Members of congress are able to make large profits in the stock market. The average american would get prison time, the members of congress get rich. Not to mention the possible security issues that may come up, because a congress person is thinking about their interest, not the interests of the U.S.A.

Governor Paul LePage is trying to push a bill through the Maine State Legislature that would slash the DHHS budget by $220 million, leaving 65,000 low-income and disabled Mainers with no health insurance, and decimating programs and services that work. Mainers have been fighting these cuts loud and strong, and it is having an impact. But we need to keep up the pressure. By signing this petition, you are letting your representatives know that these cuts are just not acceptable. In Maine, we believe in taking care of each other, and we believe that when people have access to needed healthcare services it keeps our state strong.

Kayak, rather than standing up to hatred, promoted it when it heeded the call of an activist group to stop advertising on the show All-American Muslim because "the show profiles only Muslims that appear to be ordinary folks." It's not too late for Kayak to reverse its actions and take a stand against hatred. Please support our effort to encourage Kayak to take these steps and play its role in fostering a society that treats all groups equally and with respect.

Wisconsin Supreme Court Michael Gableman has a long-documented history of unethical conduct. Now, he is certifiably a pay-for-play patsie. It is time to call "lies" lies, and for the appearance of impropriety to be given due respect in the evaluation of a judge's fitness for duty.

Facebook is currently in the practice of violating the state laws of 45 states that allow woman to Breastfeed in public, this includes businesses. Facebook is a business and should also have to conform to these laws.

Congress should take a pay cut equal to the cuts they want unemployed and medicare recipients to take.

The recent rejection of the payroll tax cuts/unemployment benefits by the House. And the attempts to tie it to the firing of government workers, Oil Industry Pipeline projects, cuts to health care and financial regulations funding, and other pet initiatives. They said we the 99% have no message or focus. Let’s give them one. Let’s come down hard on this one! I will gladly donate to media and ads that will take on this issue.

Corporations want to be treated like people in the eyes of the law. Ok, prosicute them like people too. Prosicute the ceo, the board of directors and their lawyers. Lock them up if guilty. Fining them is a joke.

The 1% think they own America, AND THAT WE CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. Let's show them the power of the 99%! Starting in January let's pledge to BOYCOTT 1 Bank (BankAmerica); 1 Airline (USAirways); 1 Retailer (Walmart); 1Drugstore (Walgreens); 1 Political Party (Republican); until the tax inequities are resolved (new taxes on the 1%) and cuts to education, the environment, and job creation bills are restored.

I think I have a partial and easy solution to the housing crisis. Until we fix the housing crisis in CA, Nevada, AZ and Florida, the economy will not recover.

There is far too much incentive for Congresspeople to provide special treatment to special interests at the expense of ordinary Citizens, and this problem has become so great that it is more important than having people "experienced" within the political system. A two-term limit will significantly reduce this incentive, resulting in a Congress that is much more focused on constructive problem-solving for the largest number of Citizens.
