The ALEC Scorecard – Updated Daily!

Thank you for this information. I will make sure to boycott these companies, because they are not acting in the public’s best interests.

Electronic Constitutional Convention

By now most have heard of
the proposed constitutional amendments to get private money and influence out
of Federal elections, as well as the one that would level or lower the benefits
Congress gives itself to those the rest of us must live with. The following
changes should be fused into a single amendment:  The Justices of the Supreme Court should be
elected with public funds,
along with Congress.  Three Justices
would have to run for election  every two
years, starting with the longer tenured  first.  Like Senators, they would then have six year
terms. 

It’s long past time to take
the spoils out of the political process. 
What made sense more than two-hundred years ago,  as a result of compromises at the time,  no longer makes sense today.  Also along that vein, the notion that States
with low population such as Idaho or Wyoming, having the same clout in the Senate
as New York,  California, or Michigan is
illogical on its face.  That arrangement
has morphed into an unworkable gerrymander. 
Let’s at long last get rid of the Electoral College, as well.

Let’s have an electronic Constitutional Convention!

I’m a 30 year customer of State Farm, a 40 year customer of AT&T and have used UPS and FedEx. I have big changes that I am making in my life and have let my whole family know to change also.

The oil speculators are directly responsible for high gasoline prices and are left to do thier dastradly deed as in the state of Utah EVERY CENT OF INCREASE, benefits the stste revenue by10.8 million in taxes and corrects any short fall as is the case in all states. It is apparent that the Republican states donot feel compeld to question the economy as they will ride it out and show how well they managed the economy of their states with the hidden revenue of the gasoline pump prices. They are hoping to win and then force a drop in prices by request and show a moral victory and their ability to get co-operation with the commercial economy. Tricky , under the baton of ROVE, and as he is from UTAH I can say his education and the comments from a Professor of history was not coplimentary, to be polite. He is the modern day BRUTUS o oru times and he will use the  ”contaversy builds listeners” style of Rush LIMBO, and has no social conscience. I am grateful that I have discovered your web site and appreciate what you are doing. 
The scandel of oil speculators has the same character of the early spice traders, they bid the oil in tankers ( thosands of them sitting at sea) and only take possession of the ship one day in 30, and only when they see oil going long. There are millions gallons of oil in storage on ships which does not get included in reserves and floating around the world waiting for the right time . There is a story here similar to the mortgage crisis and should be told, if there are good investigators out there with entree to these markets. AGAIN THANK YOU FOR YOUR

All the pussy spineless companies that left ALEC should fail I personally will boycott coke, wendys, kraft. I agree with the stand your ground law. Zimmerman was attacked and he shot the chimp.

ALEC is a perfect tool now for the GOP and Tea initiative – The initiative to take Federal government and place decisions into each states hands, paying for andmanipulating state government is easier for the Plutocrats to manage. The new idea is, as per the midterm election, GOPBAGGER governors in lets say Wisc, SC, mich, ohio – You know, the states that LOVE ALEC and the money they pay for legislation, the idea is divide and conquer. get all the federal government out and control it from the states, destroy unions and departments and privatize everything. The Plutocrats want it to be “pay to play” and “profit for peoples lives” (servitude,essentially) – can’t happen here? already is and the voters better wake up and get rid of the do nothing paid off congress, fillerbustering GOP Senators and for Gods sake, DO NOT vote for the flacid Plutocrat king, Willard the waste of money Romney.
