Speaking of market distortions, narcissist, professor, self appointed MENSA graduate, etc. - how many people actually vote on the remuneration package in most large companies?

I guarantee most real owners of the shares don't vote in the affirmative or more accurately, wouldn't vote yes for the remuneration packages if they had the chance! Strangely, the little cartel looks after itself...
