  • President Obama no Grand Bargain Please!
    The President must not bargain away what people need and are entitled to, a safety net. The cuts previously proposed we're too severe and would have hurt the people who need the help the most, the middle class and the poor.

  • A Balanced Budget
    Congress has given themselves a pay raise and shortened their work year... They need to do their job and BALANCE the BUDGET. They need to do it in a way that does not hurt the middle class. Large corporations and people who make over $250,000 need to pay their fair share.

  • Ex Hostess Employees start their own company
    The CEO of Hostess tripled his own pay, faced bankruptcy rather than agree for the employees (their average salary being $43,000) to have well deserved benefits. Then he, with the help of the media, blamed the failed company on the the employees and the union. I'm calling for the ex Hostess employees and their union to start their own bakery and share equally in the profits.

  • Tax Loophole
    Tax fairness. Why do people who do not need to work but live very well on the money from their investments pay a tax rate of 15% while the working person pays 20% or 28% or more? Why is money taxed at a lower rate than labor? This was not the way the tax law used to be written. Closing this tax loophole would help reduce the deficit.

  • Drug Sentencing
    My nephew alone with other young black men have had their lives stop for long periords of time for the amount of time the court is giving young men for any type of drug they have, not use, have. The three strike law should go away. Prison has become a big business to take young men away from family, friends and life.

  • Democrats prove yourself.... change our economy
    We need an economy that works for our world and will sustain ourselves and future generations for centuries to come. We cannot depend on huge global corporations to work in the best interest of our planet when the goal is to make more and more money. We need to find a new way, where people earn fair wages doing work that helps themselves, their families, their communities and moves us forward to making the world a better place for all.

  • Save Social Security and Medicare
    These are not entitlements/gifts. We have paid for these each working year of our lives. Many of us don't have pensions that come with health care, or even pensions. Our employees dumped pensions long ago. How else will we survive without these paid for benefits? It will be a feat to even retain employment until 65/66/67 with age discrimination. Many of us could work until 70 or later, but what are the odds we would have our employment continued, or could find a job after 50? Please take up our cause.

  • Social Security &Medicare for seniors
    Social security &Medicare has been paid into for years by seniors and as they use it they still pay a monthly amount. It should be preserved,as people on this can not afford private insurance, and without SS what are the seniors to do, go look for a job again, no one will hire them, I have tried at 59
