    Because in a democracy that owner has not actually many votes. Unlike all the employees who -given results in Kentucky- probably majorily voted for Trump and are now losing their jobs because of it.

        Fair. While companies like Toyota are still family companies. Every asset that America had has been sold for profit. It’s very fitting. Like a formerly prosperous family, our country and its independence has been pawned off for a quick buck to ensure the line continues to go up. As long as we can pretend we still have prestige, we won’t know the difference, right?
