How about they clawback some of the fat dividends they’ve been paying out?
Let them go bankrupt, then nationalise them
This. Exactly.
Need to top up their executives’ pay somehow.
Really love how they never consider cutting their board’s pay.
Let it run out. Businesses should be allowed to fail. That’s capitalism.
If the state want to buy the assets for a bargain price, so much the better.
Yep, how can the benefits of competition and reward play out if there’s no punishment for failure.
They didn’t even fail, the company was intentionally brought to the edge of bankruptcy by taking out huge loans it could never hope to repay so they could fund bigger dividends. Then the people responsible got nice big payouts as they walked away.
Capitalism for the poor, Communism for the rich.
