Currently corporations are seen as legal entities on their own.Most of our laws are about subsidizing & protecting THEIR laws & rights not peoples.We have no real retirement plans that help us nor any reasonable right to be treated with dignity nor respect.We can be fired as soon as we get to retirement age for trumped up reasons with little to no recourse.We will age out without any real socialized medical option & the fruits of our labors will be underpaid & subsidized by our tax dollars due to no real laws to mandatorily have a living wage.We pay the corporations to underpay us.We need to not fund corporations who in turn stick us with all of their associated costs that are picked up in social entitlement programs from lack of a living wage.

Newsday has continually attacked teachers and the education system in a biased manner. On a daily basis hardworking educators are demoralized by its rhetoric.

It's time to value REAL health care and stop accepting that pharmaceutical companies are too big to fail. People are dying and the criminals are getting rich. Health for all Americans is what this petition is for. Take back the FDA and stop profiting off the suffering of American citizens.

Removing the power of the super rich to corrupt our government by unlimited campaign contributions.

The aim of this act is to require all food producers to drop colorful and misleading packaging in exchange for plain black and white wording and pictures on all of their products they sell as food. The only exemption from the above stated black and white packaging description is a photograph taken of the actual field the food is grown or raised in. This will provide a clear and precise picture of how a d where your food was grown or raised. The second part of the act has to do with the naming of food. The name shoudl reflect all of the ingredients instead of the current method of naming food that has been proven to be misleading. For example if you have eggs from an organic farm with no antibiotics used then you can call them eggs. However if you have eggs from a farm that uses antibiotics then you must call them the antibiotic name followed by egg. It is clear when you walk into a grocery store that there are many unhealthy foods being sold and they are being advertised in clever ways as healthy. If a company wants to sell food then they need to inform the public what they are selling. Misleading or direct misrepresentation of food like products has flooded the market. The costs from the businesses selling the fake food are rising health costs and increases in pollution as well as an unsustainable and unstable food source. The system has had multiple failures in regards to food safety while at the same time the genetic engineering of our food stock has created a situation where common diseases and pests will continue to pose an ever increasing threat until our system eventually fails. Thank you for your time, Christopher A. Oswald.

Unpaid Taxes by big banks using robo-signed documents have foreclosed properties fraudulently, impacting the County budget for police, fire and education services. Big banks must prove they own the note/mortgage according to AB 1602 and SB 1470, effective 1/1/13. Fraudulent foreclosures must be reported by the Recorder to the CA Attorney General.

$30 million in of out-of-state money poured into the Baldwin-Thompson Senate race, as corporate CEOs and wealthy individuals from across the country unleashed a torrent of money to influence what happened right here in Wisconsin. Now, we have an opportunity to take our democracy back, by building on the movement to reverse the Supreme Court's Citizens United decision that equated corporations with people and money with speech: Sign our petition to demand a statewide citizen's vote on the disastrous Citizens United ruling.

Yes, I've been affected. I feel I am the victim of a nasty employer and am paying for her disgruntled position. I'm a non paid care-giver. I also work part-time. I'm an underpaid worker, and get paid every two weeks...my take home pay goes to my bills and I barely have funds to get to work the following week. I have a set plan with AT&T, and somehow, my phone bills are escalated to 50 to 100 dollars over the original plan...I'm not much of a talker except with my family and my 90 year old mother and family whom are upset that they haven't been able to get in touch with me since my service has been interrupted. I've spent longer than an hour on the phone with AT&T, made arrangements with them to pay my bill. Gave them access to my account in which they claim they couldn't access...and then AT&T tried to claim I hadn't paid my bill since February...I have records and bank statements saying I've paid. AT&T are constantly tacking on fees and charging me for 'over'data usage and it's making it difficult to have them as a consumer. Since I've acquired their services 2 years ago, it's been nothing but constant calls to them without much satisfactory results, except more payments to them out of my pocket that I can't afford.

The most amazing thing just happened. The Obama Administration finally admitted the truth of what we’ve been saying all along: giant Wall Street banks have become too big to prosecute. In testimony on Wed, March 6, US Attorney General Eric Holder – the nation’s top cop – said, “I am concerned that the size of some of these institutions becomes so large that it does become difficult for us to prosecute them … I think that is a function of the fact that some of these institutions have become too large."[1] Exactly. Now we understand why the Obama Administration has failed to bring criminal charges against a single major Wall Street bank or executive for systemic fraud that brought down our economy. When the Attorney General openly admits that the most powerful members of society won't be prosecuted for even the most egregious of crimes, we are in deep trouble as a nation. Remember that we gave Wall Street bankers $700 billion in TARP bailouts and $2.5 trillion in investments, loans, and guarantees to shore up their business (and outrageous bonuses) [2] on the theory that letting them collapse would create a generation-long Depression. In return it seems fair to demand accountability for the actions that brought us to that point. Now it turns out the Administration never had any intention of seeking accountability. That’s why we’re demanding an immediate end to this unconscionable policy that puts the wishes of Wall Street 1%ers above the well-being of working families, most especially those hardest hit by the criminal actions of these very same people. The Campaign for a Fair Settlement has been pushing hard during the first hundred days of President Obama’s second term for real accountability for the Wall Street criminals who stole our homes, savings, and pensions and destroyed our economy. We think this is the only way he’ll secure his legacy as a champion of justice for the millions of homeowners, taxpayers and retirees harmed by Wall Street criminals. This revelation makes this all the more urgent. Stand up and demand Pres. Obama take immediate steps to break up the big banks and prosecute the criminals who used them to destroy our economy. It’s break up time. Now or never.

The victims of the bombing of the Murrah Bldg in OK City are being victimized again by the Oklahoma City Community Foundation. The Foundation withholds the money meant for the victims, diverted $4 million plus to other kinds of disaster relief. Nancy Anthony, president of the Foundation, pays herself $232,217 a year. The money should be distributed to the victims. Ken Feinberg volunteered pro bono to oversee distribution of the funds to the real bombing victims.
