Just today 11/08/12 gasoline has rose .20 , why ? Can anyone tell us ? I believe there is price fixing and a huge monopoly at work here and the last 40 years.Any time big oil wants to get their share holder a couple billion dollars they raise the prices.This is not fair to the American public that is now just out of a ression.Our politicians will not protect us from this illegal business practice.The big oil lobby is too big in Washington. I will not vote in the next election unless this matter is addressed.

Donald Trump is initiating negative behavior and speech in regards to our country. If someone of his stature and following can Tweet "Start a Revolution and bring it to the White House" to millions of people at a time of national divide, that isn't someone we need to do business with. That is a statement that some people will take literally, and it will perpetuate violence. This isn't about Republican, Democrat, or Independent. This is strictly common sense. In this past election, we saw what our voices can accomplish, and we should continue to use them to bring about change.

One of the reasons there's a stalemate in government is that most of the Republican representatives have signed the Grover Norquist pledge to never, under any circumstances, ever raise taxes. Failure to do so will result in an effort to keep the offending candidate from getting on the ballot in the first place or, if serving, removed during the next election cycle. Grover Norquist wasn't elected to any public office, yet his tactics are holding the country hostage and threaten the entire economic system. It's time to disavow Grover Norquist and his pledge. Tell your elected representative you didn't vote for him to represent Grover Norquist. You voted for them to represent you and your community's interests.

The U.S. Supreme Courts decision called Citizens United has undermined the foundations of our democratic society in so much as special interests feel they can buy the government and representitives. It is essential that we end this threat to our country as quickly as is possible. I don't want my government up for sale. I don't want big money interests manifesting themselves in the form of Grover Norquist to control public officials. I would also ask that operations such as Grover Norquist be outlawed since it corrupts members of government.

We are tired of offensive, racist, misleading billboards!

Canada has repeatedly denied Fox News a license to broadcast in that country because they have truthfulness in journalism standards. In Canada a publicly licensed broadcaster may not broadcast any false or misleading news. Imagine that? The public owns the airwaves - what if we demanded the truth from ALL sides? Wouldn't that be a good starting point? Reagan abolished the truthfulness in the media. We used to believe the airwaves belonged to the people, now it belongs to corporations or Super Pacs. Let's make the liars accountable.

On January 21, 2010, with its ruling in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, the Supreme Court ruled that corporations are persons, entitled by the U.S. Constitution to buy elections and run our government.

Stop the barrage of political ads on TV and phones.

Reversing the law regarding the corporate and/or union moneys being used to support a particular political candidate or campaign.

The banking industry should not be allowed to make huge profits from student loans that borrowers are not allowed to discharge through hardships or bancrunpcy. They are charging high interest rates and raking in the money from student loan borrowers, collecting in some cases 400% of the original loan taken out, knowing that it is practically guaranteed to be paid as student loans are next to impossible to be forgiven. If student loans remain that difficult to discharge, all student loan borrowers PAST and PRESENTshould be allowed to have a reduction in their student loan interest rates to something reflective of a savings account rate, in the realm of 1% to 3%. My loan rate is 9% on a loan taken out in the early 1990's, one of which I am still paying on dispite having paid back more than twice what I borrowed, and with a future of paying back another two times more before the loan is paid. Please help.

This year's embattled election may be over, but the bitter, vicious attack ads used by campaigns and politicians won't go away. Once election cycles start up again, so will the ads. Isn't it time we asked for more? Shouldn't we demand intelligent, thoughtful discourse from those seeking elected leadership? Wouldn't it be more beneficial to get answers, not attacks?

The practice of large, wealthy corporations spending lavishly to influence Congressional legislation needs to be outlawed. It is clear that this practice promotes legislation that caters to special interests at the expense of the common good for American citizens. This is tantamount to "insider trading" on Wall Street.
