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?

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.

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.

In 2006, our son Willie Rogers, at the age of 19, was wrongfully accused and sentenced to 12 years in one of Ohio's prisons. Willie was a good kid, no criminal record, always worked, and was in college. His accusers are out of prisons, enjoying their life. Willie is still in prison as of this date August 7, 2012. His family started an organization called "Partners With Justice."

The City of Joliet is trying to force us to get rid our three backyard hens. A small flock of hens will produce eggs to feed a family, but they are pets and should not be classified by zoning ordinances as "farm animals."

Following the recent events in Montana, It is time to call on Congress to pass Federal legislation to classify all bashings (be they due to sexual orientation, religion, race, gender or any other reason) as HATE CRIMES, and make them carry maximum penalty. Only then will things change for minorities.

My petition would be about gun control, particularly the ease with which mentally ill people get weapons. We need a much stronger screen for a person's mental state. I am concerned because I have a severely mentally ill person in my family who periodically has hallucinations about plots against him. I think mental health professionals could develop a stronger screening program to block these individuals from gaining weapons. When I hear about mass shootings I don't think hate crimes, I think mentally ill people with weapons.

BY defunding (in the middle of the night ) planned parenthood, N.C. legislature has denied people with limited incomes, teens, and the uninsured the ability to obtain health care. For many, Planned Parenthood is their only access to health care.
