Every day the courts waste enormous amounts of time and money and thousands of people lose money by being taken away from work in the jury selection process. Professional juries would be comprised of people who would attend a two year program learning the letter of the law and developing an unbiased opinion, moving around in a 20 mile radius to different courtrooms to insure the juries would be mixed and remain impartial. It's a win-win for everybody. For the people who cannot afford and do not want to be on a jury, for people who have an aptitude for this line of work and the countless jobs that would be created and for judges who must repeat themselves day in and day out with the patience of Job for people who don't understand the process, and for the already overburdened, financially taxed court system

I have applied for many jobs and have been denied all of them based on my experience. I want to be able to get a job without being discriminated against for my inexperience and take care of my kids, without being a parent on welfare just to take care of my family.

My clients have been personally affected.

Yes, because HSBC Bank USA commit :Mortgage Fraud" affecting countless families; including my family.

Although California is considered ahead of many of the other states regarding Alimony, we are still living in the dark ages when it comes to opportunity for divorced couples where there are no children, no major assets and where one of the spouses did not work during the marriage. We need to end the court's unlimited jurisdiction over alimony disguised as "spousal support". Regardless of the length of marriage, limits should be set on spousal support. I propose a 5 year maximum spousal support for long term marriages over 20 years to allow the non-working spouse to become self-supporting or to remarry. The standard should be 3 years, and under extreme circumstances 5.

Legalizing it. I have RA & can get pain meds, but then I go from bed to couch to bed! I finally quit the 3 serious cancer drugs they had me on & & down to 1/3 the dosage of steriods. The pain meds numb me & take away any ambition. I take a few hits off a joint & my mind gets to working on other things besides my pain & discomfort & next thing I know I am actually getting something done. It's like hitting you thumb with a hammer. The more you stare at it the more it hurts, but put it off to the side & you don't think about it as much. Still hurts but you can do other things! I am 62 years old & my high on life now is having a good day pain wise & trying to get some enjoyment of living! Or your way I sit on the counch like zombie & watch TV & go to bed & do it all over tomorrow. Is that a way to live? It takes the stiffness & pain of joint damage away to where I can do things without being on a narcotic!!!! It's not like I am abusing drugs, getting wild & crazy, I just want to live out what years I have left & be able do manage my pain & enjoy some sort of life! I have proven to my Doctor that I very seldom use the Oxycodone I was prescibed 2 years ago. In fact that prescription has expired & I still have many left. I only use them when I get tired of the pain & need some rest!! Or would you rather see me taking one every 4 hours? That's no life!!!

Foods created with GMO seeds are scientifically proven unhealthy and potentially dangerous. We have a right to know what is in our food, what seeds it is grown from, and when it is GMO in order to be responsible for our own health. Corporations should NOT have the right to use the media to scare unaware consumers.

I feel very strongly that Governor jerry Brown should not be going to giant corporations and asking them what regulations they would like to eliminate Gov Brown was elected by progressives and he should be asking the working class what he can do to help them not siding with giant corporations in an attempt to make the lives of the working class more difficult .

The control of guns like the military ones to include number of rounds that hand guns can carry.

Governor Nathan Deal refuses to accept federal funds to expand Medicaid. 600,000 Georgians will now go without healthcare. Tell Gov. Deal to put Georgia citizens before ideology!

My son and daughter-in-law have $140,000 in student loans. He is working at Home Depot part time. It's the only job he can find. Get this, they are hiring 55 new people for the store he works in. No one is allowed to work more than 24 hours so Home Depot doesn't have to offer benefits. The student loan debt is killing them.
