Profits shouldn’t exist. They should be required to put that money back into the company and take a salary for themselves. Idk how this works with shareholders but they can get fucked for all I care at this point.
Companies need shareholders to get off the ground, and you don’t have to be rich to be a shareholder. That’s the whole idea… otherwise only the mega rich have the capital to start businesses.
Paying C-suites this much is just idiotic though. I own a few stocks, and seeing some of the companies pay executives and upper management so much to feud and slowly destroy companies makes me sick. It is not what anyone sane wants unless they’re parasitic daytraders or drinking the corporate kool-aid.
Greedy capitalism is the problem, but it’s also a culture problem, I think.

The way you fix this is with higher, and enforced, corporate taxes. If the corporation doesn’t keep the money anyways, they flow it back in.
