Well, the shareholders may live in a different area or country than the one in which the company operates. If a corporation is largely owned by American investors, but does its production largely in a developing nation (relying on their infrastructure to operate), then I think it's fair to say that both the developing country and the US should both get a slice of the pie: 1 for providing the infrastructure and labor market, and the other for providing the comforts of a developed country to shareholders.
