^ why would a company cut profit
as punishment for fucking up and reducing company profit
cut profit litterally means falure
In the case of Nintendo yes, it was his own salary but he got money from shares
What you mean is you want executives to be punished when the company fucks up
remember that the overwhelming majority of Profit is reinvested
How did you draw that conclusion?
If you think companies *should* reinvest more of their profits into their company including human capital, that is fair. I don't think a company should be forced to do so.
Because you said case in point nintendo
But nintendo didnt give their workers more pay
They didnt in fact increase their worker's benefits in anyway
No changes to the culture
I’m sure that money went back to the company in some way
You gave no evidence that nintendo did anything to help workers
the only thing the CEO did was take a reduced salary
Therefore what you want so far is for workers to get more money any way possible and for executives to sacrifice for it
Profit is the money earned ABOVE the cost of doing business, including salaries of employees, this excess money is used to expand companies such as adding more products, more services, and updating infrastructure
and also more employees
Its also used to create a buffer for when the company doesnt make profit to allow it to continue to operate
I have no issue with a CEO willingly taking a smaller salary to reinvest more revenue into the employee salaries, if they want to do so. I am against forcing them to.
If a company does that and you like it support that decision by buying their products/services.

If a company doesn't then do the opposite.
That's how a free market works
exactly
You dont even have to buy their products or services to support them or hurt them
You guys clearly want to maintain a strawman for any view to the left of Sauron. I feel I have wasted my time with basement nerds. A shame Tim’s community is not equally open minded as he is.
very true now-a-days
you can speak out against or in favor of them on social media
Nothing in your state priorities was about freedom
@RekItRalph What exactly are you trying to promote here? YOu have only made one solid statement that you thnk rich people don't deserve their money
Be more clear in your position if I'm not accurate
What you did was a charicature of leftist talking points and then acted surprised when people thought you were a leftist
What is more liberal than a free market
B-but theres a class system so its not communist
I just want to redistribute the wealth to workers by making the owners give up their wealth and giving the workers what they're owed
Thats not communist or socialist
true, it is still stupid
Ill also spout the marxist theory of labor but i really dont know where you guys are getting this idea that im a marxist from
