My patients are too poor to get insurance and would be covered by Medicaid if ga had not opted out of obamacare

Police shot two women in Torrance as they were delivering papers from their car in the early morning. There should be no reason to fear random acts of violence and especially not from the police. These officers did not even hesitate or ask questions before they opened fire and shot over 30 bullets into the back of a civilian truck. Injuring hardworking, unarmed Americans in the process. Our police force should have more discipline than a junkie with a weapon. http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2013/02/torrance-shootings.html

Yes I have!.

The present disability determination process is inaccurate. Full of paperwork & repetition. Physician reports are normally completed by non professional office staff "interpreting" physician files. Determinations are made by team members who have no personal knowledge of the capabilities & limitations of the applicant. Determination reports often contain damaging errors. In my case, my letter of denial cited a report from a doctor & location I never heard of. Among other discrepancies in the letter, it was stated that I had a sound memory. My application made 13 references to my poor memory. I phoned my contact person to inform her of the errors. Her response was insistent & firm: That's what the team decided; you can appeal. I was reporting a decision based on blatantly false information - errors on their part; but still had to go through the routine appeal process. Nonchalant staff incompetency cost me big time: I lost my life savings & lost precious time in slowing progression of another medical condition that was developing. While I waited, actually ineligible applicants began receiving benefits. Disability determination reform will save billions of tax dollars now spent on fraudulent beneficiaries & needless repetitive ineffective processes, & will greatly expedite the provision of medical care & basic needs income to those who are actually unable to work. Staff & resources need to be redirected from incessant repetitive paperwork, mailings, & appeals to direct contact between applicants & staff, requiring only one swift decision based on actual fact. At this point the vast majority of legitimate applicants end up appealing initial applications twice before being approved. Worse yet, some applicants who clearly can't hold a job, run out of appeals & must wait to submit another initial application & go through the whole process again. Citizens who have worked & paid taxes & become unable to work deserve an accurate timely disability determination process. Tax payers shouldn't have to pay taxes for inefficient repetitive determinations & for Social Security Income & Medicare for hundreds of thousands of ineligible beneficiaries. Please help me convince the White House & Congress to begin taking action - to go after beneficiary fraud & revamp the disability determination process. Of note: going after Medicare Provider fraud has already saved billions of dollars. PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION NOW.

The post office is not having problems because of Email. Congress has required them to fund their retirement program for 75 years ahead. This is unprecedented. they are also restricted from providing other services that would make money. They have been forced stop Saturday deliveries to save money. This might just be the beginning. They just need the pension funding requirement made reasonable.

Of all the states in the northeast which maintain an income tax, Pennsylvania is the only one which is restrained constitutionally to a simple flat tax. Unlike the federal income tax, which allows for deductions of other taxes, business and investment losses, and some of the expenses of running a household, the Pennsylvania income tax falls most heavily on the poor and on small business. Unlike other state income taxes in the area, the flat tax makes no allowance for higher tax rates on discretionary disposable income, not devoted to necessities.

Governor Sandoval, our children are Nevada’s future. ALL children in Nevada deserve the best teachers so that Nevada no longer ranks last in our nation in education. Nevada ranks last in the U.S. for high school graduates. In the top school districts worldwide, three things matter most: 1) getting the right people to become teachers, 2) developing them into effective instructors and, 3) ensuring that the system is able to deliver the best possible instruction to EVERY child. Nevada will dwell more on primary and secondary education. We need to make sure that ALL children in secondary education are prepared to meet the needs of our ever changing and demanding workforce, this means, preparing them for the world outside of Nevada and seeing that ALL are prepared to meet those needs through higher education. Without our children meeting the future workforce demands, Nevada will remain a workforce that only supports low-paying casino and mining jobs.

In 2010, the Food and Drug Administration began paving the way for approval of genetically engineered (GE) salmon. The first transgenic animal approved for human consumption, GE salmon would open the floodgates for GE cows and pigs, which biotech companies are waiting in the wings to finally commercialize after years of research and development. Not to be outdone by the FDA, this year the U.S. Department of Agriculture has already approved three GE products. First the department announced it would allow unrestricted growing of GE alfalfa, which could destroy the organic dairy industry and block farmers from the export market since many countries won’t accept GE-contaminated crops. The USDA has also “partially deregulated” GE sugar beets and approved a new type of GE corn that is designed to be facilitate ethanol production. The biotechnology industry has genetically engineered a fish that grows at twice the normal rate, so it can get to market sooner and make more money, faster. The FDA doesn’t even do its own testing of genetically engineered animals: it relies on information provided by the company that wants approval. And because GE salmon are being considered as a new animal drug, the process isn’t focused on what happens to people who eat genetically engineered animals. So on top of the health concerns posed by raising salmon in crowded factory fish farms that rely on antibiotics and other chemicals, the FDA could be adding the unknown risks of GE salmon to the mix. It’s up to us to demand that our legislators take action by supporting and passing HB 1192 and other measures to label genetically engineered foods in Colorado. This is a joint effort between Food & Water Watch Colorado, MoveOn Denver Metro Council and MoveOn Boulder Council.

Our kids are killing each other and all they have are these rappers giving them false hope telling them they can sell drugs and that's all they see and believe the only way they can make. The programs that are in effect are just all fun and games nothing started while they are young to let them know how important education is for them and teachers are giving up on the students and once they reach 18 its already to late and they are in survival mode instead on school mode. I want to start programs that can and will motivate the kids while they are young and continue to strive and let them know drugs, guns, girls, and violence is not the only way to make it or be cool/ successful out here. I am open to any ideas and I need help because I won't stop trying to help these kids change their path.

We should have a national committee to bring all information into a single committee to see where there is familar policies and actions on a state by state level and incorporate those into a single policy to move upon each state's governing bodies. This will allow us to track state policies to build a national agenda of policy reform that will ensure the right of one person and one vote in all national elections.

I was a firefighter/paramedic for the city of miami for 29 years and went to many nursing homes and assisted living homes that were in poor shape. the governors and fl legislature has negelected this issue for the last 12 years.
