You need to buy a few more shares for that to be reality. Consumer shares are not controlling shares and we "poors" will never have any controlling anything when it comes to capital.

    Do you understand the volume of us "poors" when it comes to our collective purchasing power? We are indeed part of the problem.

    Edit to add I am not talking about end consumer purchasing. I'm talking about large block institutional purchasing done on our behalf.

    In Canada that can be through my RPP, my RRSP or the CPP or any other pension that may be available through my work.

    Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. That was soooooo funny. Its almost like you think you have some sort of collective economic power in the stock market being a proletariat. The only power you have is one of class consciousness, and you seem to have none.
