Often those expressing concern about US debt complain about safety net programs for the very poor 15% of Americans. • Poverty level is $22,314 for a family of four; full-time sales clerks earn about $20, 699. • Minimum annual wage is about $15,600 for 40 hours a week. • A worker can work just as hard as any CEO but still be poor. • The very poor poverty level is about $11,000; they get all of $1.44 per-meal in Food Stamps. If taxpayers stopped subsidizing low-wage businesses and required a living wage for all, there wouldn’t as much need for a safety net. Only 50% of full-time workers earn more than $44,100 annually.

its about the "inevitable" conflict with iran. America does not need that.

War is hugely profitable for a few corporate, or human persons. If War Profits were illegal, most wars would cease as the financing dried up. Profits on the manufacture or distribution of materials consumed by war efforts must be limited to 5% over cost of production.

The horses drawing the "romantic" carriages in nyc, are falling over, getting spooked, and even dying. It's a dangerous endeavor for the horses and for the customers in all the noise and traffic.

All campaign ads, especially the ones on television, should only be allowed to air, if they are truthful. There should be a clearinghouse for all ads, with a fact checking team, to make sure all claims are truthful, before they go to print, online or on television.

"The banks are not lending" is true for millions of Americans who have always paid their bills, have earned high credit scores, and share a long history of responsible borrowing. Those who have sought to refinance a home loan are often mired in paperwork, delay, and unintelligible formulas used by underwriting to deny refinancing. The banks and other Wall Street entities are said to be sitting on trillions in cash, that they fear the effects of Dodd Frank, and/or they are practicing caution. Their "caution" would have been welcome long before the crash and is not credible now. If the government can push the financial giants to help people whose loans are "under water" or who bought more than they could afford, it should certainly investigate and CHANGE bank practices that deny refinancing at today's low rates to responsible borrowers.

On Wednesday February 15, Assembly Bill A05449A will be introduced in the NY state Ag Committee. Sponsored by Assembly Member Amy Paulin, this quick kill bill would allow New York State shelters to kill animals immediately if shelter staff determines that the animals are in “psychological pain”. There is no definition of what constitutes psychological pain. It is completely subjective. There are no standards to how it will be applied. There will be no holding period for scared or feral cats, shy dogs, and traumatized animals. This bill grants shelters the legal authority to kill animals they determine to not be happy, friendly, and outgoing immediately upon intake. They could be killed within a minute of arrival. For the first time anywhere in the United States, shelters will be allowed to kill animals with no holding period of any kind based on the animals’ perceived state of mind.
