• President Obama Fight for the Middle Class Workers
    President Obama is working right now to prepare a speech about a new jobs program. We need to encourage him to think primarily about the Middle Class because we are the ones who are shrinking while the Upper Class becomes larger and larger. He also needs to give up on working with the Congressional Republicans, they WILL NOT support him they just want him out! They do not care about their constituents they are beholden to the corporations who give them the funds to hold their office.

  • Stop the city's parking meter people from raping the citizens wallets
    Bring parking fines down to a reasonable amount per infraction. 20$ is plenty to detour people from forgetting to pay their meters. Save large fines if need be for fire hydrants and handicap spaces. Everything else is just a way to tax the people without having it approved by the people.

  • Lift the Social Security Income Cap
    Social Security taxes only apply to the first $106,000.00 of income. Lifting this cap would: 1) increase fairness, 2) make social security solvent, 3) help the elderly and disabled, by not cutting their benefits, and 4) stimulate the economy, when recipients are able to pay their bills.

  • It's Time to Break-up Public Enemy #1 Goldman Sachs
    Goldman Sachs has become the most powerful institution in America wielding overwhelming authority over our political system, our economy and the world's financial markets. It is immoral and untenable that a private entity should ever hold America in its grasp as does Goldman Sachs. This tyranny must end.

  • California State Bank
    California should have a State Bank [like North Dakota] to generate money for the State and support economic activity in the State. Large sums of money go through the State Treasury and the State could save money and generate income by having that money managed by a State Bank as well as accepting deposits and providing banking services to Californians at presumably cheaper rates than Commercial banks.

  • Why does CEO pay exceed taxes paid
    Since the Federal Government's budget fight is holding up progress, it could be helpful if they heard from thousands as to ideas for possible revenue increases and/or tax reform.

  • Maximum Wage
    We have a minimum wage to assure that working people are provided with at least a minimum salary. Why not a maximum wage, a "greed tax," to put an end to the absurd salaries paid to corporate executives? If no one could earn more than $1 million a year, including bonuses, and all earnings above that were taxed at a 100% level, corporate profits could be used more wisely and fairly, and salary distribution would be more fair. No one should need more than $1 million per year to lead a good, productive, happy life.

  • Stop Outsourcing Jobs
    Join with the American Jobs Alliance in fighting for jobs in America. Congress will soon vote on job-killing trade agreements with Korea, Panama and Colombia. These deals are like NAFTA and will cost hundreds of thousands of jobs, and adversely affect the lives of workers and farmers, here and abroad. Congress has a chance to stand up for jobs in the United States. We're calling on Congress to reject these treaties.

  • Obama's New Job Proposal
    As an Obama supporter, I believe that's it's time for him to stand up for the people that elected him. It's important that he proposes a bold new Job Plan. Dare to follow your beliefs and not water down your ideals to go for what might be acceptable to the other side.
