The blind have problems determining the different dollar bills in our currency. Its about time we find a solution to make it easier for them to make out the different denomination as at the moment they are all the same size and they can be taken advantage of under the present system and that is not fair to them.

elimination of lifetime benefits & pension for all politicians

West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin, who has an A rating from the NRA, has said that it is time to get assault rifles off our streets. We realize taking this position took courage on his part, for we all know that the NRA has successfully used its vast sums of money to intimidate our elected officials -- by threatening to have those members of Congress thrown out of office who do not back the gun manufacturers and their NRA-supported legislation which has put military-style weapons of mass murder in the hands of any and all persons seeking them. Therefore, it is vitally important that Congress be made aware of how many of our country's citizens favor the actions and words which we have been privileged to witness from the Senator from West Virginia. It is courage and leadership like his which we welcome and support. It is the just the kind of leadership which we will remember, and support with our vote, at the ballot box.

When I shop at Walmart I would like to have the option to buy American products. Walmart should have a "Made in America" section.

The majority of the voting public believes in compromised government solutions to many of the country's current problems. A "my way or the highway" minority must not be allowed to paralyze enactment of the legislation required to move this country forward. A powerless and helpless feeling voters derive from the political inaction/misbehavior of their elected Representatives and Senators must be circumvented.

There are only two competitors for high speed broadband Internet service in Louisville and nowhere to turn when service is lacking. I urge our Mayor and Metro Council to consider diversifying the market for this duopoly of corporate antitrust.

These supposed food items are hazardous to nature, to people, to birds & animals, to the environment. This frankenfood needs to be permanently banned from our food supply.

GDL restricts young drivers with extra laws when driving; these include a curfew, as well as only being able to have one other person in the car with them. The law also mandates that GDL drivers need red stickers on their license plates, doing this makes it visible to people who would want to hurt in some way these young drivers. This has also made me not able to fulfill tasks such as driving family members to the airport to see family.

Currently the decision to require postage on absentee (vote by mail) ballots is delegated to the states, and in some states it has been further delegated to the counties. Therefore in some states (Hawaii, Iowa and Missouri - if I am correct), absentee (vote by mail) ballot postage is pre-paid, while in some states (California and Florida) it varies by county, and in other states (Oregon) postage is required to be affixed by the voter. The varying postage requirements are needlessly confusing and do not serve to further democracy. At a relatively small cost, abolition of paid postage on absentee (vote by mail) ballots will work to ensure equity among citizens and further strengthen democracy in the United States.

The first unalienable right mentioned in the preamble to the U.S.Constitution is the,"right to life".Medical research is beginning to understand why all of us inevitably die but,more importantly,how to prevent it!We call on our elected leaders to fund "life extension"research NOW,defeat death and remain consistent with the wise words written by our founding fathers over 200 years ago!!!

I, like many have parent's who are elderly and would like to be able to take care of them. I have a family of my own to take care of and have no room to care for a aging parent alone. Also they have worked hard all their lives and look forward to retirement only to be given very little of an amount as it is to live off of. In my opinion i believe, in these final years they should not continue to have to have the same stresses as earlier in life. They deserve much more!

A petition to form a pledge to support ONLY those who are running for the US Congress the also pledge to support and work for ALL the people of the United States. Support those who will not be influenced by special interest groups or Tea Party types, but instead work for the good of the US and when necessary compromise.
