Eliminate Real Estate Taxes by increasing sales taxes on a revenue neutral basis. Average sales tax increase required would be 1.75% (est). No sales tax increases can be authorized without a statewide popular vote. Eliminate all county and state offices that are presently tasked with the appraisal or collection of these taxes.

Gil Kerlikowski, head of the White House Office for National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP), has continued to neglect and ignore rational, scientific data in regards to drug policy. He has additionally claimed successes where none exist and proliferates disinformation which inhibits rational progress for the sake of maintaining the ignorance of the status quo. Gil Kerlikowski needs replacement.

I would like to see the Federal Employment Retirement system amended to eliminate the Federal Basic Annuity portion of the Act for members of Congress and make the contribution that would have been payable to the Annuity, payable to the Social Security System.

Our Constitution, Article two section four, makes it clear: "Bribery, Treason, and other high crimes" by all civil officers from the President on down, are against the law. Yet, Bribery is practiced every day in the halls of Congress with impunity by so called lobbyists giving our civil officers money to pass a law that will serve the lobbyists' employers

Taking the money out of politics would take the influence of corporations and billionares out of our government. The corruption in Congress is all caused by political campaign contributions that buy influence and congressional votes. This is not the way the founding fathers wanted it to be and the majority of the people.

INSURANCE COMPANIES have MADE SURE that ERISA laws and WORKERS COMP laws are STACKED AGAINST THE WORKER.Your Group Disability Insurance Policy purchased at work is governed under ERISA law and is riddled with Fraudulent claims denial practices such as paying doctors to deny claims who have never met the claimant. NO trial by Jury or Punitive Damages are Allowed by Law . Stop Congress from favoring big Insurance Companies NOW.

This process of electing our President needs to be eliminated!!!! It was started back 200 years ago when there wasn't all the communication that we have now. "Now" it's not needed. I think this is the big reason that alot of people don't vote, they feel that their vote doesn't count and that the politicians control everything. This needs to be changed for the good of our country!!!!!

Senator Chuck Schumer is extremely vindictive: http://news.yahoo.com/facebooks-eduardo-saverin-spits-eye-american-people-172220717--abc-news-politics.html

When do the people take back our land, life and liberty. Sign me up for that because we are growing very tired of the governments oppressive in-human ways. Pretty soon the only choice will be to abolish all government and start over. Where again do I sign the petition for that because it's about time all of you politicians go get a real job to help humanity instead of thinking you can micro-managing the human race.

The Federal Reserve continues to manipulate our economy to benefit the wealthiest Americans while preventing ordinary Americans who want to save their money from accruing any kind of interest in their savings accounts by keeping interest rates artificially low. As if this wasn't enough, the Federal Reserve has also been picking the winners and losers of our economy by giving more than $16 trillion dollars away to "too-big-to-fail" banks in the form of bailouts. These are staggering facts, but this is just what we know of the secretive Fed and its actions. Enough is enough. Citizens deserve to know what the Federal Reserve has been doing behind closed doors, and it should be audited immediately.

Housing is all about the monthly payment, no matter if you call it rent, a lease, or mortgage. The higher the interest rate the higher the monthly payment. Investors jack up that rate. If the bonds from those rates were sold to homeowners, the pressure would be to lower interest rates. Homeowners would fund their fellow homeowners and get a modest retirement income at the same time.

Congressmen and senators receive taxpayer paid health and pension benefits. Since nearly all members of the two houses of congress are already millionares before they are elected to serve the people, they do not deserve taxpayer paid free health and pension benefits.
