People so quick to blame Biden should probably look more closely at just what the oil corporations are making in profits! Exxon made $2,245 A SECOND during the first quarter of 2022…that’s January, February, and March! I bet it’s even more now! Some will say that that is good since the profits get sent on to the shareholders. But if you stop and really look, who are the majority of the shareholders? The very rich who also happens to be the executives or the aboard dog directors! The Congress should pass a law that prevents CROs (and other executives) from receiving huge numbers of stocks as “bonuses”! They don’t pay for these share but they end up with the lions share if the profits! A good example of this was Disney in the 90’s. Eisner was the CEO and made something like $12 Million. But he got 298,000 shares as bonus. I personally own 12 shares and every year for a decade or mote I get a check for $10 as dividends for those shares …that’s $.83 a share. Meanwhile, Eisner was getting $247,340 for shares he DID NOT PAY FOR! AND he was also able to SELL those stock for profit! How is that fair?
