UP is worth 98billion dollars. Each share is worth $144 dollars. 98B/$144=680 million shares. Each share receives $3.88 in dividends annually. If the share holders took a .10 cent cut in pay annually or 2 and half cents a quarter, that would save the company 68 million dollars. 68 MILLION DOLLARS!..............Hmmmm Lets see. 68 million / 70000 ($70000 is about 1 craftsman wages) = 9700 employees. .Ten cents would cover 9700 employees annually. Yes may numbers may be a little off but the point of this is. Who is UP looking out for shareholders or employees. TO MUCH WEALTH GOING TO THE TOP ON OUR BACKS.
