  • Tell Rep. Van Hollen, "Cut Pentagon waste, not Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid
    Key to resolving the so-called "fiscal cliff"/deficit crisis, Congress must cut wasteful Pentagon spending. It is out of control and defense contractor CEOs couldn’t be happier. Even though the Iraq War is over, and the drawdown in Afghanistan continues, contractor CEOs making up to $26,000,000 a year are lobbying their friends on Capitol Hill to protect their exorbitant corporate salaries and profits, all at the expense of middle class and military families. Enough is enough. CUT THE PENTAGON WASTE and strengthen, not cut, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and other real and pressing needs!

  • Teachers take their pensions back
    I am an Illinois teacher. My pension money has been recklessly mismanaged by Illinois legislators that don't want to repay what they borrowed and instead want to pass the burden back onto school districts and taxpayers. I propose we make them forfeit their pensions to repay Illinois teacher pensions and show accountability for their reckless spending habits and irresponsible mismanagement of money that was not rightfully theirs to spend.

    The Second Amendment has become the new shackle, ball and chain, trapping the American people in a quagmire of mass shootings, preventing us from adopting or even proposing new laws to control 21st century guns. Lets give freedom and power back to the American people! Lets repeal the Second Amendment now!

  • Officials to receive Social Security instead of Pension
    I believe if government officials depended on Social Security, like the common citizen, they would have more mercy on those who receive it. As citizens of the United States, they should only receive a pension if they have been an elected official for twenty years (as the common citizen).
