• Stop the city's parking meter people from raping the citizens wallets
    Bring parking fines down to a reasonable amount per infraction. 20$ is plenty to detour people from forgetting to pay their meters. Save large fines if need be for fire hydrants and handicap spaces. Everything else is just a way to tax the people without having it approved by the people.

  • Please help eliminate agesism and sexism in the workplace!
    I had to put up with "we don't hire women" after graduation from college, and then put up with rape in the workplace after I became a pioneering Art Director in an ad agency. My skills are of great value; please don't force me into homelessness by deliberately depriving me of my Civil Rights!

  • Lift the Social Security Income Cap
    Social Security taxes only apply to the first $106,000.00 of income. Lifting this cap would: 1) increase fairness, 2) make social security solvent, 3) help the elderly and disabled, by not cutting their benefits, and 4) stimulate the economy, when recipients are able to pay their bills.

  • Make the EPA test Ethanol E-10 MPG
    Ethanol, at low percentages such as E-5 (5% Ethanol) up to E-15 (15% Ethanol) causes MPG in most cars to drop about 12% to 20%. Thata costs the USA up to $200 B each year! Why? Because E-10 has about .5% water, its Ethanol clumps and burns first, destroying the car's use of real gas. We DEMAND that the EPA test our real "at-the-pump" gas that we are forced to use.

  • Petition to Reform the United States Congress
    Members of Congress have made a very nice deal for themselves and representing their own interests and the interests of the very wealthy and well to do. Other than line their own pockets, the U.S. Congress seems to accomplish less and less while spending more and more. The United States House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate are BROKEN. This is how you fix them.

  • Citizen Imposed Congressional Term Limits
    The Supreme Court in its rulings held that money is speech and bestowed personhood upon nonhuman entities such as corporations. These decisions have effectively ceded the control of the governmental processes to a minority economic class and administered a coup de grâce to majority rule. The concentration of the national wealth, due in major part to these decisions, has resulted in a dangerous concentration of political power.

  • It's Time to Break-up Public Enemy #1 Goldman Sachs
    Goldman Sachs has become the most powerful institution in America wielding overwhelming authority over our political system, our economy and the world's financial markets. It is immoral and untenable that a private entity should ever hold America in its grasp as does Goldman Sachs. This tyranny must end.

  • California State Bank
    California should have a State Bank [like North Dakota] to generate money for the State and support economic activity in the State. Large sums of money go through the State Treasury and the State could save money and generate income by having that money managed by a State Bank as well as accepting deposits and providing banking services to Californians at presumably cheaper rates than Commercial banks.
