The Democrats have given in to the Republican demands that hold our Nations Economy hostage since Dec 2010 when President Obama signed off on extending the Bush tax break to the wealthiest Americans. Yet each time demands are met the GOP comes back with more demands while the wealthy have thus far escaped unscathed.

Enough is enough America, it is time we send a clear message to Washington DC and that message is; this financial crisis was caused by two Republican wars that weren't paid for and the Financial Crisis of 2009 in which an unregulated Wall Street caused a recession that is still reeking havoc on America and much of the world. Tell Washington to:

1. Repeal the Bush Tax Breaks.

2. Close loopholes that allow the wealthiest corporations and people to avoid taxes and move jobs and their money off shore.

3. Bring our troops home from Iraq and Afganistan as swiftly as possible.

4. Stop U.S. Military Actions in Libya.

5. Reduce Military Spending by 20%.

These five things will bring our deficit down faster than it was created. The middle class and poor did not create this deficit or financial crisis but they have been paying for it while many of the ones that did create it are making record profits.

Don't touch Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid

Greetings,

If you vote to cut Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid you will not receive my vote in any future elections. Rather than cutting these critical programs I would like you to:

1. Repeal the Bush Tax Breaks.

2. Close loopholes that allow the wealthiest corporations and people to avoid taxes and move jobs and their money off shore.

3. Bring our troops home from Iraq and Afganistan as swiftly as possible.

4. Stop U.S. Military Actions in Libya.

5. Reduce Military Spending by 20%.

The polls reflect the majority of Americans support these actions to reduce the deficit. If America cannot afford to keep it's social contracts with its people, America cannot afford any of the steps numerically listed above.
