it is a known fact that the 112th congress is the worse congress ever.i want a petition to replace them all asap--and- by the way - they should not get paid forever and medical forever- t it is bad enough that we do that for people in congress that do get the job done-- not these guys. even the republicans have had enough of them

Executives at corporations, like GE, who manufacture our military equipment are paid millions of dollars in compensation by we the people. It is time to limit their income to what other federal/state employees earn. Certainly, those execs are not working 500% more hours nor are they 500% more qualified than our public employees. It is time to limit what we pay them. If the currently elected officials are going after public-employee compensation, then the next logical step is to cut what we pay these large contractors.

The interest on student loans is so high that in the final picture, it exceeds the principle borrowed. For instance, a $47,000 loan ends up costing the student about $90,000. This is ridiculous.

Heavy and light truck "brush guards" pose dangers to both parties in an accident. In single or multivehicle accidents, heavy duty brush guards delay the ability of airbags to properly deploy in an accident. They also defeat the crumple zones that are engineered into vehicles to absorb the impact of a crash, not only endangering the parties driving the vehicle with brush guards, but other vehicles involved in the accident.

I suggest to create a few additional Bus Lines having the acceptable schedule (every hour or every two hours in both directions) in order for people who can not drive to be able to reach important destinations located in different cities of the State of Maine.. Currently, it is not possible to be able (for the regular person) to return from the destination point to the point which he / she left the same day... There is no such possibility currently..

Every October we turn our clocks back an hour,why? Hawaii & Arizona keep there long days of summer all year long, lets do the same.Lets keep daylight savings time the way it is today!

This is an environmental / quality of life / noise pollution issue: I live in San Francisco where there's enough noise already -- without all these motorcyclists riding their super-loud "hogs," setting off car alarms, disturbing daily life. What's with these people and their "I am the loudest!" antisocial behavior? It's beyond inconsiderate. One theory I've heard is that they're compensating for something (a part of their anatomy?) that's lacking? I'm concerned that if nothing is done, the noise levels will only continue to increase. Rather than accept this as the norm, let's speak up and change our reality. I can see this issue growing like wildfire since many people I've spoken to share the same feelings. Also, in the coming years, as more hybrid cars hit the road (with their auto-off feature whenever they come to a stop), we'll slowly be tilting the balance toward a quieter street life. Imagine that? Please, join us!

The Michigan Senate will vote on HB5711 next month threatening to impose the most draconian restrictions on Michigan reproductive health services anywhere in the country and on area small businesses. Michigan Republicans have promised a hands off approach to governance and a pro-business attitude, but HB5711 threatens both, at a time when Michigan is just starting to turn the corner economically.

My wife and I have been taken for thousands of dollars, and they refuse to speak to us on this matter.... I was off work with a shoulder replacement at the time when I got involved with Mr. George Davison. I had invented an invention that had helped in my recovery and thought it would make it on the market. And all I needed is someones help in that direction. After many years, and thousands invested. All I received was a phone call from the consumer affairs department which told me that my case is closed and there will be no more contact from Davison, and then hung up on me….

There is no legitimate reason why Election day has to be on a Tuesday. Changing it to Saturday would give more people the opportunity to vote because they would not need to take the day off and people's lives are typically more flexible on the weekends.

Mitt Romney is in England attending a fund raiser, supposedly for Americans abroad. We don't know that. Justice Alito sat in the chambers for President O'Bamas State of the Union and mouthed "NOT TRUE" about foreign money influencing our elections. If Justice Alito is that uninformed or is that much influenced by the conservatives, then he should be removed from the court because he is not defending the Constitution of ALL Americans, just the right.
