There are 3 classes of Alphabet Inc stock: A, B and C - all representing equal ownership % stakes.

• Class A shares = Regular voting rights. 1 vote each. Publicly/exchange traded.

• Class C shares = No voting rights. 0 votes each. Publicly/exchange traded.

• Class B shares = Super-voting rights. 10 votes each. Privately/non-exchange-traded.

The Class B shares are held only by company insiders. To my knowledge, there are 64 holders in total, though the large majority of them are owned by co-founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page. So despite owning about 9% of Alphabet shares between them, Sergey and Larry control over 50% of shareholder votes.

Although I think it's a good idea for the two of them to be able to steer the company as they see fit, it seems insane to me that they can't be outvoted by the other 90% of shareholders.

Is there any point in Class A shares having voting power at all? The only thing I can think of is that it allows Sergey and Larry to gauge the general opinion of shareholders as a whole and take it into account.

I tried to find out if class B stocks even have any price at all and the below is what it says.

"Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL), Class B shares, which are not publicly traded, do not have a publicly available stock price."

Does that mean they do have a private price or don't even have ANY price? And if there is a private price, where can I find it?
