So, you think the small investor in a multinational has some actual
say in how the company is run and the ethics involved? It's only
recently that CEO pay has been on the table as needing non-binding
approval of the stockholders!

It doesn't really matter how much or how little say you have. If the
company is doing well, you share in the gains just like all of the
other owners. If it's not doing well you vote with your telephone and
sell the stock. Essentially you just fired the management.

Doing well only refers to one aspect of a corporation's performance,
typically. The problem is that corporations have become the actual
government in many countries, such as this one, and corporate actions
are destroying the middle class.

Businesses/corporations have always run the world. You really do need to
brush up on some history.
