Obama's Pledge to Not Micromanage

This article mentions President Barack Obama's recent vow to not micromanage private sector companies in which the federal government has shares, but to allow them to act by their own volition. He claims to only have say as any other shareholder would, and ensure that taxpayer dollars aren't going to go to waste. 

This seems pretty reasonable, and hope he follows what he says. A true pragmatist in my opinion.
