• CREATE JOBS NOW!
    Enough is enough—we can’t wait any longer. Three years after Wall Street wrecked our economy, 25 million people are still unable to find full-time work and the scandalous gap between the 1% and the 99% continues to grow. Congress promised to bring jobs, but where are they?

  • Tell Congress To Fix our Credit Reports!
    The average American is limited as a result of 2 areas of credit reporting that is in essence immoral, unethical, and limits the average American from attaining the American dream! I personally have been affected by 2 areas on my credit report. 1) medical bills, 2) Student loans. While I have committed my professional life to making a difference in education, I have had to lean on student loans in order to become an educator. Congress/The President, could stimulate the economy immediately if they were to find it unlawful to use against a consumer those thing necessary in order to 1) make a living, 2) seek health care. There is no evidence that a person with high student loans, or medical bills will not make their house payment! In the contrary, it increases their investment in their community which establishes long term investment. It stimulates the economy!

  • SSI In-Lieu Levy
    Out sourcing jobs off shore not only robs American workers of gainful employment, it weakens Social Security funding. Tell the president and congress that American companies sending jobs abroad should be required to make an in-lieu payment to SSI for the amount the company and worker would have paid into SSI.

  • One set of offices
    The state of Illinois has a state capital in Springfield. The state is trying to save money by cutting serves that are badly needed for people in Illinois such Murray Center, The Animal Disease Lab, Tamms Prison, and many more. However, they are still moving government offices to Chicago. Why are we paying rent in Chicago where rent is very high while our capital is in Springfield which is in the center of the state and where things are at lot lower cost?

  • Tax Churches
    Churches receive tax exempt status because it is assumed that they provide social services to the community. This is wrong and illogical for three reasons at least. One: church assistance does not relieve any taxpayer burden. No one goes off medicare or medicaid because the church is paying the bill. No one stops receiving food stamps because they've gotten enough food boxes from the local parish. Taxpayers still provide social services in the billions. Two: If churches have the right to make political contributions to further their agenda, they should contribute to the public process by which they gain that agenda, just like we all do. Three: Freedom isn't free. It costs all of us to keep freedom of religion a solid cornerstone of the meaning of our country, just like all our other freedoms. Those benefitting from that protection should pay for it too.

  • non violent cannibus offender jobs program
    One easy way for state and local governments to save money is by releasing non violent offenders. In order to keep them accountable and increase tax revenues such release would depend on them getting a Job. Non violent offenders should have access to career builders, and if employed they should be released as long as they stay employed.

  • It's time to adopt the Progressive Self-Adjusting Flat Tax
    The Progressive Self-Adjusting Flat (SAFT) is fair, lowers taxes for everyone, eliminates budget deficits and eliminates the National Debt within a predetermined period (around 15 years or less). If adopted, SAFT will bring confidence in the American economy back to Americans as well as to the rest of the world, which is so dependent on America's economic health. Please see the video presentation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82b7cTX53mk. SAFT uses an EXCEL spreadsheet (Tax Calculator) based on the IRS's own spreadsheets to achieve its ultimate goal of a "Revenue-Neutral" budget after the National Debt is eliminated. SAFT sets permanent Tax rates of which the lowest is 5% for incomes between $15,000 and $50,000 and the highest is 20% for incomes over $10,000,000. With "full" employment, once the National Debt is paid off, the SAFT permanent tax rates might even have to be set lower to maintain a Revenue-Neutral State.
