  • Petition to limit inherited & gifted wealth
    The federal debt is now at a critical level, and the fairest way to pay off a lot of this debt is with a big increase in the estate/inheritance tax, to tax the mega-millions/ billions going to people who didn't earn it, by limiting the amount that may be received as gift or inheritance.

  • Mr. Boehner lets talk about cutting entitlement spending
    I am tired of the Republicans taking away programs that aid ordinary middle class citizens and giving aid to weathy oil barons. The oil industry is doing quite fine. It is wrong plain and simple to take away aid to the most needy by cutting Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid while my tax dollars go to aid oil companies who are the least needy.

  • Electoral College and Fair Elections
    It seems every election year the vote comes down to one or more states and it seems those states always have election fraud allegations from both sides. No matter who wins, those allegations hang over that candidate and further divides the country. We should make presidential elections based on the popular vote and make it easy for every qualified voter to vote.

  • Distribution of NC General Statutes to every household.
    Citizens are required to abide by the law but not in every case is the law intuitive or available to them prior to a lawsuit or criminal conviction. This leaves citizens two choices: hire an attorney and pay the exorbitant fees that they charge or inadequately represent themselves, pro se. The law should not be hidden from the citizens so just as the phone book is distributed yearly the state laws should be distributed to every household along with all revisions to the laws. In these economic times 80% of citizens cannot afford attorney fees and there is disparity in the courts against pro se litigants.

  • Helping Single Mothers Out of Poverty and Off of Welfare: Amending The Workforce Opportunity Act
    The Workforce Opportunity Act was developed to help single mothers get into the workforce and off of public assistance so they could better provide for their families. Unfortunately this Act is stigmatizing and degrading and was not implemented in the best interest of these mothers. Everyone knows that having a good education is the key to getting a good job, yet this Act does not fully support women who are returning to school to further their education. This Act needs to be amended with better programs and services to help single mothers like myself help ourselves.

  • Cardinal Dolan: Save Our Schools
    The Archdiocese of New York plans on shutting 27 Archdiocesan Schools. The selling of just one painting that the Catholic Church owns would save our schools. Closing the schools will impact 5,000 students who for the most part are nonwhite and below the poverty level.
