No equity holders get anything here, regardless if they had common stock or not
It's a good quote, but it is misapplied here.
Nothing is stopping you from investing in a company, or putting your money into a stock or other investment. If anything, over the years the club has become a lot less exclusive. When did Carlin say that? Think about how much more access any given person, at least in the United States, has to financial products.
