War In Gaza
The Israel war is not against Gazan's or Palestinians, It's against Hama's, Iranian terrorists
and street gangs. People of Gaza refuse to denounce Hamas. They refuse to ask Hamas to give back
the hostages even after all the lives lost. If citizens in Gaza are going to keep a terrorist run government,
then Israel has the right to Conquer Gaza. It is the only way to get rid of the Iranian terrorists.
Woman in Gaza will have more rights living under the Israeli government and a better life. No country should give
the terrorists aid. All aid must be given to the Israel government not Hamas. Money giving to terrorists must be
confiscated and distributed by Israel. Both Israelis and Gazans can live together in new high rises
that are going to be built. Hamas is not planning to leave Gaza or go to Iran and Gazans can care less if an Iranian
terrorist group or street gang is running their government and for that reason, Gaza must be a city in Israel.

Mexico is Completely Responsible for the Border Crisis.
Without their participation we can't stop migrants from entering the US. We can only stop them
once they cross the border or that line and as soon as they do they qualify for
political asylum. We can't stop them on their side. Thats Mexico's responsibility.
They must control their side of the border especially if they're not Mexican citizens but foreigners trying to cross.
It's a national security breach and if Mexico won't patrol their own border, we must sanction Mexico or
raise tariffs to pay for more border guards not fences. Fences stop wildlife from crossing borders and cattle
being able to graze on both sides of the border. Our generation are tearing down walls not building them.
The Berlin wall, Israel Gaza wall, North and South Korea wall. Mexico has no intention of securing our border.
Their out of excuses. The only other thing we can do is cross the border into Mexico
illegally and make a one-mile buffer zone. The world knows that Mexico is refusing to patrol their own border and
foreigners all over the world are flooding the border to cross into the US. Some of these immigrants are
risking their lives to get to America. The term "boat people" used to bring a laugh for comedians,
now it's a derogatory term. Being on an overloaded homemade boat and not knowing how to swim. Thats horrific.
Thats pretty desperate for a meaningful job and a new life or way out of poverty.
Their fleeing a different kind of poverty, the kind even some low-income families don't understand
or take things for granted. Migrants who have traveled or walked a thousand miles to get to the border,
lose all their belongings halfway when they realize they can't carry anything anymore while crossing jungles and rivers.
Many arrive at the border traumatized, possessionless with little documentation and in need of shoes and clothing.
When a citizen is trapped in poverty and there's no way out, that's when your government must stand in, and their government has
failed them that's why they are coming here. America has learned if you help the people at the bottom they turn
around and help people at the top. These immigrants can't even get food stamps until they are processed.
Just identifying them and getting the documents they need to get American ID; s is a lot of work. If they apply for
green cards for them, it makes it even more difficult if they are homeless or have to move a lot and can't get mail.
They're in a strange country, don't speak English and have no idea where they are or being able to distinguish
between a hundred or a one-dollar bill. Sometimes it's better if they stay in the system until they
have all their legal documents and ID; s and get familiar with their new country and language. America
needs migrant workers to keep our economy growing strong. Their migration to the US is fueling the real estate
market. If a million immigrants come to America, they need a place to live. They will have to build 200,000 to 300, 000
homes and apartments. Thats a lot of jobs and housing starts. Also take note that Latin Americans are predominately Christian
and if we needed foreign workers Mexicans would be a good match.
And what do American employment agencies have against opening offices in
Latin America or have job fairs at Mexican convention centers? Certainly, it can help
alleviate some traffic at the border.

Please Eliminate the Taxable Earnings Cap on Social Security ($168,600)
America has protected the wealthy long enough. Why wouldn't you want millionaires and billionaires to pay
social security tax. They're exactly the ones that should be paying Social Security taxes. We must completely eliminate
the taxable earnings base which is now capped at $168,600. We have been protecting these billionaires
long enough. Social Security is more than just getting a monthly retirement check. Many who live above the
$168,600 threshold have adults and children with a disability.in their household and are better off treated in the
public service system. It pays for doctors, clinics, therapists, hospitals, case managers and nurses.
Don't forget about transportation and housing which all can add up to tens of thousands per year no matter how much
they make. They should be made to pay half the social security tax cost if they earn over $168,600 with no cap.
The cash retirement benefits can be capped at $168,600 based income instead. Vote to make anyone earning over $168,600
to have to pay half of the social security tax no matter how much they make with no way to write it off or
get out of paying the full amount. We have been protecting the wealthy long enough. Don't worry about their finances.
Worry about yours.- SSI and Social security is so much more than getting a monthly check.

High Crime in the City
There are so many convicted felons in Chicago or high crime cities that you
can't put them all in jail. You must concentrate on crime prevention. Don't give the crime a chance to happen in
the first place. Have you ever seen a police car covered in cameras used by traffic cops that also reads license plates.
If their Neiborhood is high crime, then you park camera cars in their Neiborhood's and corners of streets
or traffic lights. The higher the crime the more cameras are needed. You want these cameras visible or easy to see.
If they fail to report crime, then they have to "lose their right to privacy" and must also except
facial imaging. These camera cars or street cameras will cut down on crime knowing they're on camera.
If crime goes down, you can remove the cameras and they get their privacy back. Being on camera might make
the elderly feel safer.

Kick Butts - Cigarette Butts
Cigarette butts are the most littered product in the world. Their made of thousands of strands of plastic called,
cellulose acetate not fiberglass or cotton. Containing over 100 chemicals including lead and arsenic,
1 cigarette butt can pollute 250 gallons of water. Firemen hate cigarette butts. Trillions of cigarette butts end up
littering the earth every year. They are found in the stomachs of land and sea animals. There was a local drive
to get all store owners in the city to have ashtrays outside and it worked for a few months then they all disappeared.
Some smokers don't think butts are litter. The problem? They do not sell portable or pocket ashtrays
in the tobacco section of all stores leaving a smoker with no choice but to throw them down everywhere they go.
It should be mandatory that all stores that sell tobacco, sell portable or pocket ashtrays in plain view
in the tobacco section. Once someone starts using one and when they don't have their portable ashtray with them,
they start to get conscious of throwing down cigarette's butts. These portable or pocket ashtrays are
available in different sizes and shapes. It should be mandatory that all smokers carry one if they smoke
and if they are stopped by law enforcement with a cigarette in their hand, they can fine them
for not having a extinguisher device or portable ashtray but only if their stopped for another reason.
(Click this link to see samples of pocket ashtrays.)
(This is not an ad for amazon)
Cigarette manufacturers can encourage smokers to carry pocket or portable ashtrays and
they can make it a campaign even if we have to force cigarette manufacturers to participate

Please Support Mandatory Insurance on All Assault Rifles
There should be a 6-month waiting list
to buy assault rifles to eliminate impulse buying. That will give time for
someone who needs anger management time to cool down. It will also give time for background checks.
Another factor is insurance. You might have to pay a yearly fee. for liability insurance because the gun
is so dangerous, and accidents might not be covered by your homeowner insurance. Basically, the assault rifle
should have to be licensed and insured. You can have an age minimum, but no one wants to go 21 years of age to purchase.
Why not compromise and make the limit 20 years of age to buy the assault rifle. That way the buyer
won't be a teenager anymore " eighteen and nineteen ". and would be out of school for 2 years plus it would
still take 6 months to purchase the gun so that brings it to being out of school for 2 and a half years before
they can legally obtain an assault rifle. 18 19 -year-olds might have to be exempt if they're in the military.
But if they are in the military, they obviously have gun safety training. Another factor in military type
assault weapons is the cartridges. There are cartridges from 7 shot up to a 100-shot magazine and that's
just for handguns. Some say it's not the gun but the cartridge that makes the gun dangerous. It would be hard to
regulate all these cartridges. You might be able to ban a 100-round cartridge in your state.
Most semi-automatics come with standard 7 to 15 shot magazines. There's a lot of people incarcerated
that wish they never bought a gun. If you have a bad attitude do yourself a favor and don't buy a gun.
There was over 40.000-gun deaths in the US in 2023. 55% of gun deaths were self-inflicted, 4% accidental and
41% homicides. No major athletes or stars have publicly spoken out about school shootings especially during the
world series, super bowl or academy awards when they have the attention of the most people and teens.
Schools need to teach students about mental health and let them know that they have guidance counselors available.
If they think they will hurt themselves or others, they must realize that if their thinking gets that distorted
it's time to go to the emergency room and seek emergency mental health treatment at their local hospital.
Please Contact Your State Legislators and Demand That All Assault Rifles Be Insured
Because Of Accidents and If Someone Gets Hurt by the Gun.
Please Support Mandatory Gun Insurance.
If They Stop Paying Insurance on the Gun It Can Be Confiscated.

Why You Must Support the Free Public-School Lunch Bill
for All Students if You Support the Recreational Pot Bill.
These 2 bills must go together. Please don't support bill for legal pot unless you support free lunches in
public schools for all students. It's a hassle coming up with lunch money for kids every day for parents.
They might take it out on the kids. Medical pot has ruined it for recreational legal pot. Because medical pot
is only allowed to sell mid-grade or low-grade pot. It cost almost twice the street price. Mid-grade sells for
$45-$50 a quarter ounce on the street. The same pot, medical, is now $90 to $100 a quarter and this is low grade.
That's why we wanted legal pot in the first place so we could get the high-grade pot that is grown in the United States.
$100 a quarter. Medical pot mostly sells cartridges for vapor pins that sell up to $100 a gram.
You can easily use a whole cartridge a day or more. This is one product that the government should want to keep
the price as low as possible for consumers. This money is going to go up in smoke. Now the unsold medical pot
is hitting the streets and flooding it with medical or low-grade pot. It's a rip off. The point is that
whether its medical or recreational pot is that it's expensive. You could spend a fortune for either one.
First you get off work on Friday night.
Buy a pack of cigarettes. Pick up a six pack of beer and buy lottery tickets. And now on top of that
you purchase this low grade but expensive pot which cost more than the first 3 combined. It will put kids in a
whole new level of poverty. That's why if you support a medical or recreational pot bill, you must support free lunches
in all public schools for all students, teachers and staff. If students get money now, they can spend what little they have
and buy personal hygiene products. The free lunch for all students in public school's bill must go with the
medical or recreational pot bill.

We Need Self-Charging Cars Not Self-Driving. Where's The Alternator?
Alternators can supply electric cars with plenty of
power especially if you have them hooked to the rear dummy axle
that has no driveshaft or transmission hooked to it. We have the technology we just need to get citizens to
bring this up to major news networks and get the public sold on them. Self-charging cars would give us a freedom
we never had before. Go anywhere we want and travel more. Cars can be completely self-charging with
modern technology. I know how to make a rechargeable car, why can't they? Let's concentrate on self-charging cars
not self-driving cars. It can be done, and this is a wake-up call to people in the alternator business.
Alternators can decrease the number of batteries needed in electric cars or increase mileage. If we can spend
billions on self-driving technology, we can spend billions on the self-charging industry.

District of Columbia (D.C.) Is Our Capitol Not a State. (U.S.)
It is a very special place. You might even say it's the capital of the world. You want to make it a state?
If DC is our capitol, then it makes it federal property and all government workers should get federal pay
including teachers. If a state, they will lose their federal pay status. Federal pay meaning there is
county wages, state wages and federal wages meaning they are paid more. All 50 states should financially
support their capitol and help pay for the increase in wages. You can slowly increase wages by the month
and receive full wages after one year. They should not get back pay. Please don't harm our capitol.

Forgiving Student Loan Debt
With the thought of student loan debt being forgiven, the first things that come to mind is that this
is a children's rights issue. This money belongs to every 1st grader to the 12th grade (1.6 trillion).
This money is for their college education. Instead of forgiving the debt, you can suspend interest rates
indefinitely for 3 years then slowly reinstate interest rates. Owning a debt is one thing. Watching your payment
go up instead of down. Thats where the stress starts of student loan debt. You can also offer early payoff deals
maybe knocking off 15% if they completely pay off the loan. Because of the pandemic, borrowers are late
on their payments. If we eliminate interest, you can also give a refund of up to 1 to 3 years' worth of
interest back. This money can be spent on their student loan back payments or if they get complete
amnesty from payments during the pandemic, they can use the money to pay off other debt's. Having a
no interest loan will encourage more citizens to go to a college or university. The thing about forgiving
student loan debt is this. You're at a job interview. The applicant has a degree in this certain field. Their discussing
their salary that they are offering. The first applicant told the interviewer they have no student loan debt.
It was payed for by a grant. In fact, half the applicants had no student loan debt. The second applicant
interviewed had $100,000 in student loan debt. The interviewer asks their selves, why should we give top pay to the
applicants with no student loan debt. They don't need to make as much as the applicant with $100,000 in
student debt. They know that the applicant has $100,000 in student debt and needs to make more to take the job.
All applicants with no debt. end up getting less pay and the degree they are in is worth less. The debt is
what makes their degree so valuable.

Get Kids Off the Donor Program by Putting Them On
We need mandatory organ donors from birth to 28 years old to get kids off the donor waiting list.
The only way to make the system fair is if its mandatory. Do people really care if they take their liver, heart or other?
Is it really that big a deal? Instead of checking the organ donor on your license, you should check it if you
want off. Kids don't have DMV donor cards. If you are 0 to 28 there is no waiting list that's the benefit,
If you are over 28 and don't sign the donor card, they will not be eligible to receive one. You should be
signed up to receive donor only if they are on the donor sign up for 3 years or more. Hospitals
don't want people to die in their hospital and quickly send them to hospice but if their a donor that's the worst thing
they can do. These would be donors now must die in a hospice at the actual hospital to get their organs so this
would change everything. People must donate to the hospital run hospice and make them so nice that patients
would prefer to die there than at home. The in-house hospice would be for donors only.
Get kids off the waiting lists for organs.
If they pass this Bill, they can call it the "Life Forward Bill" or the "Party on Bill."

How the Economy Went Bad After Hurricane Katrina Using The 15% Rule
O.K. Home prices were out of control before H.K. then comes H.K. the price of plywood skyrocketed.
In fact the price of a lumber package rose 15% so insurance companies paid 15% more to rebuild the homes.
Because of the rise of a lumber package (15%) homes are valued 15% more so people who bought homes after H.K.
paid 15% more. Because home values rose 15% after H.K. some borrowed 15% or maxed out their mortgage. One year
after hurricane Katrina the demand for plywood went back to normal and the price of a lumber package dropped 15%.
Those who bought a home during this one-year period now have a house that is worth 15% less. Those who refinanced
their home during this year and their house is now worth 15% less and now owe more than their house is worth.
When the bottom fell out of the price of a lumber package one year after H.K. the price of homes in the U.S.
dropped 15% and this caused a recession. The question is should we stockpile plywood for emergencies,
relook how we deal with disasters, or look into price gouging (lumber package) after big disasters.
Keep in mind lumber companies may have to pay overtime to workers during high demand. Florida was hardest hit
because a lot of condos were built for vacationers and have mobile home quality cabinets and furnishings and bring
low bids at auctions. These condos are not suitable for homeowners who had nice homes and want to retire in.

Its Official: Palestinian Gaza Now a Seaport in Israel

No Statehood for A City of Felons
The international community demands that Israel take responsibility for national
security and demand that the dangerous nonexistent government of the Palestinian seaport of Gaza be declared
a city in Israel. Enough is enough. No more child soldiers. This would be government is too dangerous
to exist and just can't be in this century. The international community also demands that the government
of Egypt receive a war chest of 8.5 billion plus 3.5 billion in economic aid from the U.S. and its allies if they accept
our decision that will happen anyways and that an additional 2.5 billion be put aside for settlements
with the Palestinian Egyptian refugees and 70 million be put aside for a legal team , consultants
and panel to decide who gets a settlement, how it is given and what form it will be distributed . If the citizen
is in controversy, then their settlement will go to schools or programs that benefit their neighborhoods.
Egypt should not have to accept Israel as a Jewish state, just plain "Israel". International communities must understand
that this conflict is not about faith or skin color it is about the Palestinians denying Jewish immigrants
and citizens the right to own property and wealth and young Palestinians have very little to do about this decision
their government made decades earlier - The government of Israel must open up social services and offer services to its
citizens in the seaport of Gaza. If the Palestinians refuse to recognize they live in Israel their property
might be confiscated and then be sold, but if they recognize they live in Israel and pay taxes to the Israel treasury
they must let non-controversial Palestinians live in or move back into what is now Israel and keep their property.
It must be recognized that Israel has nuclear weapons, and they are the only responsible government in the region.
The modern map of Israel says it all. Christians, Muslims and all other faiths must realize that they had
centuries to reunite in this Holy Land but it was abandoned for centuries and let our histories be destroyed.
The Israeli's stepped up to the podium and now they must protect our ancient history and if they fail then this
government must be toppled and if the Christians rise to the occasion, then all faiths must except this government.
The Israel government is doing a great job of preserving our ancient history and we cannot let it be
destroyed for the centuries unborn.
There is no going forward and there is no turning back.
No Statehood for a City of Felons
Its Official: The city of Palestine and the seaport of Gaza are now in Israel.
