  • Tell GE and Mitsubishi NO to Fossil Fuels, YES to Solar and Wind Energy
    Behind our backs, the Air Quality Mgt Dist and State and Local Officials in the sun-drenched, wind-swept Palm Springs area have sold the health and well-being of its hundreds of thousands of residents to GE and Mitsubishi for $53 million, for the privilege of building Sentinel, a natural gas-burning power plant that will spew four times the legal amount of known carcinogens into the air, thus exacerbating climate change and global warming, and contaminating our fertile soil, our drinking water, the air we breathe. [CA Energy Commission, 2011, 478-pp report] We refuse to allow this to happen. This area has ideal conditions to place us #1 in the world for solar- and wind-produced energy. To that end, GE and Mitsubishi must spend their $100 millions to replace Sentinel with the most technologically advanced, state of the art solar- and wind-energy producing facilities!

  • "Cleaning Up the Mortgage Mess"
    A grave injustice has been fostered on the American public that was done under the watchful eye of several republican administrations and had its fulfillment under the administration of George W. Bush. The criminal acts that were committed that caused the cataclysmic upheaval of the world economy under the guise of fiscal responsibility. Since the Reagan administration the republicans perpetuated gross fiscal irresponsibility and in spite of the fact that President Clinton balanced the budget and left a surplus it was vacuumed up by President Bush and the reckless warmongering administration, plunged the nation into debt and countless lives have been sacrificed unnecessarily. Regulations that had been put in place for the banks was bypassed by the same banks creating financial institutions, mortgage brokerages that bypassed all the safeguards and recklessly rushed unsuspecting citizens into loans that would soon become nightmares and this mad rush cause the housing boom and bust. Instead of righting the wrong, the very criminals that created the situation were then given billions of dollars to fix their mess, which was tantamount to the fox guarding the hen house. The result of this fiasco was that the bonuses for executives continued and the financial institutions hired phone operators and gave them scripts and the homeowners who had been seduced by these same institutions were now being raped. The loans turned upside down quickly as the inflated home prices slid past previous lows and the maze of loan modifications destroyed any possibility of recovery. The value of my home went from 500,000 to less than 275,000 and although billions of dollars went to financial institutions to assist the homeowners, the trickle down effect never genuinely assisted the homeowner nearly as much as it benefited the institutions. Modifications were and still are a long and tedious process and few modifications were actually set up to benefit the home owner. If one third the money had gone to the direct assistance of the home owners, it would have stabilized the home market and the financial institutions also.

  • Less Government or Better Government
    Order is preferable to chaos, so government is necessary. However, when inefficient government exists, the people suffer. Let's create productivity and efficiency measures that are similar to corporate measurements. The conservative agenda is about Less Government. That's not the problem - more effective government is the problem

  • Stop wasting our American tax dollars on discrimination to our Original Americans END DOMA
    Its about discrimination against same sex couples who want to have the same rights as hetrosexual couples when they marry. Its about wasting our American tax dollars to discriminate against a minority group of people instead of using it to help Americans poor or help Americans get jobs or help kids get good education. DOMA uses their money for discrimination instead of helping the poor or helping with social justice or helping Americans get good jobs. That is a waste of our American tax dollars.

  • LEGALIZING UP TO 25 GRAMS OR LESS OF CANNABIS
    reduced the penalty for possessing 25 grams or less of marijuana to a non-criminal violation carrying a fine of no more than $100 for first-time offenders -- as long as the marijuana was in private possession and not in public view. I have seen some cities legalize marijuana up to an extent in order to save money since USA is in debt it does sound like a good idea.The human costs to each defendant charged with a misdemeanor are serious," said Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus R. Vance Jr., supporting Cuomo's proposal. "The simple and fair change proposed by Gov. Cuomo will help us redirect significant resources to the most violent criminals and serious crime problems, and, frankly, it is the right thing to do." is by Attorney Cyrus R. Vance Jr and it is true..

  • Let's finally get the Pentagon surveillance video from 9/11
    The Pentagon is one of the most protected and surveilled buildings in the world, yet the only video from 9/11 we have is a blurry image that shows no real evidence of any airplane hitting the building. Where are all the videos?

  • Outlaw PACs Today
    I am tired of seeing millions thrown into the election of Govenors, Senators, Congressional Representatives and most importantly our President. If big money continues to fund all of these elections, they might as well own the country. This is not what our founding fathers of this country wanted for us.
