Company stock buybacks should be illegal, especially when companies take on more debt to do so. It's straight market manipulation and provides zero value beyond the short-term pump (if that even happens).

Dividends weren't ended because of tax law, they were ended when execs realized the sheep would still buy stocks that didn't pay a dividend and then they could put that extra money in their own pockets by way of salary/bonuses.

It’s the right financial move. Let’s say the company issued only 100 shares and it trades at $10, and you made $20 in profit and want to give back half of that to shareholders. If you use that $10 to buy a share , the remaining 99 shares now each own an additional fraction of the company, with zero transactional cost. If you issue a $0.1 per share dividend of that $10 over $2 is lost in net transaction taxes before it hits the stock holder’s bank accounts. The loophole that needs to be fixed is both of these need to be taxed evenly or in a way that favors dividends so that money flows outward from investment to investor, rather than simply between former shareholder cashing out. It’s not manipulation it’s basic math and why every American company does it. Why waste 20% when you can pay 0%
 
Oh god I can't wait for Badman to return.

I'm actually a little worried for him at thus point, we might need to do a wellness check at this point.
 
Literally went out for lunch, then came back and saw all the green, and just laughed at work. I am seriously considering ending half my e-mails with "Thank your for your attention in this matter!" just because you can't do it for all of them or that would just be silly.


From before the W, people realizing free trade and austrian economics is just words and gay when it's never put into practice correctly:

do you just ignore 100% of the reality that doesn't correspond with what you want?

he's keeping 10% on everyone, removing the increased tariffs from countries who have already dropped theirs on us, and is increasing tariffs on china. apropos of nothing, what size burger suit do you think would be the most uncomfortable while still fitting your tiny, stupid, soyfilled body?
