Critical Needed Additions to your Declaration:

  1. Break Apart the "Too Big To Fail" Corporations because they financial threats to the national interests of the United States. Enact Thomas Jefferson's proposed 11th Amendment. Create Sherman Act part 2!

  2. Require all goods manufactured outside the united states to be manufactured in accordance with US OSHA standards and EPA regulations---If, in making of the goods, people or their environments are exploited, then the goods must stay out---or the company receives a stiff exploitation tariff.

  3. All goods from countries that intentionally devalue their currencies to exploit the US market, are subject to an currency-balancing importation tariff (in an amount which revalues the commodity to non-exploitive prices.)

  1. Immediate reenactment of the Glass-Steagall Act and increased regulation of Wall Street by the SEC, FINRA and NASD, and the commencement of a Justice Department criminal investigations into the Securities and Banking industries pertaining to the collapse of markets and financial firm failures in 2007-2008.

minor correction---the NASD is FINRA. You may also want to add the CFTC which regulates commodoties futures trading and options as well. as

Thank you! I have gathered there's inadaquate staffing, or reasorces fot those keeping this website up. That is a serious problem and there's no reason for it given the depth of human and other resorces available. It seems somebody hasn't yet grasped that THE WORLD is behind this movement! We're in the big leagues now! ASK AND YEE SHALL RECEIVE!.
