If you could invest in any publicly traded company with $1, would you?

Theoretically, if we were to remove the financial barriers to entry into the stock market, such that you were able to invest as little as 1 dollar and own part of a publicly traded company, would you? Sure, you would make returns on your investment, but since it was only a dollar, you'd be really lucky to make 30cents. What I'm trying to gauge here is the level of emotional / ideological / political attachment you might garner from investing in a publicly traded company. I see the capital markets to be as much an opinion place as they are a market place. We vote with our dollars - we tell the world what we deem to be important with our investments. If provided with the opportunity, would you voice your opinion?
