The collective action issue in capitalism:
collective action by workers: bad, disrupts labour markets, undermines competitive pricing of labour.
collective action by investors, via stock markets & shareholding: vital to the workings of capitalism & must be protected & fostered at ever step.
It doesn't have to be this way, but it is.
