Thousands of studies now confirm that pulsed radio frequency microwave radiation from wireless technology breaks dna, damages sperm, causes cancer and neurological problems, damages the blood brain barrier, etc.

Everyone is aware that kids are being over-sexualized by video, radio, TV and movies. What about those adult-themed mags at 7-11 - that always seem to be right at kids-eye level? Do kids need this exposure? Please, Mr. DePinto, insist that magazines with adult-oriented covers are moved to a higher rack, where kids can't be so readily exposed to them, inculcating them with images that promote sexual stereotypes.

First, manufacturing has been driven offshore due to cost issues. second; there are only 3 things that create the first nickel for the rest of the US jobs to feed off of; being, the farmer plants and harvests food, the manufacturer that created and produced a product, and resource drillers or diggers that keep the cars going and reduce our dependence on someone else. Manufacturing losses are caused by overtaxation of the corporations, rigid rules that require a multitude of people to keep up with and document, and no or little charge for other countries without those issues to import goods to America.

After years of no adjustments in the cost-of-living increase for Social Security recipients, the one done this year is causing us to lose foodstamp aid almost equal to that COLA! One example is a foodstamp loss of from $155/mo to $129/mo because of an increase in SS of $32./mo. That makes poor constantly become more poor! Have congress stop penalizing foodstamps for COLA!

Our country's future hinges on whether or not we can make the transition to local, renewable energy sources now, not in some far-distant nebulous future. Our economy, infrastructure, and continued military strength require energy resources that cannot be met fast-dwindling supplies of fossil fuels.

The decision in Citizen's United vs. FEC has given control of our electoral process over to corporations and special interests and taken it away from the people. We need a constitutional amendment to undo the decision. Sign if you agree.

We the people of the United States of America deserve the right to make more decisions concerning our lives as american citizens. So I suggest more questions be included on the voting ballot such as, How do we feel about the judicial process......should parts of it be rehauled? or Do we want Universal Health care ? We should make our voices heard on the ballots not leave it up to the Congress and Senate.

As long as Corporate Lobbying and Citizens United exists, there can never be a democracy that serves the people. We've seen it all before, a nuclear power plant is leaking tritium into the city's water supply and the power plant's neighborhoods are all coming down with cancers and dying. Or maybe BP killed the community's livelihood and their chemical dispersants have made everyone that worked on the clean up ill by taking the oil spill out of sight and mind, but leaving it polluting the gulf. Or maybe oil and gas fracking is leaving hexavalent chromium polluting a community's water and benzene polluting their air and leaving everyone sick and the land dying. There are countless examples, but the result is often the same. The laws protect the corporations. The companies deny liability and argue out of fines and fees in court. All because lobbying creates a breach of liability for the corporations. Corporations are not people. Corporations shouldn't be allowed to be so far above the people. The U.S. was not founded as a feudal system with corporations on top. We used to have things like anti-trust laws to protect us from corporate greed run amok. It's time to bring that kind of people's protection from corporate greed back.

Too many of our young people are drowning in debt. Some will never be debt free at this pace. Education in this country shouldn't cost more than a house. At the growing rate of this economy, they won't be able to afford either.
