Dear Governor, the majority of senior citizens in New Jersey have worked hard all their lives and paid their just due taxes,I realize that the economy is not what it should be but senior citizens over 65 years old need a tax break. many eat dog and cat food to make ends meet. there are 39 million of us and we need help

For the past few years, Rep. Darryl Issa has waged a campaign against the US Postal Service, in order to destroy it in favor of mail delivery by the much less efficient (and far more expensive) FedEx. This isn't about "email is the Next Big Thing so we don't need the Post Office". (Email can't send packages, for one thing). Behind the scenes, Rep. Issa has been forcing the USPS to pre-fund its members' retirements AND sick pay, up to 15 years into the future! No other company or corporation is forced to operate under these circumstances, and the American People want its Postal Service with its nationwide network of facilities to continue, and DO NOT WANT the far more expensive AND inefficient FedEx (or any other private postal service) to replace it!

If people recieved a living wage taxpayers would not have to subsidize people working for low wages. Companies make large profits because we have to support their workers with food stamps, low income housing,medical and other benefits even though these people are working full time. It would also increase the tax base for the state allowing for better inferstructure, education and police and firemen which all member of the state could benefit from.

Unemployment Insurance benefits being taken from us because he only cares about the upper one percent and his platform is Classic Liberalism. Survival of the fittest or wealthiest among us, and no concern for; We The People! Please help us who are applying daily for jobs and want to work and are not working through no fault of our own.

We need increase in revenue and the FICA limit of 100,000 is too low I say raise it to to the tax increase limit of 400,000! This Would fund it forever!!

As a taxpayer in the State of Illinois, I find it incredibly distrurbing that I am being "double taxed" on use of major highways that were suppossed to be for "temporary" fund replenishment. In a state that has seen its income tax doubled, its tollway fares doubled, the sales tax increased and is now rated one of the worst in the nation for financial stability among other worsts, it is time for the government to stop double taxing it's citizens and start being more finacnially responsible with the money they are already collecting.

Small "Mom and Pop" businesses have been driven out of business by an unfair tax code that unfairly benefits huge conglomerates. let's make the American economy great again by getting those that make 90% of the money to pay 90% of the taxes. Reinstitute a progressive tax that will allow small enterpreneurs to compete with the conglomerates by having lower overhead.

I just recently relocated from Washington state to Alabama an was shock to learn that they have tax on food. This is something we need everyday an it should not be taxed.

To Move-On Members, and anyone else this may concern, I will make this as brief as possible, but give you enough information that I pray you can help me with. I am currently attending Technical Education Center of Osceola County, Florida for web programming services. The education that I am receiving is so that I can find stability in this turbulent economy. I have a bachelor’s of science in business management, but that was not providing me with a vocation where I could take care of myself (not to mention my family which is another story) The purpose of this message is to inform you that anyone that has ever had the opportunity to attend school for bettering him/herself knows it is not easy, and the possibility of becoming homeless due to unforeseen circumstances makes said stress unbearable. I lost my father-in-law recently and my estranged wife had to go home. I was invited, but could not afford to due to money and the time I would be out of class. Well, I am very close to my in-laws even though my spouse and I are estranged. She told me that she wanted to go home to represent us, and although I could not afford it, I sent her. It was death and family should be there when a loved one has died. As a result of this, I am now facing eviction. I thought I would be able to find help via the services that provide help, but was told that it would be difficult to help me due to the money I receive to go to school (which is like my pay check to take care of little things needed for school) was not valid enough to receive help. How can I be expected to "keep it together" while trying to do my best to better myself (and possibly be reunited with my spouse) if I am evicted for having a death in my family, and going to school, thus not making a lot of money at the time. I need your help to avoid eviction. I am aware that sometimes we have to jump through hoops (unnecessarily) to get what we need, but this is too much as I am certain that anyone else would have made the same decision I did. Oh, and by the way, I am a USN veteran which is how I receive money to go to school. It's a shame about how we as Americans treat people today that need help until something dire has happened then, questions are raised about why no one did anything, and I am just reaching out to anyone that I can to avoid being yet another statistic that got help too late. Hope you will help me soon, Norward Henry

The minimum wage should be a living wage. San Francisco has raised the minimum wage to eleven dollars an hour. Let us raise the minimum wage across America to ten dollars an hour.

We need adequate and sustainable revenues in Delaware and these should come from fair taxes. Currently our state's personal income tax has a top marginal tax bracket of $60,000+. We should make our income tax more progressive by adding marginal tax brackets for incomes above $60,000 so that wealthy Delawareans pay a higher tax rate than middle-class Delawareans.

Gov Heinemann wants to do away witih personal and corporate income taxes and put sales taxes on previously exempted essential items such as medication and food.
