Even before the Citizen United decision, special interests thoroughly corrupted our democracy to plutocratic rule. Mindful that some decent elected officials may also be swept away from government, the cleansing results would be beneficial to all citizens.

The greatest threat to American democracy is the 2010 Supreme Court decision banning limitations on corporate contributions to political campaigns in the name of free speach. The flood of corporate money has given corporations a megaphone to drown out the voice of the individual and thereby grants them ability to anoint our legislators and president.

The MOrmon Church is involved in politics on every level, from prop 8 to Senator Hatch's re election

Walmart is now implicated in a $24,000,000 bribery network to purchase site approvals in Mexico. One may argue that such approvals are "traditional" or "immoral," illegal or corrupting, but, IN ANY CASE, they are more than they're paying in America for the same kind of access. Shouldn't they pay us as much as they pay in Mexico? We, after all, have a lot more money!

Elm Street Development, which purchased the Clarksburg Town Center community for the price of one dollar, knowing there was an approved compliance plan in place that took over 7 years to negotiate, now says that they will not honor that compliance plan. We are calling on Elm Street to honor the compliance plan.

It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver. Mahatma Gandhi If this is true we are in a great depression. The prevalence of obesity has become more than a noticeable problem in our society and with childhood diabetes on the rise it is time to take action in becoming a healthier society. Americans want government help in paying for medication and subsidizing health care but why not set aside money to help people prevent from having a lot of problems that could easily have been prevented by education.

Last week the European Parliament Interest Group made a recommendation to the EU commission that complementary care be made part of their directive - for the EU to "actively support the greater integration of complementary and alternative medicine into the healthcare of EU citizens, especially with regards to the prevention and treatment of cancer". The World Health Organization has for many years incorporated it's recommendation to all world governments that they incorporate these alternative options into their existing health care systems. It is time for the US to adopt this directive. Americans spend billions of dollars out of pocket on these therapies, many of which have been studied and approved by the WHO. The integration of modern Western therapies and preventive and complementary medicine is an answer to out of control health care costs. The US outspends all other nations, with markedly inferior health outcomes. Change is needed, and we know what will move us forward. Incorporate proven alternative therapies into our insurance services.

California has a law that discriminates. Anyone that has ever been convicted of illegal drug sales, is disqualified from getting government help. No food. ( EBT ) No cash aid. This law is unfair and forces people that can't get jobs to turn back to illegal means to survive.

We can't go back to a time when victims of domestic violence had nowhere to turn. But that could happen if Republicans block re-authorization of the Violence Against Women Act. Tell them you want action now.
