shit, the average public corporation is a more representative democracy than the US's actual government is.
I had to scroll back up to make sure I was stilling the same thread
average US corpo is just 1 vote 1 share, just right there it's more equal representation than the US government has been for it's entire existence.
throw in shit like recalling/installing new c-suites etc.
far more responsive/equal form of government than the clown show that is US "democracy"
And an individual can hold multiple shares. So some have more votes than others. That's not democratic in any way.
That's a lot harder than you make it sound. That dysfunction is the main executive pay relative to performance has massively inflated over the years: accountability to shareholders in matters of compensation is piss-poor.
With voting power weighted by the amount of money they have invested.
Kind of like the way the US actually works.
