I read the papers and watch the news broadcasts and various programs on investments. I watch as my future goes up and down, mostly down due to fraud and unbelievably outrageous expenditures of the corporations my little, but important to me, retirement savings go to. I appreciate the fact that you are going to review proxy rules and, hopefully, will protect investors in the future. Charles Goins
