>>85420345If I spend all my money on fast food instead of buying groceries, is that the CEO taking money from me and everyone else? Or am I giving them my cash.
jew daycare jobs are essentially welfare
>>85420345Damn why don't the ceos just cover the difference I mean they earn 5000x more than regular workers
>Import millions of destitute retards who don't even try to get a job>Import millions of desperate crooks who take Americans' jobs for less pay and funnel all the money out of the country>Help Americans are broke and won't buy my burgers!
I should've shorted fast foods stock when I realized peptides were going to take off...
>>85421086How much of a raise would McDonald's or Walmart employees if every single dollar of CEO pay got redistributed?
>>85421097is immigration really the reason the us economy is in such a horrible state?
>>85421115if you redistributed the net worth of every US citizen with a net worth of at least $3 million it would be a one time payment of about $300,000. The vast majority of goyim would be broke again in less than 10 years.
>>85421142I think it's certainly part of it and should be reformed, but its effects are exaggerated and are just a convenient scapegoat. I think the real reason is that social media has demoralized people and everyone thinks that working is for suckers and you are entitled to money for playing video games or posting pictures of your food because other people got lucky enough to make money that way.I sound like a boomer but I remember when I was a kid sure there were kids that wanted to be actors, athletes, or whatever entertainment pipe dream but a lot of kids said their dream job was to do whatever their parents did, or be an astronaut, or the president. I volunteered with kids a few years ago and almost all of them said their dream job was to be a streamer or YouTuber.
Most Americans don't realize this but eating out is actually considered a luxury good. Americans are being pushed out of luxury goods because you are becoming a poor country.
>>85421163ah, so the economy is abysmal because little kids want to be youtubers. that makes sense
Nothing to do with payrates. The currency is based on nothing, and the financiers have printed and loaned the money supply into oblivion, while the institutions give preferential grants and contracts to their friends and family for free. The system will collapse and the parties responsible will have to be executed for treason for the issues to stop.
>>85420345Make a gta 6 burger and all these brown faggots would slop it up
>>85421187>eating out is actually considered a luxury goodI haven't gotten to eat out in months, all the stuff I used to like is too expensive to be worth it. I don't even order this shit through food delivery services, either. walking or riding my motorcycle over to subway is still gonna cost over 20 bucks for a meal. Same thing for a combo meal at a burger place. I can make 20 bucks last almost an entire week if I cook my own food
>>85421187Same shit with video games. People complain about them getting too expensive and yeah that's fair but you don't need them to live. Just stop buying them if you can't afford them.
>>85421195That's a symptom, not the cause. The economy is abysmal because anyone with a job is constantly bombarded with propaganda about "escaping the matrix" and how shit their life is because they get a paycheck every week. Anyone who doesn't have a job is told they should try to make to make money doing literally anything else if they can. It's anecdotal but I know multiple people who quit their jobs in their 20s to try to be podcasters or streamers and it didn't work out for any of them because it's not the get rich quick scheme people have been duped into thinking it is.
>>85421086CEO total compensation: Doug McMillon (CEO of Walmart through fiscal 2026, ended Jan. 31, 2026) received about $29.24 millionEmployees: Walmart reports approximately 2.1 million associates worldwide (stable in recent years; roughly 1.6 million in the U.S.).Yearly increase: $29.24 million _ 2.1 million employees _ $13.92 per employee per year.Hourly equivalent (assuming a standard full-time year of 2,080 hours): _ $0.0067 per hour (less than 1 cent).Many Walmart roles are part-time, so the effective hourly impact on actual hours worked would vary, but the order of magnitude stays tiny either way.I can do the same math for McDonald's and their CEO if you're interested
>>85421316Most of Walmart's employees could not do the job of the CEO, much less a VP or other executive.They also do not have the risk tolerance to start a business that could (but likely won't) become the next Walmart.Shanequah the cashier simply does not deserve to be paid as well as Doug McMillon.
>>85421310i think you're trying to skirt around the fact that covid, biden and trump's second term all contributed to the current state of the economy. none of your explanations so far are straightforward or cohesive
>>85421342What's the job -
>>85421342you have never met an executive in your life lol, most of them just sit around all day unassigned
>>85421357- Taking responsibility for basically all of the company's failures and essentially being the public face of the company- Making decisions where the wrong move would cost millions if not billions of dollars and leave many people out of a job- The ability to negotiate effectivey with companies that are constantly trying to screw you and steal from you- The ability to discern who would be good to employ and the ability to cultivate their talents (more relevant for a smaller business but still)
>>85420345i never had any money
>>85421352I'm not skirting around anything. Those are certainly factors that contribute and nobody is denying that.What isn't straightforward about people being disillusioned with working and not bothering to get education or cultivate a career, and thus not having any money?
>>85421382lmao wrong lol>Taking responsibility for basically all of the company's failures and essentially being the public face of the companyHAHAHAHAHAHA. you do realise CEOs are employees, right? they leave after 2-3 years>Making decisions where the wrong move would cost millions if not billions of dollars and leave many people out of a jobwrong, at a publicly traded company if things even get close to that the CEO gets fired by the board due to investor pressure. private equity doesn't give a shit if companies go tits up as long as they make a profit>The ability to negotiate effectivey with companies that are constantly trying to screw you and steal from youmost execs don't do that, those are specific accounts that people have to be assigned to>The ability to discern who would be good to employ and the ability to cultivate their talents (more relevant for a smaller business but still)most execs don't make hiring decisions
>>85421371seems like the primary job of a CEO these days is to do something extremely unpopular that will increase corporate profits then get publicly fired for $50 million
>>85421445>increase corporate profits*will increase private equity profits and gut the corporation and saddle it with debt
>>85421445It's blame laundering. You pay someone else to make an unpopular or immoral decision to save money so you can say "it was HIS idea, not mine". You see it all the time in business consulting. I have a friend who quit his job at McKinsey because all it was was going into some business and having the leadership or shareholders shoot down every idea he had that wasn't specifically what they wanted, which was usually something bad that they just didn't want their name attached to.
>>85421428>>Making decisions where the wrong move would cost millions if not billions of dollars and leave many people out of a job>wrong, at a publicly traded company if things even get close to that the CEO gets fired by the board due to investor pressure.So what happened at Enron? Or Lehman Brothers? Or any other high profile bankruptcy
>>85421467It's like saying gas prices are going up because of corporate greed. As though oil companies decided to be more greedy when Biden was President and less greedy during Trump's first term
>>85421469enron was fraud, not making a mistake. leadership at lehman (along with every other bank) were unaware of the risks of subprime mortgages until it was already too late
>>85421163>everyone thinks that working is for suckersI swear every wagie but me has acted like they're cool as fuck and work is a party
>>85421404>not bothering to get education or cultivate a careerYou're a fucking idiot. A larger percentage of the population is educated than any other point in human history. A larger percentage of the population is trying to cultivate a career than any other point in human history. A larger percentage of the population is being blocked out of careers despite their effort than any other point in human history due to a combination of factors (one of which is simply a direct result of the number of people trying to start one in the first place). You'd have a better point by saying the economy is suffering from not enough people giving up than saying it's because too many are giving up.
Total Billionaire Death is just on the horizon of history
>>85421187It wasn't for decades though. Going out to dinner was the most normal thing in the 70s and 80s. An entree was $3-$6 and it came with soup or salad.There were restaurants everywhere even in a mid-size town. We really took for granted how rich America was. America still is rich, but now all the wealth belongs to the hyper wealthy and they ain't sharing.
>>85423077the 50s all up until now was us basically trying to hold onto the 50s
No shit? Everything is getting too expensive even the 1% are starting to feel it.
>>85421163>working is for suckersWhen work can't afford you home, it is. Don't expect people to have any disposable income if they will be renters forever. It's just slavery at this point, except slaves watch themselves.
threadly reminder record profits = employees were not paid their proper value
>>85423121I don't ever remember having any kind of money, at any point in my life despite my qualifications, experience, whatever. I'm used to less. I'm just chilling, not spending, if things were better I would. But like I never had money, so I don't have a horse in the race. I never knew anyone with money that was someone I envied.
>>85421162$300,000 per head is a lotimagine if you have family
>>85420345I don't understand how a number in a ceos account make the relative price of goods go up
>>85424559Increasingly what you are paying for is not the raw materials or labor for what you buy, most of the cost is just siphoned away to super rich people.
>>85425443Yes because there's a thousand middle man between every transaction that wants a slice of the pie for doing * checks notes * nothing but charging fees for *checks notes*Nothing
>>85421382You just googled this and used the ai overview
>>85425471Nothing??? the middle men provide valuable services.Like how they make every Mcdonalds franchise use ice cream machines that break down constantly and are contractually only allowed to be fixed by their own overpriced repairman.A totally legitimate service and not a way to siphon away profit from franchises.
>>85425548Not a scam at all everything looks legit to me we're totally not making up stuff to take your monies
