Tips make up a significant portion of the incomes of workers in counter-style restaurant/cafes. But Noah's Bagel's has a corporate policy against any tips or tip jars at all. Of course, this decision was made by the worst kind of human beings: highly paid managers who have never really thought about what it would mean to live on the incomes their retail workers make. Let's let them know what we think of this, and give them a wave of horrible, embarrassing press that will make Noah's change this contemptible policy.

Scott Thompson has been caught openly lying about his resume, claiming a degree he never had! If any of us 99% who play by the rules would have lied about something so fundamental, we would have been fired on the spot. Why should the rules be different for Scott Thompson?? He needs to be fired by the Yahoo Board - immediately!

We forget that statistics are people, and people that matter. • The U.S. Department of Labor produced a fact sheet on numerous events in the workplace. In July 2010 they concluded that over a 5 year span, from 2004–2008, there were an average of 564 work-related homicides that occurred each year in the United States of America. About 4 out of 5 homicide victims in 2008 were male. • The U.S. National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health states that homicide is the second highest cause of death on the job after motor vehicle accidents. That amounts to every 3 cases to 10,000 workers. Over 2 million workers are assaulted each year and 2, 000 people are murdered. • A 2007 national survey by Zogby International and Workplace Institute found that: • 37% of workers have experienced workplace bullying. • 62% of employees who received complaints about workplace bullying either ignored the problem or made it worse. • 64% of bullying targets eventually are pushed out of their jobs. • 73% of workplace bullies are supervisors. - In the spring of 2011, I was in a Federal Deposition with Verizon, and they admitted, under oath, that they receive over 104,000 EEO complaints a year. That comes out to 8,666 a month, and 2,000 a week, 400 a day. Why so many?

This petition is for the purpose of making clear to all concerned that corporations are not people and are not entitled to the rights of people as enumerated in the Constitution of the United States. We, the people, must energize our Congressional representatives and candidates, both federal and state, to put this issue to rest for all time.

In today's wireless high-tech society corporate greed for profit has overridden the concern for the health and welfare of the people. This petition is to demand the White House and Congress to require all corporations to be accountable for the new technologies that they implement. Three to four percent of the population are electrically/radio sensitive and have ill effects from high frequency devices. Doctors are finding more and more cases of cell phone related tumors. The World Health Organization has listed cell phones as a possible carcinogen and high frequency devices have been known to affect pacemakers, blood insulin devices and other medical devices.

Shortly before her death, Irene Goodman was booked into a HELOC loan at Citibank. Citibank claims Mrs. Goodman was overdrawn on her checking account approximately $4,500, yet they cannot (or will not) produce documentation to prove it. Mrs. Goodman's personal banker, who signed her for the loan, was also the Notary Public on the loan. When Irene Goodman passed, her daughter, Debra, inherited the house, and the debt, as the loan was secured to the house, creating financial hardship on her. Debra has taken many routes to resolve this matter, all without success, due in large part to the dismissive attitude of Citibank employees. Now she is dealing with the negative aftermath of a loan whose origin was questionable, at best. Please sign the petition, and let Michael O'Neill know that misdeeds by Citibank and its employees will not go unnoticed, or unpunished.

Senate Bill 1161, authored by Senator Padilla, threatens to weaken the many of the protections phone customers have under the California Public Utilities Commission. Without oversight, big telecommunications corporations can take advantage of consumers by hiking rates and decreasing quality and reliability of phone service.

From June 1, 2012 to June 7, 2012, an online election will take place and the American People will elect two Delegates from each of the 435 Congressional Districts. The online election will be run by the People, not the government, and therefore each voter must register to vote (http://www.the99declaration.org/voter_registration) even if already registered to vote in government-run elections. The Delegates who are elected will represent the People at a CONTINENTAL CONGRESS 2.0 in Philadelphia the week of July 4, 2012. Everyone who registers as a voter at http://www.the99declaration.org/voter_registration will have an "e-ballot" emailed to them when the polls open on June 1, 2012. During the week of July 4, 2012, the 878 elected delegates will meet in Philadelphia at CONTINENTAL CONGRESS 2.0 to ratify a Petition for Redress of Grievances, a legal document authorized by the Petition Clause of the U.S. Constitution. Once signed and ratified, the Petition will be read at a rally at Independence Hall the afternoon of July 4, 2012. A press conference, speakers including Harvard Law Professor Lawrence Lessig and author Catherine Crier, and live music are planned. The Petition for Redress of Grievances will then be served upon all 535 members of the 112th Congress, the nine members of the Supreme Court and the President of the United States. These politicians will be asked to publicly take AN ANTI-CORRUPTION PLEDGE to redress the grievances contained in the petition and demand an end to money corrupting our politics. Following the 2012 general election, the Delegates will give the 113th Congress, the President and the Supreme Court a reasonable time to redress the grievances listed in the ratified petition. If the grievances are not redressed to the satisfaction of the Delegates, they will reconvene in their respective districts and begin to organize a grassroots campaign to elect independent candidates to Congress in the mid-term election of 2014. The Petition will also create a legal basis for a lawsuit against the government to compel it to redress the grievances.

Banks and there relationship with their clients.

This is a petition to reinstate provisions 16 and 20 of the Glass Steagall Act and to support Federal Reserve chairman Paul A. Volcker's Volcker Rule and Barack Obama's push for it regarding financial regulatory reform.

Cable television has become a pain in the but, since the industry has labled cable as (intertainment ). My husband and I have been fighting with Comcast for about 2 years in regardes to the channels that we don't watch and still have to pay for. We believe that it is lutercrest to charge a person for service that we don't use. We are on a fixed income, but our cable bill gets higher and higher almost every month with additional fees that we don't agree with, however comcast has taken the postion that they are such a major company that they can increase their charges anytime they fill like it. I live in Gary IN, and because we live in Gary our rates are higher than any other city rates. We asking for the support of the public to help in getting Comcast regulated for fair practices in their billing and program packages. We are seniors and Comcast does'nt provide a package for seniors on a fixed income. The telephone companies did it Why not Comcast?

The country is angry about having the people's voice so minimized. Over 80% of the voters, crossing party lines, disagree with the Supreme Court's Citizens United Decision, its corrupting influence and preferential treatment of big business and the wealthy over ordinary people. Each state MUST send a message to Congress in support of a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United. New Jersey has begun this task through the introduction of SR 47 by Sen. Van Drew, now in committee, and AR 86, also in committee, introduced by Assemblyman Conaway. It is urgent to seize the national momentum NOW, to tell our NJ legislature to pass BOTH resolutions on to Congress and thereby say unequivocally that corporations are not people and money is not speech, hence a constitutional amendment is required.
