The lending institutions that are performing the foreclosures do not have to pay property taxes. They pass it on to us. I believe the businesses performing the foreclosures should have to pay the outstanding property taxes. This would make foreclosing less desirable so the lending institutions would work harder to help work things out. It would also help to bring down the housing costs as the foreclosing institutions would want to sell the foreclosed properties in order to not pay for more property taxes. This would also help the state by getting the taxes paid.

Republicans are distorting the facts regarding the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The absolute truth is that every American deserves access to affordable, quality health coverage, and currently 18% of Alaskans have no insurance, and many more are underinsured. For both of these demographics, one accident or illness could result in financial catastrophe. Obamacare includes the largest middle-class tax cut for health care in history. According to the independent Congressional Budget Office, 19 million people will receive tax credits worth an average of about $4,800 each to help them afford health care. These tax credits will finally put health insurance within reach for millions of American families. Around 1 percent of people—those who can afford to buy coverage but instead choose to opt out, shifting their costs to the rest of us—will pay a penalty. The Supreme Court acknowledged yesterday that this penalty will be charged through the tax code—but that doesn’t change its purpose of ensuring everyone who can afford insurance buys it, or its effect of lowering costs for everyone. Before Obamacare, insurance companies had free rein to arbitrarily cap and cancel coverage, and they could waste our premiums on overheads and big bonuses for CEOs. With Obamacare, there will now be clear rules of the road to give patients and doctors more control over health care. These rules will make sure that you and your doctor—not your insurance company, and certainly not a Washington bureaucrat—have control over your health. If you like the insurance you have, you can keep it. The only thing that’s changed is that your coverage is stronger. Here’s how: • If you had a lifetime limit (and about 60 percent of employer-based plans did), it’s been lifted. • If you have a child under the age of 26, they can stay on your plan. • Insurance companies can no longer discriminate against children with pre-existing conditions. • Starting in 2014, insurance companies will no longer be able to deny anyone insurance based on pre-existing conditions, helping up to 129 million Americans get the care they need. • Insurance companies will no longer be able to charge women more than men for the exact same coverage. • 54 million Americans already have access to better preventive services, free of charge. • If you get sick, your insurance company can’t drop your coverage, and if they deny you a treatment, the law makes sure you have a chance to appeal. Health care costs have been going up for decades—that’s one of the reasons President Obama fought to pass the Affordable Care Act. Obamacare makes targeted changes to hold costs down. The President started by taking on the insurance companies. As he said yesterday, the law ensures that insurance companies spend 80 percent of your premium dollars on your health care, not administrative costs or CEO bonuses. If they don’t follow that rule, they have to send you a rebate. This month, more than 12 million Americans will receive over $1 billion in rebate checks, and we’re all seeing lower premiums because of it. The law also takes on waste in our health care system. Let’s take just one example: We spend billions of dollars every year treating people for infections they get while they are in the hospital. The health care law helps hospitals take simple but necessary steps to prevent infections. These types of reforms will save up to $35 billion and 60,000 lives. Learn the truth about The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, then demand Governor Parnell implements it for Alaska.

Having underground power lines, as do many civilized countries, would provide for protection against storms and would prevent the endless strings of costly repairs, economic damage, human suffering and lives lost. A federal project to kick start the process nationwide would provide an economic boost, create thousands of jobs and help secure our country. Besides, it would look nicer.

Whose going to cry for the little boy inside of Our Children? Who’s going to speak on our children behalf? He being the boy that the justice system here in Gerogia is legally claiming he is considered a man at the tender age of 17. What 17 year old can even maturely think for himself? Medical Studies states the brain does not begin to resemble that of an adult until the early 20s. Georgia Law 21 years old buy liquor 19 years old to buy cigarettes 18 years old to get a tattoo 18 years old to access clubs 18 years old before you can vote 18 years old before you can be evicted from your parent’s home With a 30 day notice But at 17 years old is consider an adult for any crimes, whether misdemeanor or felony THESE NUMBERS DOES NOT EQUATE Appropriately A 17 year old exhibits actions and mind set of a 15 year old. I WILL HAVE TO CRY FOR HIM WILL YOU? Who is willing to hear my son cry? Who’s going to speak for him? He being the boy, being the man society try to make him, cannot speak for himself. He cannot speak for himself in this unjust Justice System that is in place, which is effecting, affecting and infecting OUR children and OUR families. 1. Let’s take back our children. Take back our right to discipline. 2. Let's ’s take back our right to pray in schools 3. Let's put a stop to the Enslaved environment [jail] is a system that is monopolizing off these kids ignorance and monopolize of their families as well. 4. Let's fight for the right to speak on OUR childrens behalf in the Justice System until he reachs the age of 21. We currently [in the State of good olde Georgia cannot speak for, speak to or defend the child at 17 year old except with Legal Paid Representation. A public Defender will not speak to a parent if the child is 17 years old, yet the National Medical Association cleared describe a physical Man front frontals does not even start to mature until approximately age 21 [no one will speak to you concerning your child, in Georgia, not the public defender, not the District Attoneys, not the police, not the courts, NO ONE IN THE JUSTICE SYSTEM, using the age limit excuse] THIS HAS TO BE CHANGED. These young men do not understand the Legal Language, some cannot even read for themselves, let alone understands when they are signing their lives away based on what the System tells them. Not what is always Legally the right decision for that young man to make. Some of our children has signed their lives away. 5. Let's fight for the right that a legimate family that is inquiring on their love one should have the right to do so without being harassed, by those that have the POWER over those that are incarcerated. 6.

Getting the governor to commit to implementing the Affordable Care Act in a timely and responsible manner.

It time to say enough is enough to those Radical congress members who are spending their whole three years fighting to take away health care benefits from Middle class American Its about time we stand up against these radicals who's main objective is to deny us the opportunity to have health insurance for our families, but they are enjoying the best health care system in world with their families. We the tax payer deserve the right to enjoy the American dream.

Our Congressional Representatives choose their healthcare plans from a menu of "gold standard" health insurance plans. Let's demand that our elected US Congressional Representatives choose from the same plans available to their constituents. For example, my 26 year old daughter who lives in Utah in not eligible for insurance because she was born with a congenital anomaly. If a Congressional Representative from Utah has a congenital anomaly, should that representative have insurance that is not available to their constituent?

Right to life is impossible if a person does not have reasonable, affordable access to medical care. Without quality health care insurance, this access is grossly limited at best. Years of health and financial problems have left many in this nation either prematurely deceased, unnecessarily ill, and/or financially ruined. Wisconsin has already lost valuable time due to the Governor's refusal to follow the recommendations/requirements of the Affordable Health Care Act and he is still refusing to do so. How many more will die, become unnecessarily ill, and financially ruined while this delay continues? For those people, should the legal system allow recourse?

Even after we get money and corporations out of politics, we will still be stuck with choosing between the "lesser of two evils" unless we adopt an extraordinarily simple change to go from our current "Plurality Voting" method to one called "Approval Voting". The Problem For example as a Progressive in 2000 you might prefer Ralph Nader over Al Gore. But you know that voting for Nader could cause Gore to lose so you must vote for Gore (whether you see him as the "lesser of two evils" or simply less desirable) to stop Bush winning or vote your true preference and risk Bush getting elected. The Solution Approval Voting allows you to vote Yes or No for every candidate on the ticket. So vote Yes for BOTH Nader AND Gore, while voting No for Bush. You do not have to compromise your values and you do not in any way aid Bush in winning. The Purpose of this Petition The purpose of this petition is to get as many organizations as possible to educate their members about Approval Voting and to demand it. Ultimately we want support from organizations across the spectrum; non-partisan, civic, professional, issue-oriented, Green Party, Libertarians, non-profits, NGOs, corporations and ultimately even the Democratic and Republican parties. Let's start with MoveOn.org spearheading the effort because many members here are opposed to preemptive war, murder by Drone, bailouts for financial criminals etc., regardless of which political Party is abetting the crime.

The Affordable Care Act was passed by Congress, signed into law by President Obama, and now has been upheld by a ruling from the United States Supreme Court. Why, then, are South Carolina officials like Governor Nikki Haley, Attorney General Alan Wilson, and their cohort of state Republican leaders still trying to stall implementation of the Affordable Care Act?

Because voters only think about more goverment, ask them what happened to their 401k or their portfolio when the banks almost shut this Country down.
