Ted, > Well now we know where the money for R&D and new hires is going..........

You really have no friggin' clue how business works.

Companies aren't holding back on R&D and new hires because they want to increase dividends. It's the other way around. They're increasing dividends because they have to hold back on expanding.

And the primary reason for holding back on expansion is the hostile business climate, brought about in no small part by government intervention.
