Pish. Ownership of a few thousand dollars worth of this or that bit of paper is utterly irrelevant to one's personal politics. Pure useless symbolism. Just what is the effect of one individual -- even one worth m few million -- owning this or that piece of Wackenhut or any other company. Working as a higher executive of Wackenhut would be something else, a share is a share is a share in capitalism. Same thing if you deposit your money in Bank A or Bank N.
How did this silly discussion get started anyhow?
