average US corpo is just 1 vote 1 share, just right there it's more equal representation than the US government has been for it's entire existence.

throw in shit like recalling/installing new c-suites etc.

far more responsive/equal form of government than the clown show that is US "democracy"

And an individual can hold multiple shares. So some have more votes than others. That's not democratic in any way.
