  • CREDIT AGENCYS AND EMPLOYERS
    MANY PEOPLE ARE BEING DENIED EMPLOYMENT AND HOUSING BECAUSE OF THEIR CREDIT SCORES. THESE TWO THINGS ARE A HUMAN RIGHTS ISSUE. PEOPLE NEED JOBS TO BE ABLE TO PAY THEIR BILLS, HAVE A PLACE TO LIVE. PEOPLE WITH JOBS ARE TAX PAYERS WHICH IN TURN HELP THE ECONOMY. CREDIT WORTHNESS SHOULD NOT PLAY ANY PART IN ANY HUMAN BEINGS BASIC NEEDS. THE GOVERNMENT NEED TO STOP CREDIT AGENCYS AND EMPLOYERS FROM USING THIS KIND OF DISCRIMINATORY ACTS AGAINST PEOPLE IN AMERICA.

  • Reality Check
    Everyone I know is exhausted with the politicking in Washington. The millionaires in Congress have no idea what real life is for a majority of Americans. They need a reality check.

  • Taxing all "Tax Haven" money.
    Ten trillion dollars or more of American corporate and private assets is estimated to be untaxed in the tax havens of the world. We are all therefore required to pay more in taxes as a result. The tens of billions of dollars of annual revenue would help the country avoid economic collapse and recirculate the trillions of dollars in domestic banking and investment.

  • 4% 04 greater savings rates
    My petition targets the disintegration of interest rates, as it affects the savings of the middle class and seniors who are unable to receive any real income on their savings for retirement. My husband and I are at the point where we were going to sell our real estate and invest our monies for retirement and 1) the real estate market has lost at least 30-40% of its value and 2) there is no income to speak of in this market.

  • Lower property taxes for seniors.
    Property taxes in California are very high even though property value is around one third of what it was. This affects seniors the most being in a fixed income. Also the interest on unpaid taxes is 10% a month which is outrageous. We have not been able to pay our taxes and with 10% interest adding every month it makes it almost impossible to be able to catch up and we only have one more year before we loose our house.
