That actually be kinda funny if collectively they ended up with a controlling set of shares. Hate to even think how much that would cost.

Crowd funding would be possible

I don't know. That would be an unprecedented scale that may be in the hundreds of billions to muster up enough for a 51% stake in Alphabet. Assuming that much of stock is even in circulation. Be an ambitious project but I don't think even collectively we have that much in the piggy bank.

What of each person buys a single share.

I'm no stock person, but if I read it correctly, Alphabet has about 700 million shares in circulation. And that I don't think includes whatever the main share holders have. I could be wrong. But even if not, even if every man, woman, and child bought a single share, you still wouldn't even have half of what's in circulation.

I wish it were feasible. Believe me. But what I wish more is that some of the billionaires that consider themselves pro-American patriots would start investing in cultural institutions like movies, alternative social media tech, video games, and cleaning out the colleges of these pro communist nutjobs.

One of the biggest and most important battlefields right now is on the cultural front. And Commifornia almost has a monopoly on it.
