TAX ON OFF-SHORED ILL GOTTEN GAINSNearly forty three trillion dollars of US assets have been deposited in Caribbean banking havens, much of t money held in so called estate and gift planning trusts. On much of this money, income tax has never been paid to our US Treasury, while the beneficiaries consume unimaginable amounts of Federal Government services, both personally and commercially. While advocates for the mega-rich continue to spin the alleged fiscal cliff as an event that threatens us as badly as Dan Quayle's asteroids or the Mayan end of the world, and other fifth columnists such as 'No Labels" try to intimidate and trick moderates and independnts into 'bipartisan' support for a Grand Deal that stnds only to benefit the wealthy and their bought and paid for advocates adn politicians, the rest of us face yet another challenge to our ability to be happy, prosper, and enjoy any of the goods one may win in the US and to have even a minimally decent lifestyle. So why not tax this Ill Gotten Gain at a fair rate? Even a ten percent flat amnesty penalty on it allowing the net money to be on-shored agian would pretty much pay off the deficit?3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by John Hayes

Exchange eating for McDonalds ChristmasMcDonald's is twisting the arms of franchisees to be open Christmas day. I suggest a movement to call your local franchise and tell then you will eat there during the holidays only if they will close Christmas day (and eat there more if they also close early Christmas Eve). Not a religious matter for me. A matter of employees having the ability to chose what meets their needs.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jay Jaeger

Prosecute Walmart Under the RICO StatuteWalmart intentionally and purposefully underpays their employees, then runs classes on how they can apply for benefits reserved for those living in poverty. Walmart is using taxpayer money to fund healthcare for their employees. In effect, Walmart is stealing from the American public, and holding their employees hostage. This makes them eligible for prosecution under RICO- the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Noah Kitty
