The next Chairman of the Federal Reserve will not just be responsible for ensuring that our economic recovery continues uninterrupted but will also work with the White House on promoting equality, workers' rights, and the welfare of low and middle income Americans. Robert Reich is deeply committed to all these issues and will bring vital balance to the role.

No one stopped the Budget Control Act from taking effect and now the number of budget cuts for low-income Americans is unbearable. Medicare co-pays have gone up and now I have to decide between buying groceries and going to the doctor's. Food Stamps were cut as well and the price of food keeps going up. Then I was cut from an approved priority list of disabled adults for Section 8 rental assistance. What are low-income and disabled people supposed to do?

My son Marquis is 20 years old and autistic! He has been treated horribly at the state facility he was involuntarily committed too! Marquis wants to come back home to live with his mother and has reported numerous abuses and neglect by the facility staff! Marquis needs to be released from this facility and return to the care of his mother!

Due to the constant abuse and neglect of disabled people in these facilities and witnessing and audiotaping an actual attack and assault on my son (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGJFHh9NcV4), cameras need to be installed immediately in these facilities and homes to protect the constitutional and humane rights of disabled people and to catch, remove and punish those who abused them!

Asking Deseret Book to drop Glenn Beck

While going through separation point at Ft. Bliss Tx.,I had explained to the retention NCO that I was planning to apply for my retirement. Since I had attained twenty years with both my reserve and active duty, I was never told about this regululation.

The popular tv show Burn Notice is being canceled.

There's literally nothing worse than Owl City tweets. I get it, Fireflies was a cool rad chill song, but that doesn't give "Adam" a pass. Reading his timeline ruined my evening.

This young 17 year old boy was jogging and the university officer pulled behind him, slammed him on the hood and groped his private area for a few minutes. Without introducing himself as a officer. The young adult thought he was a sexual preditor and protected himself and ran away to saftey. He did not know he was a officer. He was only protecting himself as we have the right to. How would you feel if this was you or your little brother, son, nephew etc ? What would you have done? Don't let the police get away with another crime. This is not right.

SFMTA is planning to remove all parking along Masonic Avenue from Fell to Geary, reduce the travel lanes during rush hour so there will only be two lanes in each direction at all times, install a concrete median strip in the middle of the street, and install bike lanes at both curb lanes (cycle tracks, above the roadway and below sidewalk level). There will be bus bulbouts, so when buses stop to load and unload passengers, only one travel lane will be moving. In order to cross Masonic and to access the bus stops, pedestrians will have to cross the cycle track. Emergency response time will be slowed down. The project is estimated to cost $18 million; the actual final cost is anyone’s guess. Our tax dollars could be better spent improving public transportation. Many people affected by this project did not receive notice from MTA. Adequate environmental review has not been performed.

We, a concerned community of Ocean Park residents, strongly object to the CrossFit opening within the historic and landmark Edgemar Center on Main Street in Santa Monica.

Tell Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt to issue a legal opinion on whether the state's proof of citizenship requirement to register to vote is valid now that the U.S. Supreme Court struck down a similar law in Arizona. With 13,000 Kansas voters already in limbo, a number that grows by nearly 2,000 more each month as a result of this provision, we need action now.
