Abolish Corporate Personhood
If We the People are sovereign, we must control the government. Corporations are created and chartered by the government which, acting on behalf of We the People, gives corporations privileges, not rights. Neither the government, without the conse... continue reading
Support strong financial regulations!
Wall Street is its own worst enemy. It should have welcomed new financial regulation as a means of restoring public trust. Instead, it's busily shredding new regulations and making the public more distrustful than ever. The Street's biggest lobby... continue reading
Support the OWS Movement
The fact is that economic inequality and injustice have crossed the threshold of tolerance by the People of America. Unfortunately our voices are drowned out by powerful Corporate America, and SCOTUS gave them unrestricted rights to interfere wit... continue reading
Global corporations act like traitors
The American based global corporations have become too big, and no longer serve the best interests of the American people. These global corporations, while claiming corporate personhood, evading taxes, and heavily influencing our politics, are se... continue reading

Pass the Financial Speculations Tax
The large deficit came about because the housing bubble, which was fueled by Wall Street excesses, crashed the economy. Yet, we are constantly being told by politicians from President Obama to Tea Party Republicans that we have a problem of out-of... continue reading
Set Siege to Wall Street
If I were president, I would end all the wars, bring the troops home, and set them to siege Wall Street. The real root cause of our nation's economic problems is our domination by Wall Street. It is too entrenched to root it out, except by force... continue reading
Refute the Outrageous Lies of the GOP
We beg of you to reject extortion attempts by the GOP, and stand up to the big money backed bullies. The working people depend upon you to protect us! Do not cave! We fear we are on the threshold of fascism, where the corporations have merged wit... continue reading
