• Make Corporations Pay Their Fair Share!
    If Multi-national corporations stopped being allowed to hide their profits in off-shore banks and forced to pay more than the 1 or 2% they are currently paying in taxes. Our economy would be balanced.

  • Save America from central banking and the corporate elite.
    Thousands of years of history have proven what the central banks are doing is highly destructive to the common man, hugely beneficial to the banksters, and always ends catastrophically. Even in America's own history the great depression of the 1930's, and the economic collapse of 2008 and resulting recession, which is still ongoing, is more than ample evidence that what the central bank (Federal Reserve) is doing is always very destructive. But still, despite our constitution being written to prevent central bank destructive behavior, the banksters found a way to achieve passage of the Federal Reserve Act, buy off the people’s representatives in government and be allowed to steal from the common people for the benefit of the banks. But what is really galling, is that the people of America keep allowing themselves to be deceived into continuing to put the members of government stealing from them back into power. The only way to stop the insidious behavior of the banksters is to return to a 100% gold standard, abolish fractional reserve banking, return to 100% reserve commercial banking totally separate from investment banking, and an amendment to the constitution explicitly detailing these things. Pass a balanced budget amendment, and then pass an amendment outlawing campaign contributions to elected members of government, make all political campaigns taxpayer financed, and any member of government caught taking bribes to be punished with jail time and banned from government service for life. If you don't pay taxes, don't expect representation in government. Tax payer financed campaigns might strike some as wrong, but compare it to the system we now have where the 99% have virtually no representation in Washington and current representation is bought through campaign contributions and bribes by large corporations and special interests. Constitutional amendments to achieve these things are absolutely necessary to prevent them from ever being shirted or by passed. It's the nearest thing possible to being witten in stone and be irrefutabIe law. If the people of America will organize together in one force, these things can be done. And they must be done if we are to ever separate ourselves from the corrupt monied influence of the banksters and corporate elitists. This is the only way to return to a government of the people, by the people, for the people.

  • Hillary in '16 PAC (political action community)
    What Washington gridlock over the last several years has illustrated about the conflict that stalls our government is that it’s not about right vs. left, liberal vs. conservative; rather, the struggle lies between voters and the buyers of political influence. When push comes to shove, it’s usually buyers of political influence who come out on top (see the overwhelmingly passed Monsanto Protection Act, as well as President Obama’s consideration of cuts to Social Security as example of elite interests prevailing over voter consensus). What is at work to thwart our aim of self-governance is an influence gap between voters and a lobbyist/wealthy campaign donor syndicate. Through large campaign contributions coupled with lobbying efforts, they’ve wielded their considerable financial resources to disproportionately influence the decision making of elected officials. As voters, we take responsibility for this influence gap—because of apathy and our unwillingness to work together to hold elected officials accountable for selling their decision making to the highest bidders. By not demanding a limit to campaign contributions as a condition of electability, we’ve gradually allowed members of a small, exclusive establishment game the political process for their own advantage.

  • Ask Congress To Open Congressional Hearings Into USEPA Region 4's Handling of the CTS of Ashevill...
    $8,573,115.97 of taxpayer funds was used to conceal EPA Region 4's mistakes and alleged illegal activity. 50 people have been diagnosed with non-Hodgkins Lymphoma alone within 1 mile of CTS of Asheville Superfund Site. Neighbors abused, deceived and harmed by EPA Region 4 officials' response. Community Advisory Group has collected evidence to support federal charges to be filed against EPA Region 4 officials for creating a fake CERCLA site by submitting a falsified Hazardous Incident Report to the US Coast Guard National Response Center to expedite the creation of a CERCLA designation for the victims' property for a the contamination emanating from a preexisting the CTS of Asheville CERCLA site. EPA Region 4 has failed to protect human health and the environment in an effort to save careers and shield the agency from the embarrassing attention that would come from the original mismanagement. Call Congressman Meadows, Congressman McHenry, Senator Burr and Senator Hagan today and ask for the Congressional Investigations to hold the agency accountable and protect other communities from this type of systematic and systemic abuse.

  • Help Big Apple Meat Market
    The Big Apple Meat Market recently reopened in a much smaller space. The vacant site of the old Project FIND Center would perfectly serve the needs of the community and give us back an affordable market with a large space.

  • Vanguard: Vote To Split JPMorgan Chair/CEO
    We are all impacted by the illegal activities of the "too large to fail/jail banks," such as those of JPMorgan. In February, a group of JPMorgan shareholders filed a resolution to divide the chairman and chief executive posts, but the board is lobbying against it. This is one way to provide some additional oversight. Vanguard and Blackrock, the top shareholders, have decided the outcome of shareholder votes in the past 82.2% of the time.

  • No Walmart in Montgomery County!
    Walmart and a real estate developer are pressuring elected officials to rush a rezoning plan through the Montgomery County Council. Councilman Craig Rice is pushing for the county to rush its normal rezoning. He says the community will be hurt if the county council doesn't push the proposal through. In fact, small businesses and Montgomery County workers will be hurt if Walmart comes to Aspen Hill. A new store means big profits for Walmart and big headaches for Montgomery County. It means more poverty-wage jobs. And it means less business for small businesses.

  • We The People, Not We The Corporation.
    Our country has suffered catastrophic economic and environmental devastation as a result of the ensuing imbalance of political and economic power over the power of the people. This power has been granted to corporate entities by affording them constitutional rights designed for human beings. I am starting my journey to Deny corporate personhood at the city level in Vancouver Washington to pass a resolution to Deny corporations human rights while giving corporations privileges that we the people grant them.
