• Allowing Our Children From Single Parents In Low Income Families To Stay In School
    The nations low income families who have children in single parent homes are forced to consider having their children go to work to contribute to the household expenses instead of finishing school so that they can become self sufficient and move out on their own to take care of themselves and becoming productive citizens. We need to petition the Government to allow for college students passing their classess to have a stable home that is not going under to take care of their children housing, meals and transporation costs.

    A nationwide petition to amend the constitution that all members of congress both the senate and congress can not serve more than two consecutive terms, just like the president. That will go a long way to stopping the influence of big corporations from owning our government. Then our representatives will spend time doing their job instesd of constantly raising money.

  • Fix Social Security with CBO option 2 or 3
    "Fixing" Social Security. This would fix Social Security essentially forever. It would cost the worker an extra forty cents per week each year. But avoid benefit cuts, increases in retirement age, turning SS into welfare by "taxing the rich." And shut up the Liars about Social Security creating "huge deficits."

  • Eliminate the banks from Student Loans System
    The government loans low interest rate money to the banks and asks them to loan it to students. The money comes with a guarantee that if the student defaults the government will repay the banks in full. Even though there is no risk to the banks from this transaction, they profit by charging students high interest rates (up to 8%). Canada, by comparison, loans the money directly to students and offers an interest rate of approximately 1%. The Canadian system benefits the students and the taxpayers. The US system benefits the banks at the expense of the student and the taxpayers. The US system is unfair to both students and taxpayers. We urge you to pass legislation to eliminate the banks from the student loan system.

  • Hey, Congress: It's Time We Revamped the Supreme Court!
    The Supreme Court is supposed to be a non-biased, bi-partisan judiciary capable of dealing with the most critical issues facing Americans today. This court, possibly more than any other in history, has shown they are nothing more than an embarrassingly biased group of political infants. This is simply unacceptable.
