Boosting stock prices brings more investors into the market, improves the market capitalization of a company allows it to expand and hire more employees.
Just giving money to workers doesn't do anything for workers in the long term.
Boosting stock prices makes the stock holders richer, but does nothing to help the worker. Trickle down has been tried before, and it has never helped anyone but the rich.
If a company grows, it hires more workers. I see more jobs as a net positive for workers. Maybe others see it differently.
