Welfare and food stamps' intentions when first introduced were to help those less fortunate stay afloat and get back on their feet. That's how it should remain, and abuse of the system needs to be stopped. Congress needs to enact legislation that will prevent abuse of welfare money and get those who do not need it off it. In addition, a specified list of "approved" foods needs to be enforced as to curb those who abuse food stamps and buy items that are not "necessities."

The government is has been spraying our skies with aluminum and barium particles for the last six years. The reason they give for doing this is to reflect the sun away from the earth to help with global warming. But the aluminum is toxic and what goes up must come down.

Stopping the various states from implementing laws that adversely work against the voter. We Need a federal system that would keep the times, days and ID requirements uniform and above reproach by individual state governments

The fracking process used in oil and gas drilling is causing numerous and varied proposed regulations from all levels of government in Colorado. Since fracking is unlikely to be eliminated, a Colorado state law that it should only be done with non-toxic, biodegradable chemicals seems easier and appropriate.

It should be important to all Americans,regardless of political persuasion, that our elected officials in Congress and the White House be free and unencumbered, in order to base decisions on what is best for our country and all of it's people, rather than monied special interests. We simply cannot continue with 2 year long campaigns and a situation where a single individual can contribute tens or hundreds of millions of unaccounted for dollars to a campaign, and expect a true democracy to survive.

Allowing the residents of the Commonwealth of Virginia to propose legislation that politicians will not. If enacted, an indirect initiative would be first referred to the legislature, and then put to a popular vote only if not enacted by the legislature.

Removing our troops from further casualties from a war with no direction and lot's of $$, why allow our neighbor's son or daughter to die in vein.
