Hillary Tells Biz to Share Profits

Give workers a piece of the pie.

Hillary Clinton called for corporations to share more profits with workers in an economic-policy speech delievered Monday. “Hard-working Americans deserve to benefit from the record corporate earnings they helped produce,” she said. “So I will propose ways to encourage companies to share profits with their employees. That will be good for workers and good for business. Studies show profit-sharing that gives everyone a stake in a company’s success can boost productivity and put money directly into employees’ pockets. It’s a win-win.” Clinton also attacked Republican presidential candidates Jeb Bush, Marco Rubio, and Scott Walker, marking them as her most formidable opponents from the other side of the aisle.
