I believe you've misunderstood what happens when a person buys shares. They want to own part of a company in order to have the opportunity to experience capital growth / dividends from ownership in a company should that company make a profit.
No actually ElPerro....I think it is you that is misunderstands what happens...

The individual buys shares in the HOPE that the shares will rise in value...not only from a profit but from other events.All to often this is not the case.

I asked you about Bernie Madoof....and this was your answer...
There are already laws against what he did. He breached the conditions of the private arrangement he had made with investors. As I said before, that is what government is for - enforcing agreements between individuals who choose to enter into an agreement.
Well,the laws didn't stop him did they?...
The "shame" at QANTAS is the influence of unions. They lower employment and cause great harm those at the bottom of society.
Actually,if it wasn't for the management that run so many organisations there would be no need for unions would there?
