Buying Exxon stock seems like such an obvious conclusion to you and I, but this bozo wants to get "Beyond Capitalism" (I think 'Lunacy' comes after you leave Capitalism).
It is odd. A stock is an instrument buy which one secures the rights to a company’s future profits. How could this escape a “professor of political economy”?
as I was thinking about your comment I was wondering what the stock market would look like if investors had to worry about a government that monitored profits and confiscated amounts higher than certain "acceptable" percentages?
