• In The Words of a Great Republican~Theodore Roosevelt
    WE must demand that Congress, despite Republican Stone-Walling in Favor of Special Interests, hold Corporations accountable, placing them under the light of closer scrutiny and increased regulation, forcing them to, at least, pay their fare share for the vast profits they have reaped and continue to reap.

  • Eliminate stock options as part of corporate manager compensation
    Issuing stock options as a major part of management compensation has led to three decades of short-term management approaches focused on the daily value of those options. This has led, in no small part, to the economic distress America is currently in. Banning stock options as compensation would help return a management style focused on long term profitability through growth as opposed to the devastating cost cutting which is the main focus today.

  • State Legal aid to municipalities
    Walmart forced Mount Pleasant council to approve a Walmart grocery store by threatening legal action Mount Pleasant could not afford to fight. There are 5 grocery stores with in a mile. Now Milwaukee based Sentry is laying off 71 workers. Across the state, multinational corporations are using bulling tactics like this. We need to make our Representatives represent us against multinational corporations who override Municipality's decisions by threat of costly legal action.

    HSBC got a pass for Drug Crimes and Money Laundering of Drug Cartel money. The Government claims that too much damage would be done if they were to be shut down. WE'VE HEARD THIS LAME EXCUSE TOO MANY TIMES! It doesn't work anymore! And HSBC just happened to get caught. The others are just as guilty.

  • Gun Control
    The way to stop gun violence and reign in the NRA is to go after corporate interests. Therefore, I say refuse to shop at any store that sells guns. If you don't buy other stuff at Wal-Mart because they also sell guns, they will stop selling guns.

  • Put a cap on salary that businesses can write off as a business expense
    There is a lopsided salary scale with corporations and businesses offering outrageous salaries. THey are able to do this in part because the remuneration is an allowable business expense. This petition caps the business expense. It has a secondary benefit of placing more pressure on keeping minimum wage in line with increases in cost of living.

  • State legal aid to municipalities
    Walmart is forcing itself on Mt Pleasant by threat of legal action. There are 5 grocery stores in one mile. Now Sentry is closing, laying off 71 workers. Mt Pleasant council did not want another grocery store but was bullied by Walmart into allowing another Walmart grocery store. Because Mt pleasant can not compete with the legal resources of Walmart, the State should step in with assistance.
