• Stop appointment of nuclear industry executive to Radiation Control Board
    Utah legislators should reject the appointment of nuclear industry executive Dan Shrum to the state's new Radiation Control Board. This is literally a case of the fox guarding the hen house. His company, "EnergySolutions", is a company in deep financial difficulties scrambling to ram hotter nuclear waste past Utah officials. Ask the Utah senate to reject his appointment when it votes on August 15th.

  • limit political spending on campaigns
    With the presidential campaign in full swing it's obvious how wasteful our election process is. Close to 200million raised and spent in one month on the presidential campaign. The other races are also spending vast amounts of money.. While the poor and middle class in our country cant find a job, are loosing their life savings and homes. Lets funnel that money back into the communities who need it. Hopefully this will create a platform for more transparent elections. Campaign reform is Essential and the only way to heal our country and we must eliminate all lobbyist in Washington. The owners or management of corporations/unions/any one with a lobbyist will be required to do their own bidding.

  • Illinois Public Pensions need to be adjusted to reflect the current fiscal reality
    In the Private Sector, Pensions have gone the way of VHS Tapes. The Public Sector has not caught up with this phenemona. Additionally while the private sector employees need to wait untill they are 65 for retirement and retirement health benefits, the public sector, including teachers, do so at a much earlier age and on the Tax Payer's dime.

  • Boycott Walmart in Pawleys Island
    Since we already have two other Walmarts nearby, another big box store is not needed in Pawleys Island, SC. A 2005 Lowe's effort to locate in Pawleys Island was rejected. As we've stated previously, big box stores are incompatible with many aspects of our small community. We treasure our small businesses, many of which would be adversely affected. Traffic could increase dramatically, and big box stores offer little or nothing that is not already available to us. Please also log on to the Georgetown Times home page at www.gtowntimes.com and complete the one-question survey (on the right side of the home page) concerning a Walmart in Pawleys Island (answer only once - duplicates will be excluded).

  • Felons have not life, liberty or pursuit of happiness
    I have two felonies one in 1986 and the other in 1990. However, since these I have obtained two degrees and have been a model citizen. But, I have been denied jobs because of my past wrongs and the companies do not look at what you done right or how long those occurences have been. It has been over twenty years and I am still serving my sentence. What is rehabilitation?

  • Investigate Tax Exempt Status
    Many destructive religious groups are tax exempt in the U.S.A. Personally,my life has been destroyed by a extremely financially successful cult. This group has done little, to nothing to contribute to others' in need across this country. There should be close examination of those who receive tax exemption status, and do so while calling themselves a "religion."
