Stock buybacks were made illegal after the market crash for shits and giggles then, huh?

stock buybacks have never been illegal.

I'm going to need a source on your claim that stock buybacks were mandated and for that purpose.

The non-monetary compensation argument is stupid because most of it is due to ridiculously inflated health care costs.

...exactly? HC cost have risen well above inflation rates and employers are the ones covering most of that cost to keep their workers covered. No one is saying HC cost aren't cutting into wages, but that's not your employers fault.

It is also dubious because the "equivalent value" doesn't take into account whether employees actually use it. I have an amazing healthcare plan that's worth a lot, but I barely use it because I'm healthy.

No one gets insurance to regularly use it... it's insurance. The fact that you are covered for catastrophic care that you wouldn't otherwise be able to afford isn't a small thing.
