#BANSTOCKBUYBACKS they only hurt workers and fuel massive amounts of money to the ultra wealthy by artificially inflating the stock price of said company!! THAT is another reason workers never see wage increases
Walmart spent $43.4B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2025, enough to give each of its 2.1M workers annual bonuses of $2,953.
Last year, retiring CEO Doug McMillon pocketed $29.2M — his largest payday ever and 958x Walmart's median worker pay of $30,520.
Textbook corporate greed.

Omg, has Josh Hawley gone woke? He's spot on in his criticism of Boeing, and it applies to virtually every large corporation. Now, will he introduce legislation to ban stock-buybacks and limit upper management pay? #BanStockBuybacks #HoldCEOsAccountable
