Public ownership of American industry
Henry J. Taylor argues that ownership of major U S corporations is widespread among average citizens. He cites AT&T GM GE United States Steel RCA Pennsy Consolidated Edison Transamerica and others, noting no individual holds more than 1–6 percent and that over 500000 new shareholders join yearly, challenging the myth that stock ownership is for the few. Workers often own shares via company plans, with payroll-based stock value relationships highlighted.
