Subject: Proxy process

The SEC needs to stop the infiltration of non-business proxy political statements.  Also, a public stock business exists to make a profit while conforming to all current applicable laws and regulations.  "Stakeholders" or non owners of stock or those with meaningless amounts of stock, have no role in the management of the business.  In the USA we have a political system and representative democracy to address social issues; the private sector businesses are not the place for advocacy.
