• Fast affordable internet for all America
    America and Americans need fast cheap internet service to be informed and globally competitive. Other countries have better, cheaper service and universal coverage. As part of rebuilding America to revitalize the economy, we should extend the internet and possibly make it a regulated utility. Internet connectivity is too important to be left to the indifference, poor coverage and exploitation of the telco and cable companies' effective monopolies. It's as important as electricity: broadband for all.

  • Adirondack Railroad: Lake Placid to Utica!
    We have the rails. We have the natural beauty of our area. Unfortunately, we have few roads, and those that we do have can't be widened to accommodate more cars. Running the railroad from Lake Placid, through Saranac Lake, Tupper Lake, to Utica, there to connect to Amtrak, would bring enormous benefits.

  • US Representative Yoder, support the bill to cut taxes for middle class, not for upper class
    Since the 70s, the upper 5%ers have done very well, while the middle and lower class have not. The Government and the middle/lower class do NOT have the resources to stimulate this economy.....the 5%ers do. Anyone earning over $250K a year can afford to take on about 3% more in taxes while allowing the middle class more money in their pockets from tax cuts before December 31, 2011 to buy the products of the upper class!! Sounds fair to both sides to me!

  • HOME OWNER TAX REDUCTION FOR MILITARY SERVICE
    At least 20 states have HO Tax reduction for all military service men/women who are serving presently and past service. Would like to see Arizona and all other states do the same rather then just a "pat on the back" for those who didn't die for their country.

  • Audit Romney
    Since when can one hide money from the IRS? Imagine if We The People tried to pull what Mitt Romney is pulling? Is he scared of being jailed perhaps? Do the IRS not want to know if he owes THEM money? Either they Audit Romney or they are PART of the problem.

  • New Life Retirement at 60!
    Allowing laborers or anyone toiling at sixty who wishes to retire immediately without penalty would not only open up hundreds of thousands of jobs, but unleash spending sprees, traveling, changes of locale, and in general provide all the jobs we need but stir up the economy to boot. My guess is we'll come out ahead and make a whole lot of people very happy.

  • Taxes on Corporate America
    If companies manufacture over twenty-five percent of their product overseas out side of the USA, then their tax breaks should start to deminish. If 90 percent of their company is produced in the United States then they are allowed to have tax breaks.
