Why don't record corporate profits trickle down?
Why don't job creators create any jobs with their record corporate profits?
Record corporate profits. In a recession. While everyone struggles to get by.
Corporations can raise employee wages and pay for it with record profits.
The stockholders don't want them to raise wages.
They want the dividends, thus the trickling down is taking a different path and taking longer because of the amount of investors.
Nonsense. Wages are set where you get the employees you need to maximize profits. That means if paying more generates more profit, you pay them more. If it doesn't, you don't. My best employees already are paid the most, and they get the most raises. My low performers get little, I get nothing for raising their wages.
