Are you aware of the 1919 Dodge vs Ford Motor Co case? Do you know what "shareholder primacy" is?

I've had a lot of discussions with people in my day to day life that know about Citizens United, Trickle Down Economics, or the undoing of the Fairness in Broadcasting doctrine, but next to nobody I've come across knows about the concept of shareholder primacy and what the 1919 Dodge v Ford Motor Co decision actually did to our economy. That's the Supreme Court decision that says the shareholders(investors) of any venture are more important than stakeholders (owner, employees, and customers) in any business period legally.
