For a long time, liberals have bashed shareholders as greedy, heartless scum who pressure or force companies to needlessly cut jobs and benefits. And, you know what? In many cases, shareholders are in fact scumbags who, using hired "analysts," push companies to make unnecessary cuts in jobs and benefits.
So you would think that liberals would be happy about the fact that the Trump tax cuts are enabling many companies to buy back their own stock. When companies buy back their own stock, they reduce or eliminate the the influence and number of their shareholders. But liberals don't seem to understand this fact. Liberals have been bashing companies for using some/all of their savings from the Trump tax cuts to buy back their own stock.
