• Eliminate or Lower Interest rates on all Stafford Loans.
    Our taxpayer dollars bailed out the banks. The interest our money we save in these banks is earning less than 1% interest. I petition that students Stafford Loans that are being paid should have the interest eliminated, or at least lowered to the same low rates we are receiving from the banks we bailed out. If you want to get more money back into the economy, eliminate or lower the rates as I've stated, Help bail out these students, many who can't even find jobs. Congress was considering raising rates back up to at least 6% and we are supposed to be thankful that they are trying to keep them at 3%. Well congress 3% is not low enough. Eliminate, or lower them to the same rates the banks that taxpayers bailed out are giving us on our savings accounts. If you're even lucky enough to still have a savings account.

  • Ask the US Dept. of Justice to Investigate Tom Corbett's slow motion investigation of Jerry Sandusky
    When Tom Corbett was the Attorney General of Pennsylvania, he "investigated" Jerry Sandusky for serial child molestation. The investigation went nowhere, as Corbett did not devote sufficient resources. Corbett has a history of prosecuting his political enemies as he gave his friends a pass.

  • Absolute Federal Term Limit
    We have a paralyzed government full of career politicians more interested in fund raisers from lobbyists and rich friends than in their constituents. Their bickering has given Congress the lowest approval rating in history. I'm calling for a Constitutional Amendment for an absolute term limit for all federal offices. There will be no reelection "war chests" nor seniority over competency in committee position appointments. They'll all have exactly ONE chance to make a real difference.

  • Fair Taxation for Active Military Members
    Concerning the recent hoopla over tax breaks for U.S. Olympic medal winners,I don't agree with this logic and don't think it's fair... Why would I have this logic? I think we should give tax breaks with a less tax rate (say like 15% or less for military families)...if it's good for the very rich to pay very little in taxes(15%),why not soldiers and sailors actively serving and fighting for our country? Many in the military are actually having a hard time making ends meet,as well as coming home traumatized and alienated due to money issues. Why not give the true heroes,who are not "commercialized"(except by war profiteers) a tax break? Even the Military Industrial Complex uses the military personnel for "profit"...It's time our military get back their fair share of the profits through a change at lowering the tax rates for these defenders of our feedoms. What do you think?

  • Minimum wage for Congress!
    I received a post on Facebook that said "Pay congress minimum wage and see how quick things change". Sounds like a good idea and it will save some tax payer money. More than half of them are millionaires anyway and have the best health benefits and retirement package of any public sector employee.

  • Outlaw Super Pacs
    It is time for voters to not be taken in by Super Pacs. We must stop influential groups from trying to buy our elections. This means protecting voter rights at all cost, and stopping filthy rich companies, governments, and other groups from trying to take the country over, and make it in their own image and likeness. Our country is about the people and their freedom to vote for who they choose without fighting the money interests that tend to leave them out of who wins and who loses.
