companies that served the investors in Oil Production Inventory, became the most competent and profitable funds..... The current failure of the environment to support this obvious greed, has proven that the Rockefeller's may not have been the most selfless individuals to appoint as our advisors...... We could ask Warren Buffett about investing in Railroad Stock?
9 extremely rich billionaires clicked the thumbs down button while sipping on their cocktails in a caribbean tax haven. In the meantime, you better get back to work ...
When the corporate tax rate was above 50% company's where encouraged to invest more, not less. Taxes encourage investment. The corporate tax rate should be 80% on the excess profits.
People can smell the problem, but it can be hard to see exactly where the rot is coming from. The hope of this is… it’s so very fixable. We can have a thriving capitalist economy and country that is good for workers and business people. The hard part is fighting against the power that the accumulated money can wield in implimentation
The Winter 2014 issue of Columbia University's magazine "Columbia Ideas at Work" contains an article entitled "Hedge Fund Activists' Real Returns" by Professor Wei Jiang. The article says "New research shows that stock price jumps following hedge fund activism are the result of genuine productivity gains, not merely financial engineering." Professor Jiang, along with Prof Alan Brav of Duke U. and Prof Hyunseob Kim of Cornell U. conducted the research by looking at 650 instances of shareholder activism between 1997 and 2004. The myth of maximizing shareholder value through shareholder activism and democracy is therefore not a myth, but is real and verified.
Lower tax, a flat rate, will increase the tax base. It's not true that lower taxes decrease tax revenues. The push back to this comes from lawyers and those who benefit from a larger government.
The Trump tax cuts increased tax revenue by 25 billion through increased activity but lost something like 90 billion for a net loss of 65 billion iirc?
I thought I smelled something when I started watching videos from this channel, but now I see that I have stepped in a big pile of Soros. Please Mr Billionaire, tell me how you would like the oligopoly to run.

Does this surprise anyone?
