You "put money into [your] retirement funds so [you] can have money to retire" -- but the passivity of fund managers is costing you a big chunk of that money. It is costing you in the form of insane and unchecked compensation packages for top executives and it is costing you in the form of the asinine and short-sighted political pursuits of the CoC, bankrolled by companies you own.

It is not "political" to ask fund managers to take a more active role in restraining the behavior of the companies you own -- specifically, in forcing them to stop spending your money on things that don't help you and for the most part actively harm you.
