I read somewhere that the Heinz family still owns 4% of the stock, and that is worth a lot of money.

Maybe my information is incorrect, but your post is not inconsistent with my memory.

Who knows just how much equity the Heinz’ family has in those investment firms?

Fact is, Heinz/Kerry are filthy rich and they got their great wealth initially from a company that is now sending jobs overseas.

Are we supposed to not buy Hunts Ketchup instead?

I'm going with the alternative Ketchups forever now.

I don't know how they could. There are 318.3 million shares outstanding. The single largest shareholder is the chairman, Johnson, who has just under one million shares. That's less than one-third of one per cent of the stock.

Let's say that again: the single largest shareholder has less than 1/3 of 1% of the stock.

    Who knows just how much equity the Heinz’ family has in those investment firms?

And who knows what else those firms are invested in? Quick! Boycott everything! They might own Mattel stock! Or Ford! Don't let the Heinz cooties get on your money!

In order to be good Americans, we must see to it that all the people who work for H.J. Heinz become unemployed. This is how we will stop them from moving jobs to China!

By the way, Heinz makes soy sauce in China. Soy sauce. China. Get it? In China they sell soy sauce. It's kinda like selling ketchup here.
