Political Factoid

Owning only 1% of the
shares of stock in a company,*
e.g., hedge-fund managers and
other activist investors who
control huge amounts of money,
... are able to manipulate**
large corporations for their
own benefit.
There seems to be something magic about "1%"
when it comes to wealth and greed.

 
* Typically, using someone else's money
** By demanding membership on the board of
directors
