not to want to bash the success of our free market capitalist system... but.. is there any wonder why/how all of us working stiffs are so far behind when it comes to this whole income inequality issue? they said they've completed $153 billion of a 200$ billion shareholder rewards program... giving up cash to the owners.. and they boast of a 25% income tax rate (because they left the us for ireland) and in addition they did almost $80 billion in just 3 months!.. plus they said that 66% of the sales came from overseas! and people want to know why our country is so ffffuuuckked?... Multiply these results by the top 100 companies in the US and and the $'s are staggering!.. we've got what a $18Trillion dollar deficit.. heck the DTCC Depository Trust Company does close to over $100TRILLION in trades each year or more.. think it may be closer to $400T... now if all the so called patriots in the form of Corporations were willing to say will donate a one time surcharge of say 5% of their earnings or shares or whatever assets they were good with.. Our country would be out of DEBT just like that!.. just saying.. too few taking too much from the Many.. i'm afraid to say.. just saying.. GLTA.. peace. stok
