• LULA GILLIAM
    Atlanta City Council just increased their salary by 52%! Given the economy and the fact that many workers in Atlanta have lost their jobs, I think this is an insensitive slap in the face, not deserved and should be revoked.

  • Congress, vote yourself a pay cut!
    The current salary (2013) for rank-and-file members of the House and Senate is $174,000 per year. For all its rhetoric, the US congress has done an exceedingly poor job dealing with the federal defecit and mounting national debt. As a symbol of its commitment to solve these problems, congress should give itself a 75 percent pay cut, to $43,500 per year. When the federal budget becomes balanced and the defecit is near zero, it can restore its pay.

  • Retirement benefits for elected officials
    As we talk about the national budget and cutting spending, I believe that the taxpayer is forgetting about the bill we are paying for officials who have either lost an election or simply just retire. I believe they should be responsible for some of thier own costs after leaving office.

  • Let's abolish the Electoral College
    The electoral college is an outdated system that is both no longer necessary due to a more informed populous and interfering with true democratic decisions in America. United States' citizens should vote in direct democratic elections in which each voter accounts for a single vote, and where it is up to the people directly to decide the fate of their politics.

  • Cut Spending Cut Congress Pay
    Congress lacks common sense to do whats right for the nation. They need to be held accountable to those who elected them. This can be accomplished by punishing them through their paycheck . Let the first budget cut be their pay for poor performance. Make a difference today, let your voice be heard.
