• Wall Street Investigation and Monies for Nebraska
    We want our Attorney General to join with the Attorney General of NY, Eric Schneiderman, in the investigation of Wall Street Banks and to prosecute those that were responsible for our current economic condition. We ask him and our Senators to make sure those, in Nebraska, who suffered loss due to fraudulent practices, get a fair share of money or receive help in renegotiating their mortgage.

  • Ask Walmart to Carry more American Made Products
    Instead of Walmart demanding that companies produce products cheaper in China, they should demand that American companies produce them as cheap as they can in America. So please sign this petition.

  • Demand Real Wall Street Accountability
    President Obama's administration has abjectly failed to prosecute the top Wall Street and bailed-out bankers who devastated our economy with fraud. Now he's claiming to get tough with a new prosecution unit, but it's got the same failed leadership. We need President Obama to get real about prosecuting the people who wrecked our economy.

  • I want to save my home!
    The banks robo-signed my adjustable rate loan and when I became disabled, they didn't want to give me a loan modification that I could afford, rather, they want to foreclose.

  • National Sabbatical Plan
    America has more people wanting work than it has jobs, thanks in part to automation. Let's take up the slack by giving workers a sabbatical. I suggest a flexible system so people could choose when to redeem their sabbatical credits. The length of the credits would depend on the ratio of workforce to jobs and the sabbatical pay rate would depend on the economy and the individual's reported income taxes; unemployment insurance would be renamed a sabbatical tax. Turn unemployment into something that is earned instead of spurned. Let young workers work before they get to take a break. Almost every business or institution already offers vacations to their workers; simply expand the concept.

  • 2 Horrible Banking Experiences
    I actually have 2 bank stories...one involving he loss of my residence, and the other regarding the bank automatically attaching an automatic overdraft to my account, and continuing to honor checks that inadvertently overdrew my account and continuing to honor checks until I was significantly overdrawn and then tacking on 'inhumane' fees and fees on top of those fees....although I informed them, when I found out from the bank that I was in significant arrears, that my understanding of a 'debit account' was that if/when the account reached zero, nothing that came in would be paid and a check would bounce therefore.....apparently they have some fine print in their agreement that refutes this! Be that as it may or may not, this was just prior to the government cracking down on the policy of 'milking' overdrawn customers with LAYERS of fees and penalties. I sent a letter protesting this potentially fraudulent practice of intentionally allowing accounts to develop serious arrears so that they can 'milk' them to the CEO of US BANK.. He did not answer and I wasn't able to get anything resolved, except discovering that I was blackballed from opening another bank account. I believe that this practice is illegal and the whole banking experience, like this one, for the average guy is intimidating! The loss of my house regards, among other things, either inaccurate, or no appraisal's..horribly inaccurate and over-valued estimates of property value, and bank collusion with mortgage companies to 'create' numbers, at any cost, that will work to acquire the fraudulent loan! I could go on and on......I believe that my house was stolen from me!

  • Insurance equality for Chiropractic Care!
    As a practicing Doctor of Chiropractic Healthcare, I know first hand that the vast majority of Americans (especially the military veterans returning home) need Chiropractic Care. It is also blatantly obvious that most of those same people would take advantage of those benefits, if; covered the same as seeing any other type of doctor.

  • Save the MBTA
    The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority is proposing changes that would raise ticket prices by up to 43%, eliminate all weekend and late-night train services, cut bus routes, and affect nearly 100 million riders a year. Not only is this a prohibitive raise in prices, especially for elderly and young riders, but local tourism will be devastated by the loss of service and many cities who built affordable housing near train stations will be severely impacted. On top of this, thousands of citizens will be unable to get to work via public transportation, leading to increased traffic and pollutants in numerous communities. The MBTA and State Government need to work harder to investigate alternative methods of funding and find new revenue projects, as well as exploring other restructuring options in order to save commuters and their communities the financial and environmental impact of these crippling measures.

  • Boehner Must Resign
    John Boehner has invested a lot of money in Canadian Oil Companies and is pushing to pass the Keystone XL Pipeline at any cost, including tying it to the next payroll tax cut extension. He has invested $365,000 in seven companies that would benefit from the Keystone Pipeline approval, setting himself up to reap great financial rewards from his investment. We are calling for his resignation. http://www.politicususa.com/en/john-boehner-keystone-scandal
