Data on how much profit America's biggest companies make per employee, and how much goes to shareholders. yourfairshare.info

We don't condone arson. But it has to be said.

Kimberly-Clark made $2.55B profit last year, $67K per employee. They gave $1.8B to shareholders. A $10K-$20K raise for every worker, with plenty left over. The worker who burned it down made $18/hour.

Walmart is warning tariffs will force price hikes.

Last year: $21.9B in profit. $15.6B paid out to shareholders. 2.1 million workers earning a median of ~$17/hr.

The money to absorb costs exists. The question is who it goes to.

The $117 billion tax break Trump handed the 1% is more than federal spending on:

-The Agriculture Department at $89.2 billion
-The Education Department at $46.9 billion
-The Labor Department at $22.7 billion
-The Energy Department at $20 billion

The rich are getting richer by robbing us.

Effective 2025 federal tax rates paid by these corporations:

Alphabet: 8.01%
AT&T: 4.6%
Meta: 3.57%
General Motors: 3.09%
Amazon: 1.37%
Exxon Mobil: 1.31%
Disney: -1.57%
CVS Health: -3.88%

Income tax rate paid by the typical American: 14.5%

This is what a rigged system looks like.

Oracle reported profits up 80%. CEO got $412M richer in a single day when the stock jumped. Last year they paid $6.2B to shareholders. They made enough to easily give everyone $30K raises, instead they laid off 30K workers. yourfairshare.info/company/oracle #labor #layoffs #oracle

Don't forget the part where we also handed a huge victory to a murderous geopolitical opponent of the United States by jacking up the price of oil and simultaneously depreciating the stocks of the exact type of defensive weapons our true ally needs to survive.

hot take: i think the move in the direction of a more explicitly extortion based international order is bad actually. I also do not especially relish the idea of re-boning up on mercantilism

Trump threatened to start a nuclear war and some liberals took to BlueSky to angrily critique a post about a movie — IT’S SO PERFECT 😂

UnitedHealth made $12.1B last year. They paid $13.5B to shareholders. More than they made. The profit they're extracting from patients isn't going to better care. It's going to c-suite salaries and stock price.

Apple spent $97.8B on stock buybacks last year. More than the GDP of most countries.

166,000 employees. $674,759 in profit per worker. That money could have gone to the people who made it possible.

CVS made $1.77B last year.

They paid $3.56B to shareholders.

When a company pays out twice its profit, where does the extra money come from?

300,000 employees. yourfairshare.info
