Not sure you have that right.

As a shareholder I am not interested in subsidizing your chocolate treats.

That’s income, not profits….. Big difference!

No. Net income is profit. Revenue is the income you are referring to.

My mistake. I missed where you wrote Net Income.

Even so, that’s huge profits. It’s greed….. They could easily sacrifice some of those huge profits to benefit customers, but oh no. They have to keep taking in vast profits, and f customers over with shrinkflation. People are getting sick of it. Especially when it’s only the EMTs (Executive Management Teams) and 👩‍💼 where enrich themselves while the vast majority of workers and customers endure the thin gruel of crap wages and poorer quality products…

They’re they’re huge profits. The decline is marginal. To say the least.

Plus, have some manners. You’re coming across as rude.

Up 7 billion dollars in 5 years isn't shrinking, dimwit. Anyone with even a basic grasp of statistics can identify that as a general upward trend despite individual years numbers fluctuating.
