Keep in mind that institutional investors like index funds hold share on behalf of indvidual persons.

  That's even worse, as this means somebody takes your money, and pay somebody to stooge for China without you knowing.

    Well you presumably know what is in your portfolio or can find out if social issues are that important.

Intel is chopped up into tens of millions of tiny slices, and everyone with any form of retirement savings has a handful through some sort of fund. Generally these people barely know they're shareholders, they receive none of the paperwork needed to vote at the AGM, they have a slice several orders of magnitude too small to exert any influence, and they have no way of identifying or contacting other shareholders to take any sort of coordinated action. Anyone who expects X to be done by shareholders is going to be disappointed.

  > Anyone who expects X to be done by shareholders is going to be disappointed. It's the general problem of public ownership of means of production. Public companies don't work. Stock market provides heck a lot of wrong incentives.
