• Obama Just Gave Congress, Boehner and Biden a Raise
    Poor dears haven't had a raise since 2009. Now Biden, okay. But we can't agree to find ways to cut spending and the so-called "fiscal cliff" is looming large because everyone down there in Washington seems to be playing a game with our country, and Obama is rewarding these clowns with a raise? I got a measly $26/month in social security but Medicare cost was hiked $6/month. And these guys want to cut our benefits (that we paid for, by the way)!

  • Revoke Congressional Pay Raise
    What have they/you done to merit a raise? How many times has the regular employee heard: "We didn't make enough profit" or "Times are tough." or "We don't have the budget.". I've heard it in about a third of the 25 years I've been working. Time for Congress to hear it too!!

  • Unemployment insurance
    There are many American's who are falling off the Fiscal Cliff but those who are collecting Unemployment Insurance and still have not found a job are feeling this the hardest. Myself,personally, am wondering were my next check will be coming from. I am currently in school to better myself and am the part of my education that between classwork and my unpayed externship. Now I have added stress on how to support my family and pay for my classes. What are the other people who are on unemployment suppose to do?

  • Means test Social Security and Medicare
    Wealthy people do not need Social Security and Medicare! They did help fund it while working, so they deserve their money back plus 5% interest on their payments from the start. Most will have been paid off by their early 70's and both programs will save millions if not billions in the future.

  • Recall Congress If We Go Over the Cliff
    The US House of Representatives and the US Senate exist to serve the people of the United States. If our legislative branch allows our country to fall over the Fiscal Cliff, for any reason, then they have failed in their duty, and should be held accountable for that failure.

  • Give Social Security back
    All American citizens put into Social security. Yet it has been placed into the general fund. Which has depleted the funds. As well as Non-American citizens who are not contributing are allowed to steal are retirement.

  • Create a flat tax and model our government's size from it.
    If we can manage to get a flat federal tax across all the people of this great Nation and then model our government's size to that new income level we would finally manage and circumvent our debt and regain our sovereignty of our control over money.

  • Reform the credit rating system for small businesses.
    When banks use a computer to rate a small business, or even a consumer, on the basis of a numerical scoring system alone, they fail to consider the small business owner and his potentially positive benefit on the community. And although, it doesn't affect me directly, it does affect job creation, which affects all of us.

  • Help the 99ers!!!
    I'm one of the approximately 5.5 million long-term unemployed "99ers," who have exhausted all our unemployment benefits, had our lifelines cut off but, through no fault of our own, have been unable to get a job. We need—and deserve—financial assistance now—as for us, the recession never ended and unemployment is still very high.
