Most of the time, when someone is buying stock in a company, they are not buying the stock from the company, they are buying it from someone else who had the stock, and that person bought it from someone else, and that person from someone else, and you can trace that all the way back to some early time when the first buyer bought the stock from the company rather than from another individual. That first purchase was the only time the company actually got capital from the sale of that stock.
The company only gets capital when it issues stock, not when that stock gets traded around later. Those later transactions have no effect at all on the company's capital
You can lead a horse to water. But you can't make him get down on one knee and do an Al Jolson impression!
