| Message | We're concerned that stockholders are being denied the leadership and business sense that CEOs and management provide. While we fully support DWCs, mandating how a business should run, instead of merely encouraging how it should be run, is well outside government's purview. |

| Random fact: The people in your nation don't like inactive parties. When you often abstain from voting for a bill, they will dislike your party and your visibility to the electorate will decrease significantly. Low visibility will means you are likely to lose seats. So keep in mind: voting Yes or No is always better than Abstaining. |
