My Issues
Our pensions

Gas:$5 in 2012
Do you all WANT to see our economy fail? Is this all YOUR way of attempting to ensure a Republican win next election? I've heard all the excuses so far: China/India, the closing of Northeast refineries(low profit margins), slow release of off-... continue reading
Oil Prices Skyrocketing

Congress, you've blown your last chance
Congress, you had the chance to "do right" by your country; NOT yourselves, the special interests, the 2%, the REST of the country. You HAVEN'T shown the need to come back in session while the world crumbles around us. You're probably sitting, la... continue reading
Solve things NOW! Vacation, LATER!
