Anybody can look these numbers up. I'm not sitting on some secret Bloomberg terminal LOL

Then why only mention revenue?

I didn't realize people can't do a 10 second google search on their own. 🙄

Net income isn't the whole story anyways, especially when this article points out that one of their costs is lobbying for a cause that isn't necessary. They're raking in billions of dollars every year.

"just Google it, bro" is never a source.

Not my fault you aren't capable of typing 4 words into a search engine.

It's not a 'source', bud.

Did you know profitability =! Net income?

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world -1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yes. Did you know that "just Google it, bro" isn't a source?

[–] stonedemoman@lemmy.world -1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Positing a claim =! positing a source. That's 0/2.

You can't count, either? That's rough, buddy.
