• realestate crisis solved through rate reset
    To solve the realestate problem, ALL LOANS will be reset to 4.0% interest rate at no cost to the borrower. This will apply only to primary residence loans under 1 million dollars. We can solve this problem in a way where everyone benefits. This is not a bailout, just a rate reset. Most loans will not go bad if interest rates are simply reset. This makes it happen. The cost is low. The benefit high!

  • Tax Funded Democratically Organized and Operated Enterprises
    Democratically organized and operated enterprises are corporations that exist for the sole intention of providing work for its participants. Individuals accepted into these organizations pay for one share and are entitled to vote on organizational policies that directly affect them. They provide security for their participants and are are remarkably efficient in that they discourage CEOs and executives from monopolizing resources. These organizations promote democracy in the US and are badly needed.

  • Wars Must Be Paid For
    If a cause is worth sending our youth to die for, it's worth writing a check for. Congress must pass a law requiring that for any war lasting longer than 3 months, taxes must be raised to pay for it.

  • Refinance America!
    The 1% has benefited greatly from the real estate boom and bust. The other 99% of America have been left to foot the bill by bailing out banks and supporting wall street. Expert economists agree that a mass refinance of America would heal the housing sector, improve the economy, and bring back jobs. Special interest is getting in the way. We need to get loud on this issue and Refinance America!

    ASCAP lobbied Congress to change copyright laws for music performance from 50 years to 75 years. Many Musicians cannot work because ASCAP is charging venues too much money for licensing fees and as a result, they are killing live music. Changing the law would put more musicians back to work in this country.

  • Stop outsourcing manufacturing jobs.
    First, manufacturing has been driven offshore due to cost issues. second; there are only 3 things that create the first nickel for the rest of the US jobs to feed off of; being, the farmer plants and harvests food, the manufacturer that created and produced a product, and resource drillers or diggers that keep the cars going and reduce our dependence on someone else. Manufacturing losses are caused by overtaxation of the corporations, rigid rules that require a multitude of people to keep up with and document, and no or little charge for other countries without those issues to import goods to America.

  • Reinstate Tax Deduction for Credit Card Interest
    Congress needs to reinstate the tax deduction for credit card interest as the banks should be counting this as income and paying taxes on this. Like interest on a home mortgage, this cost should be deductible from income on the tax return. It used to be a deduction, and now more than ever the 99% need tax relief as they are having more and more to live on their credit cards to make ends meet.

The next BUY NO GAS DAY is April 30, 2012. Pass this information on.
