Corporate profits are at an all-time high, and wages at an all-time low. Though productivity has increased 99% over 4 decades, wages have stagnated, increasing only 4%. Workers don't enjoy the rewards of their increased productivity, while corporate CEOs make out like bandits. Even as CEO compensation has skyrocketed over 900 percent, the minimum wage has lost one-third of its value over the past 45 years. Adjusting minimum wage for inflation since 1968, 30 million U.S. minimum wage workers would be making $10.56 instead of the current $7.25 per hour. Raising the minimum wage to $10.50 would provide important economic stimulus.

stop bullying in SCHOOLS!

Stop Wake County from allowing LED signs in residential neighborhoods.

There is so many people affected by Dry Mouth Syndrome because of medications being taken for other illnesses. This drys the mouth where there isn't enough salava to wash out the bacteria and that causes tooth decay and loss of teeth.Dry mouth is responsible for Heart problems and strokes also.

Paraquat is the most toxic herbicide developed in the last 60 years. It shouldn't be used in residential areas.

NOTE: The proposed City Council restriction on the educational tours and tastings ordinance (which is already Georgia State Law) would prevent all Savannah breweries from hosting private events (including future breweries for Coastal Empire Brewing Co and Service Brewing Co.). Southbound Brewing Company is a new brewery in Savannah, Georgia, and the city is voting on an ordinance on August 22, 2013 that would restrict their business practices, such as private events and possibly educational tours of the brewery. However, Georgia State Law allows for all Georgia breweries to conduct tours and have private events. Why should Southbound Brewing Co.'s business practices be hindered? It's unfair and would make Savannah an unfavorable place for other potential breweries to open. Breweries are job producers and good for the growing artisan and “support local” movements. Also, breweries are statistically shown to be charitable. Southbound for example donates their spent grain to the Bethesda Boys Academy, and 100% of production breweries give to charity organizations and participate in fundraising events for charities. 47% of our production breweries report that they regularly volunteer and in Georgia alone craft breweries reportedly donated $172,000 to charity organizations in 2012. I am a craft beer lover, small business advocate and want to see Savannah thrive and believe having a stronger craft beer scene will help our local economy and culture.

Career politicians get into the "political" network and lose site of what is important to the people of the United States.

The inevitable path of democracy will lead to voting through mobile technology. The Altruist Party (AP) intends to establish this concept for ‘The People’ of the United States, State-by-State, as a Human Right and NOT for profit.

When I approached the Sgt. about getting assistance to protect me from my husband who had assaulted, tortured and was stalking me the officer offered me money and a place to live, citing a "personal interest" in me. He then refused to enforce my protective order when I called to report my husband HUNTING me. I was told I was "crying wolf".

My petition is meant to end the Rent-A-Slave arrangements we now have with Third World Countries that masquerade as "Free Trade Agreements"

In America, people who work hard should be able to afford basic necessities like groceries, rent, childcare and transportation. However, if you make minimum wage in Arizona, you have to work 85 hours PER WEEK, just to get by. Many low-wage workers have to go on public assistance, despite working full-time. This just isn't right, especially when their employers are mega-corporations, raking in billions of dollars each year in record profits. Fast food companies are some of the biggest culprits. While their workers make a mere $11,000 a YEAR, a fast food CEO makes an average of $25,000 PER DAY! Fast food workers all over the country are standing up to demand they be paid fairly for their hard work. Sign on to show these brave workers that they are not alone and that, here in Arizona, we want living wages for all workers!
