America and Americans need fast cheap internet service to be informed and globally competitive. Other countries have better, cheaper service and universal coverage. As part of rebuilding America to revitalize the economy, we should extend the internet and possibly make it a regulated utility. Internet connectivity is too important to be left to the indifference, poor coverage and exploitation of the telco and cable companies' effective monopolies. It's as important as electricity: broadband for all.

FREE Mental Healthcare for all Americans; strict gun control laws because fewer guns mean fewer killings! Our Constitution needs to read according to this century when it speaks to guns.

Governors of Idaho, Montana, Alaska and Wyoming along with other Politicians are backing the killing of Wolves. Ranchers blame the Wolves for the loss of their Cattle.

We have the rails. We have the natural beauty of our area. Unfortunately, we have few roads, and those that we do have can't be widened to accommodate more cars. Running the railroad from Lake Placid, through Saranac Lake, Tupper Lake, to Utica, there to connect to Amtrak, would bring enormous benefits.

I don't believe that the people behind the arena truly have the people or city's best interest at heart with their proposition to put yet another sports facility in the Sodo district. The decision that the people don't have a right to vote on whether or not to use public money for it really irks me when things like the seawall seem like lesser priorities that can be put at risk by a vote instead of the city saying "look this is critical, we need to use the money on this no matter what."

My mother suffers from serious health issues, the only substance that gives her daily relief is making use of cannabis.

Put and end to prohibition,it does not work , Millions of people like my mother would benefit from this God send

Australian Schapelle Corby checked in 4 bags at Brisbane Airport which were underweight. The Qantas system flagged her bags as being 5kgs overweight at Sydney Airport whilst Schapelle was in transit (with no access to her baggage). In Indonesia, one bag was found to contain 4.2kg (9.3lbs) of marijuana. The CCTV footage of all 3 airports have disappeared. The marijuana evidence was destroyed without finger-printing or DNA testing for country of origin despite repeated requests of the Indonesian Police by Schapelle in the presence of Australian Consular Officials. Indonesia law requires the defense to prove innocence not the assumption of innocence with the prosecution having to prove their case like in the USA, UK and Australia. The Australian Federal Police (AFP) allegedly withheld evidence from the Corby Defence Team. Schapelle received a 20 year sentence, the same as Umar Patek the Bali bombmaker who killed 202 souls, 7 American, 88 Australian. Schapelle has been diagnosed with mental illness bordering on suicidal by eminent Australian & Indonesian Mental Health Experts. Anyone transiting through Sydney Airport on that day, could have been the one.

The death of a child is devastating to parents and siblings in its own right. For Murdoch owned tabloids to profit by using a cell phone message that gave parents in England false hope that their daughter was still alive is immoral. Let us not continue to support someone who falsely claimed ignorance of the fact that this was accepted corporate culture.

The current debate format doesn't allow for either candidate to fully explain the significance of their position. Under the current format the candidates only spend a few minutes at best on any particular topic. For those that are highly educated on the topic, this is usually plenty of time. But for those of us who might be some what ignorant about the subject, the current format only leads to more confusion, with each candidate trying give quick media soundbites. If each debate focused on one issue it would be harder for candidates to mislead and easier for citizens to make a truly educated vote.

Americans Need the Law Protecting Each Person from Unethically Behaved Individuals. This Law should Consider the Following Situations: 1. Any Individual Has a Right to Ask Questions Related to the Business of the office/company where this person came as a customer; 2. No any employee of any business should have a right to call the Police in order to do not allow / prohibit the customer asking questions related to this particular business; 3. No any employee of any business should say to anyone anything offensive as, for example, I was said by one of the paramedics of Falmouth (John...), who was one of the employees of Maine's Emergency Ambulance team, who used completely inappropriate expression while talking with me in my apartment after I called the Ambulance (having lightheadness and very bad iron defficency)... 4. In case if the employee does not know how to answer the customer's question, the employee has to call the supervisor/manager, but not ask the customer to leave the office/store..

Zero Point electrical generation has been demonstrated by several physicists and electrical engineers including Nikola Tesla, Thomas Bearden and colleagues, and by Adam Douglas Trombley. The environmental movement has focused on solar, hydro, wind, ocean wave motion. Zero Point technology has been ignored, yet is exponentially more efficient than any other alternative.

We the people deserve accurate media. Campaign ads that are outright Lies should not be allowed to air. Reporters need to call out obvious lies whenever they arise. There are too many bold lies told by Mitt Romney, his ads and the GOP. Lies are not news. Letting Lies go unchallenged hurts the integrity of any election.
