        Employees and customers, just like every corporation ever.

          “customers” meaning the communities?

            Where else do you imagine dividends come from?

                  There’s no need to link me to my own comments. I did not.

                    You can deny it all you want, but profits still = income - expenses.

                    Every dollar paid to a shareholder is a dollar stolen from someone who works for a living.
