Percentage of stockholders

[Carrol Cox]

The question as phrased is irrelevant. Because of various retirement
plans, etc. huge numbers own _very small_ amounts of stock. It is
utterly misleading to consider them stockholders in any political or
social sense. Their ownership is trivial, and they earn their living as
workers, not capitalists or even petty producers.
