The American working and middle classes have been hit hard financially over the last decade and need some tax relief - a 10% increase in income tax when moving up from the 15% bracket to the next level is too much money out of the pockets of people who are struggling to make a livelihood. A modification needs to be put into effect before our next tax deadline.

This is not an African issue, it is a GLOBAL issue. We need to prevent the further spread of the virus and help the people infected.

The most important cause in the world is for people to have a say in their government. It is a disgrace that Kansas lags the state of the art in voter participation by over 50 percent. We can do better: let's make our Founding Fathers proud!

In 2000, Ms. Katherine Harris was Florida's Secretary of State, the official in charge of making the elections fair. She was also the chair of George W. Bush's Presidential campaign, the person in charge of making sure Bush was elected. Look what happened. In 2004, Ms. Glenda Hood was in exactly the same position. So was Mr. Ken Blackwell, Secretary of State for Ohio. Despite the obvious fact that a single person cannot be in charge of making sure an election is fair and at the same time make sure one candidate wins, there was nothing illegal about this. Congress must immediately pass a law banning this conflict of interest. Any election official who takes a job working for a candidate running in that election must be forced to resign their position.

Giving tax breaks blindly in hopes of the Corporations creating jobs is NOT a cost effective way to spur our economy. For the same 300 billion dollars the Government could have hired 6 million workers Nationwide to begin re-building our roads, bridges and schools.

This money was stolen from taxpayers by Medicare fraud. An honest individual with morals would give it back to the taxpayers.

I have been homeless, so I have personal experience with suffering and am very empathetic to others. It strikes me as deeply immoral to have a country so wealthy, yet people so poor. Now it is a crime when individuals take matters into their own hands to help the less fortunate. The government is not providing equality of opportunity and now it feels threatened when good citizens pick up the slack. We the people are "mad as hell and we're not gonna take it anymore". It seems like the government just wants to appear to be needed to help the poor, while only handing out peanuts to a select few, then it criminalizes poverty and those that seek to eliminate it. More prisons, more prisons, disenfranchise more voters, continue oligarchy, militarize the police, etc., etc.

On numerous occasions the Philadelphia Police Department have been called to our block for parking issues due to residents and guests of residents parking on the cement island in the center of our culdesac. Parking in this area does not affect traffic patterns nor does it affect pedestrians from accessing the sidewalks. Parking in this area is a direct result of limited parking spaces due to multiple cars owned by each home. Residents choose to park here to avoid blocking the fire hydrants and to avoid the blockage of emergency vehicles from accessing any property on Saxon Place. We respectfully request the permission of the City of Philadelphia to park in a reasonable manner on our quiet residential street that has no through traffic. Thus, eliminating unnecessary emergency calls to 911 and eliminating wasted tax dollars on frivolous calls.

Today's party of FDR is more like Republican Lite, and the fools at DNC can't understand why the 'base' didn't bother to support them? We desperately need leadership in the Democratic Party that doesn't act like they work for the Republican Party. Professional losers and cringing collaborators need not apply.
