I have a questions about the classification and sale of junk-mortgage securitized bonds sold in the period prior to the Great Recession. Did the bond-rating agencies commit securities fraud by wrongly classifying these bonds as AAA? Same question about the banks and brokers who knowingly sold these bonds as AAA when they knew they were misrepresenting them? Isn’t that securities fraud? If so why haven’t they been prosecuted?

The petition is about the fact that Global Corporations like Sharp pay Mexican workers about a dollar an hour, $50.00 a weeks wages when it costs $35.00 just for food. This is immoral and must be stopped. In the US it's about the same. Service jobs are about $9.50 an hour when it costs about $15.00 an hour just to survive. This evil and wrong.

The Glass Steagall Act separated investment banks from commercial banks so that investors and speculators could not risk people's deposits with bad investments and risky deals.

Our daughter Brittani was killed in a tragic and brutal car accident three days before her twenty-third birthday—just a week before her college graduation. Brittani had dedicated her life to serving people and making people's lives better. She had her whole life ahead of her. When Brittani died, she still had student loans to pay off, and for more than three years Citibank demanded repayment from our family. While we grieved, Citibank continued to demand payment, and we struggled to pay these bills monthly. Our family is lucky. After more than three years of begging and pleading with Citibank, we started an online petition. With the help of our friends, MoveOn, and so many others, our petition spread fast. And once Citibank started to feel public pressure, they agreed to forgive Brittani's student debt. But we're not the only ones who have had this experience with Citibank and other big banks. Citibank received a taxpayer bailout, while most families get no help when they need it most. No one should have to go through think kind of ordeal. Citibank should institute a policy of student loan forgiveness when a student dies and stop going after family members.

IF MITT ROMNEY WINS THE KOCH BROTHERS WILL RUN THIS COUNTRY< THE BROTHERS ARE FOR THE RICH ONLY NOT FOR MIDDLE CLASS AND BELOW. VOTE FOR PRESIDENT OBAMA FOR EQUALITY.

My petition is supporting President Barack Obama in his re-election for President of the United States because his election brought about som much needed "Diversity." Diversity versus Racism: A Challenge to Mankind, my new book will tell you why and how destiny has intervened in the Life of "America." I know it may sound weird but I believe President Obama is destined to solve America's economic woes and financial crisis. So before you vote, give this serious consideration.

Corporate and super-pac campaign contributions are perverting what's left of our democracy. The Citizens United decision by the Supreme Court makes corporations equivalent to persons. If that is the case, can't we legally restrict each "citizen" to one vote? Let's limit all citizens to contributions of no more than $100 for any campaign. I can afford to put my $100 up against David Koch's $100 any day. This will level the playing field and will end the practice of the rich being more "people" than the rest of us.

This petition is about reversing the media consolidation by implementing limitations on the number of TV, radio, and print news mediums a person or corporation can control in a local media market.

A petition to the moderator of the presidential debate to ask each candidate to take a stand on the reinstatement of the Glass-Steagall Act, aka, the Banking Act of 1933 that limited commercial bank securities activities and affiliations between commercial banks and securities firms.

The American public needs to realize that they have the most power to change this country by controlling where they spend their money. If people would join forces and only buy from responsible (in every way) companies / corporations, the public could run corpoartions out of the country that didn't pay their fair share of taxes, control the government by purchasing them, weren't environmentally responsible and participated in off shoring our jobs.

The President has asked for them, the media have asked for them, and fellow Republicans have asked for them. Still, Mitt Romney has refused to fully release his tax returns like every other candidate has done for decades. Maybe he'll do it if the people ask. Help us get enough signatures that he can't ignore us.

To avoid disclosure, billionaires are laundering their campaign donations through so-called 'social welfare' nonprofits (in IRS language, 501c4's). These organizations are tax-exempt and don't have to disclose the names of donors, supposedly because they are charitable, but in reality many of them exist for the purpose of electioneering. That means we the taxpayers are giving a free ride to the wealthy corporations and individuals who are buying our government, while we can't even find out who they are. The IRS could stop this practice by applying strict rules, but they are dragging their feet, saying they 'plan to look at' the problem sometime. We need transparency NOW.
