Hello eRaider audience of concerned shareholders,
I am delighted for the opportunity to utilize this discussion board
resource
of eRaider's to discuss openly this proxy contest at the AAG. Thank
you.
America is synonomous with free speech. As investors, it is our most
important tool in our investor toolbox. But it doesn't work well with
the top
down. We've got to open the box and ratchet speech around a bolt or
two.
Investors have been waiting a long, long time to begin to make
inroads into
corporate boardrooms. Election to boards of directors should carbon
copy
political elections: There should be broad parameters, a sign-up
deadline,
and that's about it. If you want to run, run. It shouldn't be a Cirque
duSoleil
series of flaming hoops challengers have to delicately dive through
with no
end in sight.
Accountability's not so bad. Just do your job competently with
honesty and
integrity--and you'll be a-okay.A later clarification by Steve: "This
comment
was directed to the ALK employees; it does not describe
management"
Get involved shareholders! Employees--we're all shareholders now
through the advent of the 401(k). Use your rights--or lose your
pensions.
