Major shareholders should be at the top. Execs are usually just the goons getting their hands dirty. They’re explicitly disposable, intended to soak up liability then go away. It’s the major shareholders they answer to, and these are the real agenda setters.

Granted, sometimes you have to go through a few goons to get to the actual boss, and it at least sends a message, but there are always more goons ready for dirty work if the price is right. The major shareholders, however, are publicly known and limited in number (like one-page-of-names limited).

They’re the ones treating the global economy and the health of our planet like a game of monopoly. Once people realize the simplicity of the task, you will start seeing actual players removed from the board, and reform will quickly follow.
