Lobbyists appear to have a great influence on public officials. By releasing thier tax returns, the public will know who is receiving money from special interests.

Bank of America continues to foreclose on home people who are unemployed, have had significant financial loses. BAnonk of America ignores Government programs to help the poor like HAMP or HARP programs designed to help people stay in their homes. I had significant financial loss but BAnk of America denied me HAMP program re-financing.

I am petitioning Mr. Mark Thompson, Director-General and editor-in-chief of the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), appointed by the BBC Trust to review the delivery of BBC services. It is clear given the ill-considered blunders throughout much of the London 2012 Olympic Games and the absence of suitable and sustained representation of the African/Caribbean community that a management group needs to be assigned along with the BBC Direction Group and boards at the Group level.

Creditors purposely add small chargers to the credit bureaus to make things difficult to get further credit. A creditor should not be allowed to report anything under thousand dollars(1000). Many times small amounts have been paid,yet creditors report an unpaid amount. I have been personally affected by this tact and had to go through the process to check and call all creditors to be cleared.

The national no buy gas day held on April 15th had astounding results here in Alabama. Gas Went from 3.94 a Gallon all the way down to 2.92 a gallon. Within 2 days of April 15th it had dropped 5 cents and continued dropping daily for over a month. I think we should make NO GAS Purchase Day Every 15th of every month.

This petition addresses the need to fight corporate influence over both our elected and appointed officials, as well as over the decisions of the Supreme Court.

Corporations claim they deserve tax breaks because they create jobs. Make them sign a contract to do so and if they don't deliver, make them return the money.

We are asking members and supporters of the GAA. to petition that: “The GAA through PACT immediately cease and take no further legal actions against members of the Community & Handball Centre in St. Josephs Avenue, Dublin 3, and that the GAA / C.L.G. and PACT not interfere in any way with the running of the Centre”. The GAA is an amateur association of members, families, and communities with a stated objective to nurture communities and respect individuals. On 15th March 2012 RTE Prime Time (See YouTube - Croke Park Dispute) revealed that: 1. Pairc An Chrocaigh Teo (‘PACT’) the GAA’s company, in the weeks before Christmas, sued through the committee all members/families (over 400) of the Community & Handball Centre (the ‘Centre’) that the community and handballers built and maintained for 40 years. Many being sued are GAA members. A Croke Park executive acknowledged to RTE a reason Croke Park want to knock the Community Centre is so that they could turn lorries. 2. The Community & Handball Centre is a hugely important facility to the local community. 3. A Dublin City Council committee has condemned the GAA’s company PACT for suing the community. {Our Note: See YouTube - This may be the first time the GAA has been condemned by any local authority committee in the Republic and raises serious questions about GAA policy}. To sue people that have given a lifetime as GAA volunteers is a disgrace – to sue them just before Christmas signals something has gone seriously wrong with our association; who, if anyone, advised Croke Park GAA to do that. The GAA is not allowed to sue its members (GAA Rule 1.9) nor should the GAA use its company, PACT, to sue members. Croke Park GAA has enough property and wealth. Anyone that is part of a community group knows how destructive to people’s lives it becomes when a vested interest seeks to sue and destroy it. All the community request is that PACT enter a legal binding agreement to provide full replacement facilities if they want to knock our Centre. Despite promises Croke Park has not done this. GAA/PACT uses professional advisors. Reddy Charlton Solicitors, 12 Fitzwilliam Place, Dublin 2, is acting for PACT in the legal case against the Community & Handball Centre members.

President Obama, I have seen legislation that stopped the over growth of corporations like Standard oil ( Chevron) ; can this be re- established today?

Say NO to any casino in the Yampa Valley of Northwest Colorado

overturning the Supreme Court ruling of Jan 2010 (Citizens United versus FEC) that legalized bribery of government officials and, overnight, changed this country from a democracy to an oligarchy of big-money interest, corporate and private
