For the common good and for the common defense; is a Promise we as citizenry must keep. Common defense does not provide an unequal security to American global corporate power as a privilege. Military used to invade and occupy any country, for the gain of just one sector of American society. When this is perceived in action, this should be considered a break away from our concept of a common defense for the common good.

The United States Post Office is under attack by corporate interests influencing goverment policies governing the USPS. The USPS is set up for financial failure on mutiple fronts. Some of the most destructive are a mandate to fund retirements of future workers that are not yet hired or born. Also a mandate to carry bulk mail and packages below costs for corporations. And refusal by governing bodies to allow the USPS to grow its business into identified profitable areas in information security. Politicians creating these mandates are catering to the financial interests of corporate carriers to reduce competition which will lead to an increase in prices for the services we all depend upon. Please help save this important American institution so providing information to others is affordable and impartial.

Adjustable Rate Mortgages: When the interest rates go up, there will be more households loosing their homes because their monthly mortgage payments skyrocket.

Time Warner sends $4.60 a month to MSG for providing the channel. They should not be allowed to keep this money. It belongs to consumers. Further, there was just a seven percent rate increase -- the second in a year. No one believes they are defending the rights of the consumer and trying to keep costs down. This is a dispute between two huge monopoly media companies and the consumer is stuck in the middle with no leverage. ----------------

Money in our political process has corrupted government. We have legalized bribery presently. Corporations and the very rich use their wealth to consolidate their power to the detriment of working Americans. All elections should be publicly financed. The Citizens United ruling by the Supreme Court has exacerbated this problem.

Americans should support this Constitutional Amendment. Please go to http://www.politicususa.com/en/bernie-sanders-citizens-united to learn more.

Taxpaying residents who are in process or lost their homes due to forclosure. Many of us applied for programs to save our homes and lost them anyway, because we were deemed not eligible for home mortgage bailout, loss mitigation, hardship bailout, deed in leiu of forclosure and short sale programs.

Democracy cannot flourish when corporations can doante freely to election campaigns. Congress must pass a law refuting this Supreme Court decision.

As we've seen the past few months, Fox News, CNN, and other news sources have done their best to alienate Ron Paul. Because he does not fit the status quo, all of these mainstream news sources have done their best to make him sound like a quack. He is treated unfairly compared to every other candidate in the GOP race. We need to let these people know that we will boycott them if they continue to show prejudice against him.

Elected officials should represent voters, not dollars. We need 100% publicly financed campaigns, with strict time limits. Under current laws, money has all the power: corporations and the super-rich rule the rest of us. There's no such thing as free speech in politics today: every single word has been bought and paid for by the special interests who pay the salaries of consultants who craft the messages. Politicians are not picked because they have ideas or integrity, but because they can "stay on message." We won't solve our larger problems until we fix this one.

Why should we pay these fees when we never have ? The industry made more than a billion dollars in 2009 from these unnecessary fees. It's pure profit for something we've had free forever. Delta is the big winner . More than half was Paid to delta!

Bank of America charges a $3 fee for ATM paper receipts. When you make a check deposit, they scan the check. You can opt for a receipt with the scanned image but will be charged $3 for the receipt. No receipt and you take your chances that the check is properly credited........When you check your BOA account online, you can view images of checks you wrote but not checks you deposited. All that is displayed are the words “deposit ticket” and a number that is the dollar amount of the check. Firstly, you feed checks directly into the ATM – no deposit tickets, no envelopes. Secondly, the check was scanned the moment it is fed into the ATM. If you request paper receipt with check image you can see scaled picture of the face of the check. The digital image is stored in the database and linked to your account. It is just not displayed to you online or on paper statements. …….Online, your account activity does not display any check image, only "deposit ticket" with a number, presumably the amount deposited and nothing else. ………If you need copies of deposited pay checks or to correct an error. BOA will charge you $3 to print each digital image they already have stored in your account. …………If you deposit 5 checks, that is a $15 fee. To charge 25 cents for paper and ink for paper receipts and copies is one thing but to charge $3 PER CHECK IMAGE is an outrage since BOA has set it up that they not display the digital images they already have online or on printed statements for any deposits in order to force to pay this outrageous fee for copies………….Enough is enough. Stop this practice now. Sign the petition.
