The American people (the 99%) have been messed with for too long. We need to demand that taxes be raised (back to Clinton-era rates) on the ultra rich. No cuts to important programs like Medicare and Social Security. The country is stronger when we the people are stronger.

All Americans throughout the USA, It is time to build for the future

Unemployment rates are decreasing slowly yet far too many are having extreme difficulty locating employment along with family or friends who want and NEED to work to elevate the economy. We will be left out in the cold with no other resources to maintain living expenses or afford healthcare.

The President’s first post-election confrontation with the GOP – over the supposed fiscal cliff Republicans created – is about to unfold, and many of us fear that once again the President will lean over backwards to accommodate the party of denial and intransigence.

This petition urges the President to defy Republican blackmail. We don't need a "grand deal" that's a "grand sell-out."

To put more money in the polititions hands, California State has imposed a new Fire Prevention Fee (NOT A TAX, THET SAY) upon habitable stuctures or parcels in what they call the responsibility areas. These fees (or really taxes) go up to $150.00 per year. I live in a 3 bedroom house and just paid $115.00 for this bogus tax. I am outraged. Jerry Brown approved this. I want to protest this effort to further strap the public for our government's failure to control their spending. I am calling upon our legislature to overturn this fee.

Lithonia is DIRTY, and lacking in sidewalks for those that use public transportation and there are plenty of taxpayers here, so how are our tax dollars being spent????

Part of the issue with Social Security and Medicare solvency revolves around the Baby Boom generation which is beginning to retire. We need to ensure those systems are there for them.
