Holding the State of New Mexico accountable for a selfish and poor decision of confiscating eight of my horses after I invested every bit of energy and resources I could to provide educational and personal opportunities to The Albuquerque westside community of appreciation and understanding through horsemanship pleasure and trailrides trainings. The lifestock board conficated the animals because I did not have any proof of ownership at the time when I was feeding them and after I proved ownership a week later I was expected to pay $800.00 to get my horses back.

With all the talk of voter registration and ID requirements across the country, a lot of Indiana voters may be confused about what the voting rules are—or might even think they're disqualified when they're not. We need to ensure that voters know all of the new rules and whether or not they are eligible to vote. We also need to pressure our state legislature to be sure that voters know the laws and no eligible voter is unable to vote.

Why are our troops committing suicide daily. What can we do to help them. The President and Congress MUST do something NOW.

According to research studies and legislative laws, an individual who injures and/or kills another individual with an automobile or any other vehicle can only recieve a maximum of a four year sentence. The current laws pertaining to hit and run drivers should be enhanced to prison time vs. probation. Any individual who leaves the scene of a hit and run accident involving another human person, whether driver is under the influence or not, should recieve an enhanced sentence.

The passenger side mirrors on cars that say "objects are closer than they appear", seem to be causing many near misses, if not actual accidents, by drivers who rely upon them to pull in after passing, rather than using their rear view mirror. In the past two weeks I have been run off the road once and nearly off two other times by people who rely upon this false sense of distance. Friends have all reported similar experiences. At the very least it would seem that the NTSB should look at the safety factor of the use of these mirrors on the passenger side.. What was the purported benefit to them in the first place?

Through confidential sources, I've come to learn that these two brothers were set up by an foreign Intelligence Officer. They aimed to fight in Yoguslavia with the Bosnia and Hersechvina Forces against the Serb. The Intelligence Officer proposed to teach them armery and using war weapons in private classes. He set to take vidoe recordings for them carrying the weapons he brought to train them on. Have the video tapes he has presented as evidence against them been reviewed and translated by a neutral entity, all conversations would reveal the truth of my claims.

The State of Illinois is the only state in this Country that does not recognize the rights of Violent Crime Victims and recently a effort by a organization call Marsy's Law made attempt to get Marsy's Law on our Illinois ballot, that would open the door for violent crime victims to have a say. There is a urgent need for us to sign and circulate this petition, so we can have a say in our own lives.

Most of the 50% who have managed to put away some retirement savings - not counting the top 1-2% - have these savings or investments in an IRA or a 401K. Money that we draw out is then taxed at the higher ordinary income tax rate - even if it all that money was invested for the long term in the types of risky investments that otherwise are rewarded with lower capital gain tax rates.. The top 1-2% percent have most of their money (as in 95-99%) where they pay no federal income tax or the lower capital gains rate. They use municipal bonds and Real Estate for investment and pay no tax or capital gains taxes – maybe a generation later – after they avoid any income tax. Fair is fair and it’s time for a level playing field. Those over 65 – below some income level say $100,000 and $200,000 (to get a lot of upper middle but still not wealthy savers) when withdrawing money to live on should see the first 5-6% taxed at a capital gains rate - the lower rate in all cases. This is simply fair and levels the playing field - and will encourage more of us to save for retirement. It is pure capitalism - but crony capitalism rules have created a situation where the IRAs and 401Ks not really used by the 1-2-3% are marketed to the rest of us – and then we are over taxed just as we start to use the money to pay the bills when we retire. Ask Congress to pass a law that for those below some income level – the first 5% annual withdrawal from an IRA or 401K (Middle and Upper Middle America’s savings location) not be pay the higher income tax then that of the 1-2-3%. Simple enough – set the rate at the capital gains rate or half that persons or families’ income tax rate.
