Why should it be up to me what a private company does with their money?
(I mean, I get the economics of pools of money sitting in the hands of the few but we really have Congress and the Fed to thank for this economic model we have now.)
Elections have consequences, and so does ObamaCare.
Morons elected a hard left ideologue who threw a huge wet blanket on the American economy and now they're blaming the Corporations.
It has to those not waiting for a handout. Too many expect it from 30-hour work weeks.Along with 30 years of coddling corporations and the wealthy in the insane hope that the wealth would "trickle down".
I agree with you.
I think the counter argument is that thing Bush called "compassionate conservatism", or what some call "responsible capitalism".
That is, considering the vast disparity in wealth distribution in this country, would those holding the money be acting in a responsible and humane way if they raised wages a bit? Increased benefits a bit?
1) one time bonuses for employees
2) cut prices and see if sales increase and even more profits are made
3) give out raises
4) provide more benefits to employees
5) provide an actual and HONEST cost of living increase to employees

I'm sure everyone has ideas on what people or companies should do with their money, but does anyone have the right to tell people or businesses what to do with their money? Do you? Does the government?

I have a few thoughts on what they could do with it.

I agree.
Our government shouldn't be coddling anyone...whether wealthy, poor, corporation or individual. All should be allowed to sink or swim based on their own choices.
Well, certainly a portion of it anyway.
You have no idea how business works, do you?
Really?
What give you that right?
Typical conservative mindset that views giving someone a leg up as a negative, and thinks everyone that's sinking has made bad decisions.
Not me, the government. Unless you think that paying your fair share is unfair.
Do you think government should pick winners and losers? Do you think government should compensate the losers? Punish the winners?
Do you, with your liberal mindset, think that is a positive action?

I have no idea what you think "fair share" is, so I don't know if it's fair or not.
I believe we should have a benevolent government who's job is to assist, and promote the welfare of all its citizens. I'm not too interested in your selfish, calloused world.
Well, are you a supporter of the US military. How about the roads you drive on? Are you being intentionally coy?

What a way to describe the fastest growing economy in the free world. You are a piece of work.
If they buy the Dallas Cowboys 437 times they will be the proud owners of 437 losing teams....
it should come as no surprise that predatory capitalists are hoarding cash.....anymore than the sun rises in the east.....they spend it freely on efforts to obstruct economic, social and political justice which means essentially that they support the Republican party....who are indeed the "Handmaidens of the Boardroom" ... Thus as it's ever been .
