• No Longer Using Social Security Number for Identification Purposes
    I think it's should be illegal for companies to require individuals to use their social security numbers for identification. I believe it would reduce the identity theft if these numbers had no use other than the original purpose to identify you to the Social Security Administration. Every action Americans take (including verifying themselves to local businesses) includes use of their social security number or a portion of it.

  • Can you get a fair workman comp hearing? NO
    It is about getting a fair hearing on workman comp, you follow the rules to the T and get stiffed. But lawyers can take judges to breakfest, lunch or dinner what does that get you, your case won. I have proof. How many of you feel you did not get a fair hearing?

  • No Lobbying Pledge
    Congressional approval ratings are at an all time low, and with good reason. Between 1947-1948 President Harry Truman's infamous "do nothing" Congress enacted 906 laws—ours has passed a mere 173. The promise of a lucrative future as a lobbyist makes elected officials ignore the needs of the people while catering only to fat cats and special interests. I feel as though my government does not work for me, and that Congress has lost touch with America. This has happened, in large part, because the revolving door has turned it into a farm league for K Street. It's time for Congress to return their focus to the common person and take seriously the job we elected them to do.

  • Run-Off Elections
    We need to have built in run-off elections so that voters can show their support for candidates who are not in the lead without feeling like they're "throwing away" their votes. This is important because it allows people to support a third party candidate, and it may be that the alternate candidate is the best choice.

  • Term Limits
    When our Founding Fathers framed the Constitution and the Bill of Rights I doubt they envisioned our elected Congressional terms to be more than a finite period of time. Today Congress members have begun to feel entitled to their positions and hence corporate money, lobbyists, and PACS own them. Reelection becomes the Congress person's primary goal - and not what is best for the country.

  • Term limits for Congress
    The country would be better served if there were term limits for Congress. This would help to reduce some of the gridlock that we are seeing as members wouldn't be so worried about reelection and would vote their conscience versus party lines. What you have right now is everyone concerned about reelection and voting party lines versus whats best for the country.

  • Election Day
    Poll workers are one of the most important positions undertaken by citizens across this country during elections. For a number of reasons,a very limited number of individuals are able to take time off from their jobs to undertake these duties. As a result, these positions are severely undermanned on election day. Working the polls is as important as serving on a jury.
