Subject: RE: Disclosure Effectiveness Review

The SEC and its commissioners should continue to work on a rule requiring political disclosure from public companies, in the interests of their shareholders. Businesses should not be empowered to use backdoor political channels like nonprofits or associations to do their political bidding, and shareholders have a right to know how executives are using company resources for political purposes — especially if those purposes are against shareholders' interests.

Oh! Corporations are people, then why do they get to hide their political campaign financing when "WE THE PEOPLE" are by law required to report every dollar? Why do coporations get to pay by different rules than "WE THE PEOPLE?"
