4. good folks?
People should know what they're investing in. If they do, then they're complicit in any electoral fraud the company in question might engage in. If they don't, it's their own fault if they lose.

Instead of buying then selling, owning enough shares could mean having some influence on the company, having something to hold over their heads. We'd never be able to have a controlling share by ANY means, but could maybe exert some influence. Still, I'd prefer a way to knock them out entirely. That said, the valuation is huge and shares are $50 each (hey, that's about the price of a barrel of black gold) .
