    I belive that i've been mislead and misjudged leading to a ban. If staff evaluates all my actions it'd make no sense to do what i did if, i already knew.

  • Mr. President: If Necessary Utilize the 14th Amendment to avoid our Social Safety Net from being ...
    The Republican Party in Congress is threatening to hold the American People Hostage with the threat of dismantling our Social Safety Net or face a Default on the Federal Debt Ceiling by their refusal to vote to raise the ceiling. This would not only wreck our economy - it would have dangerous financial chaos around the World on a planet already in far too much turmoil. And set up a system of government by hostage taking.

  • Save American Democracy! Fight for a Democracy Reconstruction Act!
    We Americans have always thought of ourselves as the greatest democracy in the world. But, sadly, our democracy is not always very democratic: too often political gamesmanship thwarts the will of the people. For the sake of our children and to set an example for the rest of the world, we must do better. We could do so with a few key reforms: universal voter registration; the end of the filibuster rule; non-partisan redistricting; publicly financed elections; representation for the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and U.S. territories.

  • Take Action on Age Discrimination in the US
    Everyone knows age discrimination is rampant in the workplace across the US. We are even told to take experience and education off of our resumes in order to not give away our age. The onus is on the victim to be labeled as a complainer or a whistle blower.

  • games affecting our youth.
    I'm a mother of three teenagers and my oldest son is addicted the mindcraft. He sneaks his ipad in the middle of the night or ipod and he and his buddy play. You take it away he finds it. It controls him. Is all he talks about. Our youth already have enough things making it hard for them to grow up at this time. Why have games Thursday don't do thm any good. I'm not saying don't have games but make them unavailable to children above youth. The gaming world is becoming more important than family.

  • Big Oil Giveaways
    Why a company like Exxon, with a $6 billion profit last quarter, would need tax subsidies is unreal. Spend such money on renewable energies. Oil companies have taken in record profits during our coutries hardest economic period since the depression. They exploit everything and everybody they touch.

  • Respect The Children
    Every time there is a disaster that affects children, natural or man-made, television reporters stick a microphone in a child's face and ask how they feel about the death of a school-mate; are they sad because a classmate has died; are they comfortable returning to school, etc. etc. It is about time the media agree to confine their intrusive and tear-jerking interviews to adults. Let's end the manipulation of kids for the sake of sensationalism.

  • Change Credit Agency reporting rules
    Credit reporting companies should not be allowed to hold negative information in individuals reports more than 5 years. Given the state of the economy since 2008 and the enormous bail outs the financial institutions received, the least consumers should get is a reduction in the credit reporting rules. Jobs, insurance and security backgrounds are all affected by these reports adding to the difficulty getting a job.

  • Governor Bill Haslam: Maximize TN Lottery Revenues for Education As Intended
    In 2011, the Governor of TN was considering allocating TN Lottery Reserves to help support TN budget deficit. It has been reported that the CEO of the TN Lottery earns $600K a year. Rural schools are receiving after-school funds to purchase MacBooks while most of the proceeds come from the poor inter-city lottery players who do not even have an after-school program. So, is this reverse Robin Hood? Before moving to TN from GA, I thought the GA Lottery was bad, cutting back funding every year. At least the GA Lottery pays 100% of a high achieving college freshman's tuition. $4,000 does not pay even half the tuition for any college my son's applying to attend here in TN. According to the 2012 Quality Counts report from the Education Research Center TN scored in the bottom 10 of the 50 states in each of the four tested areas in the National Assessment of Educational Progress. Currently, TN students ranked second to last on the ACT test and approximately 21% of TN adults hold a college degree, far below the national average. Our children's education should be out top priority, and the mishandling and misappropriation of TN Lottery funds needs to stop.
