I, Rikki Renee', am starting this petition because I do not believe that our deployed soldiers should have to pay for their internet, phone calls, etc. All cell phone services should work overseas that way our soldiers can use their personal phones while they're not working. They should get free wi-fi to be able to communicate with families back home and keep in touch with everyone. If our soldiers can put their lives on the line and leave their families for extended periods of time to protect our freedoms, such as wi-fi and cell phones (etc), they should get it for free. They were brave enough to step up, so all these internet and cell phone companies need to work with them. As for our congress and such, they need to make it possible for our soldiers to get the best possible treatment available while overseas. Such as 3 good meals a day, a set work schedule, the best benefits, the best care providers, first class plane tickets home, etc. They should not be hurting for anything!! And anyone with a loved one in the service knows how I feel. My husband just left me and 2 kids both under the age of 3, to serve our country and he is having to pay $90.00 a month for wi-fi, we have to get his phone suspended because it will not work over there, and their plans and missions for overseas are STILL not set in stone. Please sign this petition and lets get something done!

How is a company that does not pay its employees a living wage permitted to say it is profitable? Simple; they pass their costs of doing business on to us as taxpayers (food, healthcare and shelter for their employees) and take the bare subsistence money that should be going to their workers and give it to the shareholders instead. Enough. A company isn't "profitable" if it's workers need to rely on welfare for survival.

The outdoor channel promotes animal cruelty, and promote the criminal Melissa Bachman show, whom goes on hunting endangered species and beautiful wild animals for the sole purpose of showing off. This petition is open to all governments world wide to ban Melissa Bachmann and any hunter to obtain visas. Also we urge the readers to boycott the Outdoor channel as it promotes animal cruelty, the humans from next generations deserve to have beautiful wild animals, and these bastards are obsessed with hunting them even when wild animals numbers are dwindling fast , it is a crime against all of us, and it must be stopped

As U.S. Catholic bishops are struggling to adapt to Pope Francis's vision for a more inclusive and welcoming Catholic Church, one Illinois bishop thinks he knows exactly what the pope would want him to do: Blame marriage equality on the devil and schedule an "exorcism" at the same time the governor signs it into law. According to Bishop Thomas Paprocki, the Illinois legislature is "morally complicit as co-operators in facilitating this grave sin … We must pray for deliverance from this evil which has penetrated our state and our church." While other Catholics are working to put service to the poor and broken at the center of the church's ministry, Bishop Paprocki is embarrassing the church with a pointless political stunt, staging what he's calling "prayers of supplication and exorcism in reparation for the sin of same-sex marriage."

I have worked two three jobs for long time I am tired for anyone who has done that knows what I am talking about. Washington DC put on the ballot for $15 an hour and it was voted in New Jersey did the same $8.25 hour.

As students at Indiana State University we see our tuition rise every year. Looking at the average salaries of professors and coaches, there is a big discrepancy in where the money goes. ISU values athletics over education when you look at the data.

If Congress Along With The White House have to Live Off of Minimum Wage, Social Security, & Medicare/Medicaid like the Rest of Us Already do then Maybe they Will Raise the Living Wage & Leave the Rest Alone from Now On !!!

Curtailing forest access greatly affects the economies of small rural communities. Wise management of the road system is not closures to eliminate rural lifestyles but allowing access for recreationists during peak use periods.

I have paid into Medicare for decades, but I cannot use its benefits because I live in Germany. $104.00 is deducted from my Social Security each month. Many Americans travel back to the USA for major medical events when the US could save money if treatment is covered where the Americans live.

Disney has now completely eliminated pin trading in varies Disney parks all over the world and its up to us to save this time honored tradition!

The federal government continues to throw money at oil companies that are making record profits. We need to bring down the debt and reign down on irresponsible oil companies that fail to invest in the future of energy.
