When you invest in an ETF or mutual fund, you’re basically handing your power in decision making to these large institutions.
There’s a reason companies like BP and Exxon don’t divert to renewables, and one of those reasons is because institutions like these own a majority share in these companies, and get to make the decisions to drill as much as possible for that short term revenue.
It makes sense under a capitalist society because if some old fart has their money tied up into a retirement plan, it’s in their institution’s best interest to appease them. They don’t care about long term profits because they’ll be dead before they can reap the benefits! And if that’s the case they’ll take their money elsewhere.
This very clear representation of the dictatorship of finance capital, most if not all publicly traded companies are structured this way.
These jokers love to pat themselves on the back saying they’re so brave and take risk with stocks, but then they throw temper tantrums like when they don’t get their “guaranteed returns”
Hilarious to even try this. Fiduciary responsibility demands extracting every single cent from every drop of blood or you lose your job as CEO, but we get to sue now if they do it in a way that’s too icky- buddy wait’ll you hear about how all labour is exploitation

Orphan crushing machine sued by orphan crushing machine shareholders for not crushing enough orphans
They are suing because UHC didn’t tell them they weren’t going to make as much money. Seems the bean counters doubted the power of
My brother in Christ the aggressive anti-consumer tactics is why there is backlash.
Also holy shit can we just stop and think about how fucked up you’d have to be to be one of these shareholders?
What else can you say except death to amerikkka, death to capitalism, and death to the shareholders?
1000 more
's wouldn’t be enough to cleanse this landBrother, do we have to Luigi everyone?
Shareholders say yes
What do you think
