I am very confused. If these men are for a socialized health system then why are they even including the topic of employee provided healthcare in relation to stock repurchases? Healthcare should not even be on the table. What are these men’s motive?

So sick of Democrats telling others what they can and can’t own, sell or buy!

They really want to destroy the economy

BernieSanders SenSchumer the best news from Washington DC in a long time, stop the fraud of pumping stocks ...fed

What’s the point of publicly owned companies buying their own stock? Isn’t the whole point of becoming a publicly owned company to raise capital in public markets through the issuance of stock? Stock buybacks are a scheme to distort (raise) stock prices and boost exec. bonuses.

This is NOT their money. Hands off what does not belong to you

These two douche nozzles might consider focusing on naked short selling instead

Instead they’d have to invest in retooling and long term capital investment :shudder:

Buybacks should be illegal. Give money to shareholders, pay off debt.

They really should stick to what they know about

Companies spent 140 times more on stock buybacks than wages and Americans should be 'outraged,' say Sanders, SchumerCompanies spent 140 times more on stock buybacks than wages and Americans should be 'outraged' say Sanders, Schumer Since the media, oddly, doesn't give a crap, I'd say they're right.
