But it still perpetuates a class system whereby having money and influence yields (potentially) more money and influence. Main Street investors who will have no say at scale should not be excluded from participating in the wealth creation.

Certainly this is not a natural or easy problem, it requires a values analysis of our goals and principles. But if we truly want the market to evaluate a company, we must ultimately allow that market to change the fate of a company. The dual class shares prevent that, which I agree should be listed differently or restricted.

For example, if dual class shares were always subject to a confidence vote by the other shares once per 5 years, this is fine. Or you say that after 20 years the dual class must be dissolved. Allow the use for initial listing, but not forever. I think the author of the linked speech painted a very good picture of this.
