Street Pharm, do you know why the big companies don't just encourage/allow their members to attend the annual meetings? You clearly have the numbers to prevent this and yet no one shows up to vote.
It will also reflect poorly on the profession if the legislature decides they want to fix the problem. You are self governing but only at the pleasure of the government.
I do come from a profession where we see 60-70% attendance at annual meetings and a healthy mix of independents and corporations. We would likely see similar rules passed if only the independents show up.
