I bank at Sun Trust and got this notice on my monthly statement: "EFFECTIVE JULY 23, 2012 THE $12.50 OVERDRAFT PROTECTION TRANSFER FEE WILL NO LONGER BE WAIVED WHEN A LIVE SOLID SAVINGS OR GET STARTED SAVINGS ACCOUNT IS USED AS THE SOURCE OF OVERDRAFT PROTECTION." This over draft protection simply transfers the necessary amount from a savings account to a checking account if the account gets overdrawn. We're calling for an end to ridiculious fees just because they can charge them. Why does it cost $12.50 to make the same kind of transfer internally I could make myself on a computer for free? $12.50 to move my money from one account to another?

If Big corporations are being considered as people, then they need to pay taxes just like people do - at least 15%!

Tell Idaho Public Utilities Commission to say no to the proposed rate increases by Idaho Power and Rocky Mountain Power.

How about avoiding vacationing in stand your ground states?

Justice Thomas and Scalia have been blatent in their acceptance of Koch brothers (and others) "speaking fees" and and other forms of monetary "gifts". Justice Thomas's wife gets regular monetary contributions from these groups. The Citizens United disastrous decision is a direct response to to the influence purchasing. The problem is that this subtle form of bribery is aginst the law and needs to be investigated.

A former WalMart executive described how Wal-Mart de Mexico had orchestrated a campaign of bribery to win market dominance. In its rush to build stores, he said, the company had paid bribes to obtain permits in virtually every corner of the country. WalMart's leaders shut down an investigation. Under fire from labor critics, worried about press leaks and facing a sagging stock price, Wal-Mart’s leaders recognized that the allegations could have devastating consequences, documents and interviews show.

The influence of big corporate money in politics is undermining our democracy. The solution we want to see is a constitutional amendment saying that money isn't speech and corporations aren't people. I'm especially concerned because my two kids will be going to public school soon, and tax breaks for the 1% are cutting off resources for our public schools. The only way that will ever really change is with campaign finance reform, starting with overturning Citizens United.

For anyone who travels either for work, vacation, or perhaps for a family emergency, the consistent gouging by the airline industry is more than disturbing. From charging $100 for a checked bag, to giving the airline attendants the ability to throw anyone off a flight for any perceived infraction. There are also the additional 'fees' tacked onto your ticket, such as charging extra if you want to sit next to your travel companion. But re-regulation isn't just for consumers; it's also for employees. When several thousand feet in the air, on top of adequate pay, it should be mandatory for domestic flights, that pilot(s) are prohibited from working excessive extended hours or that everyone in the control tower is trained and well-rested. Otherwise, it threatens the general safety of everyone. There’s also the matter of domestic carriers’ finances, particularly in relation to competition. How are the airlines carriers, often claiming bankruptcy or severe deficits, which is frequently used to weaken the few remaining employee benefits and restructure finances, are consistently provided multiple federal bail-outs? Yet they still have the unimpeded ability to gobble up other airlines, leaving consumers with even fewer choices. Given that our dismally-performing domestic carriers are being given the approval to take their methods to international carriers – such United forming a ‘partnership’ with Lufthansa, one can only assume that this dysfunctional business-model is becoming a global reality.

I'm concerned about the influence of big corporate money in politics and want to see a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United. My two kids will be going to public school, and I'm concerned about how tax breaks for the 1% are cutting off resources for our public schools, and that won't be solved unless we overturn Citizens United.

Big money has too much of an influence on our political process, and Citizens United made things much worse by allowing corporations to spend unlimited amounts of money to elect candidates. Personally, I have two kids in the public school system, and I'm concerned that because of the power of big corporations and tax breaks for the rich that our public schools are being starved of the resources they need.

One-third of homeowners are underwater with their mortgage. That's 22,500,000 Americans stuck in limbo. 22,500,000 Americans who could be boosting the economy, if they could. Don't they deserve to be made whole also?
