The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024.

Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay.

The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year.

Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M

See the problem?

It took me like a hundred years but I finally noticed that they gave the Trex a Groening style overbite in this Treehouse of Horror episode.

Cartoonists are great.

The trex is coming in for a bite, notable it has a comically large overbite
