It comes after the fast-food chain released its fourth-quarter earnings on Tuesday. The US senator tweeted on Friday: "Corporate greed is Chipotle increasing its profits by 181% last year to $764 million, giving its CEO a 137% pay raise to $38 million in 2020 and blaming the rising cost of a burrito on a minimum wage worker who got a 50 cent pay raise. That’s not inflation. That’s price gouging.” Chipotle did not immediately respond to Insider’s request for comment. The company’s earnings reports showed a total revenue increase of 22% to $2 billion compared with the previous year. Chipotle’s earnings report focused on revenue, rather than the profit that Sanders referenced.“ *** The largest online progressive news show in the world. Hosted by Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian.
