Remove Bob Lonesberry from WHAM 1180.. His sanctimonious vitriol commentary is hurtful to our community. He had been fired by WHAM 1180 before because of racist comments he made, only to be rehired. Still, this man spews racism and bigotry towards women, all behind a very thin veil.

With community encouragement, our county recently turned down an offer to use fracking waste (undisclosed toxic chemical waste from hydrofracking) as de-icing 'brine' on our roads. Our water source, a well, is about 6 feet from the road. Chemicals used on our roads can stick to our shoes and run-off into our water sources. Legislation and oversight of this practice needs to be immediate and strong, yet doesn't yet exist. Let's get it started.

Please impeach Brownback for violating the sacred trust between governor and people for people the will of lobbyists and corporate backers before the needs of the people.

Dramatically increased life spans require that we make common sense adjustments to Social Security and Medicare. Proposed solutions that "grandfather" everyone over 55 show political cowardice, are divisive, and assume those of us closer to retirement aren't willing to share in the sacrifice. I believe all age groups love this country and are willing to pitch in as long as they feel the sacrifice is equally shared. Since raising the retirement age disproportionately affects the poor, equal sacrifice would call for eliminating the Social Security and Medicare payroll caps. This would ensure all Americans contribute the same percentage of their income (whether from work or investments) to these programs. Finally common sense dictates that these programs should be means-tested so that benefits are not automatically paid to those fortunate enough to not need them.

Return to a more efficient and effective form of city government. As a long-term city employee and union president for over nine years I have seen the problems, poor stewardship, and lack of professional training and behavior of city management. It's time to return to a more beneficial leadership process.

It is time we made our democracy more dynamic and meaningful. The President of the United States should be elected by a direct vote. Whoever gets the most total votes in the country should be President. There is no need for an electoral college.

At $7.25 per hour, New York’s minimum wage remains decades out of date. With growing numbers of New York State residents relying on low-wage jobs to survive, too many workers do not earn enough to afford basic expenses. The Senate and Assembly should pass legislation raising the minimum wage to $8.75 per hour and indexing it to rise automatically with the cost of living each year. Raising the minimum wage is politically popular and morally right. Eighty percent of New York voters support raising the minimum wage.

Taking away our deduction on homes, so the wealthy can keep there tax break, is morally wrong. We need that deduction to make ends meet, with keeping a home fixed up. These deductions affect future home buying as well
