It’s called Reductio ad absurdum. If your logic is absurd about people voting in a democracy, then you’d have to provide some rationale why it’s not absurd when applied to voting in economic systems. There are good arguments against this.
But your only point was that it would be utter chaos, like it was a given. And that is the same argument authoritarians, monarchists, dictators and plutocrats have been making forever - and are making right now. Right now they are spreading this propaganda around, everywhere. And you picked it up and used it. And that is how they maintain power. That is the actual mechanism of thought control in western “democracies”.

My argument would be people don’t own the companies.
They do – from a certain point of view – own their countries.
So while they have no right to have a say in the operation of the companies, they do have a right to have a say in the operation of their countries.
