Rather than our government paying other countries Interest on our debt, let's issue government bonds That go directly to pay down the deficit. Then US citizens Would earn a decent interest rate & pump money into our Economy instead of overseas. Even if it's only 2% Interest, guaranteed government bonds that Reduce the deficit is a win for all Americans!

Macy's keeps attaching a fee for "credit card protection" to my credit card. For the second time I called to take it off my account.

Governor Cuomo is closing the only long term psychiatric Hospital in Brooklyn and sending a little over half of the patients and families to Staten Island. The other 115 beds are being closed forcing the other patients to be kicked out and possibly will be on the trains and the streets of Brooklyn. Kingboro services patients with a long history of being severely and persistently mentally ill, as well as forensinc patients. The South Beach Psychiatric Hospital is over 21/2 hours a way. Not to speak on the 650 employees whom could be jobless as well! Please help! It is Brooklyn who will suffer! The Kingsboro property will be like a shelter instead! Spread the word they are doing it quietly! The streets of Brooklyn will suffer the loss of mental health care. You only have to watch the news to know not having this service in Brooklyn will effect the community adversely. There is an attack on Brooklyn's Mental Health Center and on Brooklyn residents with a long history of being severely and persistently mentally ill. Please support not closing Kingsboro Psychiatric Center and Down State Hospital/ Medical School.There is an attack on the mental health System. There is also a smear Campaign to justify steeling Brooklyn tax dollars and not providing the services to Brooklyn. It doesn't make sense for Brooklyn the biggest borough to send our Mentally ill families to Staten Island 2 1/2 hours away for treatment, they will quicker take to the streets!

Private campaign financing and electioneering, be it from corporations, unions, PACs or individuals, has skewed the nature and function of our government. This petition is to call on the United States to place an outright ban on private show-boat elections and to reform the system to a publicly funded, democratically based system of ballot initiative, petition and election rounds.

Candidates for public office should be limited to an equal amount of campaign funds and limited campaigning time.

Have you seen the videos of World Trade Center building 7 imploding? If not, you owe it to yourself and all those who died on 9/11 to learn what happened to this 47 story skyscraper. There has been a virtual media blackout of this critically important event so you will have to get on the net and do a search for WTC 7. This is not a conspiracy theory, 19 hijackers is a conspiracy theory. This is a building collapse theory.

NYS Governor Andrew Cuomo continually talks about improving education in the state. All the while he and the State Education Department are tearing the public education system apart piece by piece. By adding costly, unnecessary mandates and cutting funding, schools are finding it impossible to provide the "sound basic education" students are entitled to as per the NYS Constitution. The Legislature needs to stand up to Governor Cuomo and State Ed to stop their bully tactics and reinstate local control.

Since the 1980s, corporate deregulation has made it easier for big businesses to merge and buy each other out, causing thousands of layoffs and undermining market competition. Anti-trust legislation would force these mega-corporations to break up into smaller companies, ensuring that none would become 'too big to fall.' The United States government needs to take action if we want to put the economy back on its feet.

High Cost of Health Care

Indefinite detention of US citizens deprives us of due process otherwise established by our Constitution.

My petition is about improper foreclosure. I understand that thousands of people have been victimized. Move-on members should care because laws have been blatantly broken and the culprits not only refuse to accept culpability but are busy trying to bury the issue. Will these reckless villains and enemies of Society buy their way out of this fiasco?

The recent spike in power bills from American Electric Power and other distributors who work with AEP has many small businesses, schools, and non-profit organizations across Ohio wondering if they'll be able to stay in business. They came to a deal with the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio that was not beneficial to anyone but large corporations in Ohio and AEP.Part of the cause of the doubling rates is due to American Elecbetric Power giving large corporations and manufacturers discounts, while smaller businesses, who do not consistently use a great amount of energy throughout the year, have to carry the expense.
