publicly traded companies do generally have some level of democratic control, proportional to how much of it you own.

The fact that most workers are too poor to afford stocks is one of failing to develop generational wealth.

Yes, it is a failing of the poor for not creating generational wealth out of the crumbs they get to fight over.

You fucking idiot.

the choice to have more children than the parents can afford is not everyone else's problem, the phrase "it takes a village to raise a child" is great advice for wealth concentration when taken literally (few children inheriting from many parents)
