Sure, it's right and it makes perfect sense. The Hilton family started their hotels with their own money, so it would be natural and right that they own the most shares in it. Think of it this way...if you started a business, wouldn't you want to have the controlling interest in it? It wouldn't make any sense to start, and run, a business where the shareholders own more shares than you do (and then you wouldn't have any control of your own business...THEY would.) When you risk your own money to start and run a business, it should be YOU who has the controlling interest and continues to run it the way you see fit, not the other way around.
