  • Offshoring Romney-style
    e are still in the dark about Romney's taxes and off-shore accounts. What is he hiding and why. How can he hope to be president of the United States while shelteing his money overseas to avoid paying taxes? Shameful!!!

  • Disallow employers to run credit reports on employees for job placement
    This petition is to stop employers from running credit checks on employees for future employment. This is important because so many people have been out of employment and had no means of keeping up with some accounts. With employment, people are able to work on their credit and clean up negativity on credit reports.

  • Affordable Health Care Mandate is not a Tax on the Middle Class
    Get the word out to voters that while Chief Justice Roberts called the upheld mandate a tax, it only pertains to those who do not buy health insurance which will be much more affordable. It is not a tax on everyone. In fact, we all pay extra in our federal taxes to help pay for those who are uninsured. Voters need to call their congressmen/ women and senators and tell them to stop portraying this mandate in a negative way that taxes everyone. It is a lie to make this ruling look bad.

  • Brice For President 2016
    We need change in America. Washington needs an overhaul. We are feeding and housing people in and from other countries while we leave our own hungry on the streets. Enough is enough. Let's let Washington know that we are fed up. I will never make it Washington. But please sign my petition so that I can send it to the powers that be. We are broke because we are trying to spread democracy to countries that hate us. We all have enough debt. This must end!

  • New Stimulus: Metric System Conversion
    So many studies show that a government backed stimulus is an effective solution to a slow economy. Converting the US to the metric system would be a massive undertaking and would create jobs in all sectors.

  • Make the oil companies public utilities.
    Since it takes about $20 a barrel to get oil in America and most of it is gotten now on public land, which means it's America's oil !!! Then it's sold on the open market for over a hundred dollars a barrel and obscene profits. I purpose we make the oil companies a public utility. Then when we can sell American oil here in America at say, $25-$30 a barrel and it'll help balance the cost of Opec oil. Over the course of years, we'll buy all the stock back at it's current price, so no one will lose any money. THAT WILL stimulate the economy and create jobs. For those that say the government can't run things effectively, look at Social Security: "...is an extremely efficient program, with administrative costs equaling only 0.6 percent of retirement and survivors benefits." Now you show me any company, in any field, that can run it's business that lean. Government can be an effective force for the good of its people, and the benefits of the oil industry should be put to that purpose and not the few fat cats profiteers obscene profits. Remember, it's America's oil on public lands.

  • End the apathy and stand up for your rights!
    Too many people are swayed by the retoric (the nonsence and lies) coming out of the mouths of politicians and the big-money corporations...people like the oil companies who are still trying to convince us that what they sell does not harm our enviornment. The sad thing is, that many people WANT to believe it because it is easier to go with the status quo. That, and people have been raised to respect their elders and their government. Too bad that they didn't KNOW the lies then. But...we have to start somewhere. I'm sure you've heard the saying, "power corrupts." Well, it hasn't just corrupted, it's created monsters. I am asking that people investigate for the truth. There is no perfect political party, or person for that matter. But look at ethics. Who cares more about "THE PEOPLE" than "THE MONEY" and "THE POWER?" Then do something...don't just sit back and say, "It's all broken, I'm just not going to vote for anyone." BECAUSE THAT IN ITSELF IS THEIR WEAPON...TO HAVE YOU NOT VOTE! And do what you can. STAND UP FOR YOUR BELIEFS. The republican congress has done nothing for the American citizens except do everything they can to hinder progress under President Obama's presidency. They say he has not done anything, and actually BLAME HIM for for economy! Mr. Bush spent 8 years destroying the economy by giving a tax cut to corporations to outsource jobs and by taking us into a war in Iraq which was a major lie and for which he should have been impeached. Things snowball...they do not happen overnight. You can not clean up a county's whole economy (and all the other major problems we have) in 3 years or 10 years. You first have to turn the train around, which doesn't happen in 5 minutes. But this is another of their marketing schemes...to destroy Obama. I do not agree with everything President Obama has done, but I can tell you that he is a world of difference from Romney! If Romney should by some possibility become President, I believe that this country will be so destroyed that we may not ever see the light.
