Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., will introduce legislation Wednesday aimed at making the nation's largest companies accountable to employees and their local communities, not just shareholders.
In an op-ed for the Wall Street Journal, Warren said companies in the late 20th Century started operating in a way that made them slaves to shareholders.
"That shift has had a tremendous effect on the economy," she wrote. "In the early 1980s, large American companies sent less than half their earnings to shareholders, spending the rest on their employees and other priorities."
"But between 2007 and 2016, large American companies dedicated 93% of their earnings to shareholders," Warren added.
She said that change has also prevented large companies from ensuring wage growth kept up with productivity growth.
Your as old as me. :^)
In honor of Fake Indian Warren, I’m introducing two acts, “The Political Insanity Act” which will get lunatics like her out of Congress, and the “You’ve Got to Tell the Truth Act” for all political candidates.
The last one should eliminate about 95% of all Democrats/Progressives running for anything from dogcatcher to Congressperson.
Warren is lying on steroids, dumb as a bowl of hemorrhoids, and red as any commie (but not an Indian). She and Bernie Sanders should be starring in a new movie, “Dumbest and More Dumbest”, coming to a landfill near you, soon.
“Hey, she’s not a communist. She said she is willing to allow private ownership as long as it serves the will of the state. Isn’t that generous?”
So she’s a national socialist.
She’s too stupid to be an idiot Jim.
Little Princess Sack-O-sh!t have heap plenty wampum. She no share with other tribes. She heap big hypocrite.
Man, I hate it when Leftists live up to the script written for them in “Atlas Shrugged”
lol pocha-honky- would be funny if Trump would call her that
These people have lost their collective minds.
Adolf Hitler had high cheekbones, too.
A guy named John Kingston ran an ad during the NESN broadcast of the Red Sox game tonight. It started out by saying Elizabeth Warren was more interested in running for president. It then listed some of his issues including congressional term limits which the supreme court has already ruled unconstitutional.
The ad never listed a party. I went to the Green Pages to check out the race. He is in a three way race for the Republican nomination. The primary is on September 4th. He has raised $5.8 million vs about $1.5 million for his opponents. Elizabeth Warren has a $10 million war chest she does not have to spend on a primary.
Btw, I am in Maine so the ad buy was for all of New England.
Be very alert. THIS is where national socialism starts. She is calling for nationalizing corporations. She dresses it up with direction and concern but it is nazism at its finest. This is what the left is always all about....communism/fascism
She is a bit of a joke isn’t she. And not a good one.
A buffonish retromingent idiot.
“In the 1980s, large American companies sent less than half their earnings to shareholders, spending the rest on their employees and other priorities.”
This is just another way of saying that companies today have much higher productivity and are much more profitable than 35 years ago.

The squaw is running for president! How about a government accountability act first Fauxahontas?
That was to give some background as to why Elizabeth Warren is even in the US Senate. All that being said, speaking up for more fairness and higher wages for the US worker could easily be an excellent campaign issue. It's one of those things President Trump campaigned on and the US Senate, HOR, and businesses that have benefitted from the tax cut and the improved economic environment haven't delivered on.
Just keepin' it real.....
Looks like someone with deep pockets is helping this guy out and Trump if she decides to run in 2020. Whoever it is he’s killing two birds with one stone. MAGA....
Her bill would also let employees elect at least 40 percent of the company’s directors, and at least 75 percent of directors and shareholders would have to sign off on decisions to spend money on politics.
Wish I could take credit for that one. I picked it up from the SF Conservative talk radio station's Morning Show.
