A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

If we're talking about "larger corporations" then we're talking about publicly traded companies. The stockholder is YOU. Maybe you should spend a bit of time learning the basics of economics.

That's not how stocks work, in the UK or the US. You've demonstrated throughout this entire comment section that you don't understand what you're talking about with those "basic economics"

A stockholder is someone who buys stocks. Working for a company does not mean you are a stockholder. And you cannot buy stocks with all that freely forged food that's everywhere in the forests around all of us.

You're great at trolling, maybe leave the economics to everyone else tho.

Ahaha! Ok. Maybe you should stop skipping school for once.

I'm not in school, I graduated and now am working for a company. Which I'm not a stockholder in because that's not how it works. I AM a stockholder in other companies because I'm trying to profit off this broken fucked up system in any little way I can.

Maybe you should try buying stocks so you can see what the financial world looks like

You don't know what you're talking about. Confidently incorrect.

Great argument! Shows deep knowledge of the topic and humongous intellect.

No point in arguing with the ignorant. Have a good one mate.
