400% is an old number, and it was pretty outrageous even back then.
Did it based on GM
How is the text related to the image? And where is the meme?
It's NASCAR legend Dale Earnhardt
The inspiration for these memes was simple: Nazis don’t deserve Saint Dale.
“The idea for the page came about back in early 2017 when the alt-right were trying to make anything they could into a racist meme, including cow’s milk,” said the person behind The Ghost of Ol Dale Earnhardt, who asked to remain anonymous. “I was pretty heavily involved in the Weird Appalachia Facebook group, where Sid Hatfield and Dolly Parton are patron saints of Cornbread Communism, and a huge fan of the Old Stone Cold page. Everything sorta clicked so I decided to combine all these influences and claim Dale as a meme for the rural southern Left, which at the time was mostly either ignored or laughed at.”
What does this have to do with Nascar? Is it just because of all the advertisements on the side?
I also wonder why Dale Earnhardt senior has suddenly been resurrected as the face of this anti corporate sponsorship meme stream when his entire career was entirely corporate sponsored
Because raise hell, praise Dale. Duh.

This ain't a meme
Facts dont care about your feelings meme /mēm/ noun 1. an image, video, piece of text, etc., typically humorous in nature, that is copied and spread rapidly by internet users, often with slight variations. "celebrity gossip and memes often originate on the site" 2. an element of a culture or system of behavior passed from one individual to another by imitation or other nongenetic means.
Maybe try looking up the definition of humorous, Mr. Dawkins...
That typically qualifier went right over your head Mr. Literal.
CEOs are the most leeching of scum the human race has ever made
At least when a king or empire extracted money - they'd invest it back into the kingdom in some way shape or form.
CEOs have zero reason to invest back into the labour pool.

They really did not. You may have had one or two that wanted more for the country. Most were just greedy shithouses who could not care at all. Unless they needed bodies for a war OFC, then the dynamic changes.
For all the people saying "this is not a meme" or confused about what it has to do with NASCAR, here's an article from Slate to fill you in.
This isn't really a meme, it just says how capitalism works. I guess it could be making fun if the stereotypical lefty meme though.
Where meme
It frustrates me how much workers have forgotten that they can gain immense power through unionization. Labor regularly votes down having more say in their own workplace. It baffles the mind.
Whoa! So edgy!!
