Corporate Corruption.

Shareholder activism is essential if we are to reverse the slow decline of our civilization.

Shareholders in large corporations must use their votes to force management to adopt more ethical practices.

Human rights abuses, slave labor, sweatshops, land-grabs, price hikes, management bonuses, political donations, kick-backs, collusion, nepotism.....

All these practices are rife within the corporations.

And shareholders turn a blind eye to them.

It is time for them to take responsibility for their wealth.

Or at least for the poverty of Third World nations.

Returning land to its rightful owners.

Paying workers a living wage.

Treating workers as human beings.

These things would stem the tide.

It's up to us.
