From: Michael K., Portland, OR

Repeal EVERY financial action of the Clinton Administration. Repeal the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Repeal the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB). Repeal NAFTA and the World Trade Organization (WTO). No agreements were made on labor-environment (as promised). Dismiss all of the Clinton Administration hires. Restore labor laws for the common man or outsource. We cannot afford big business with weak labor laws and no government oversight.

I lost a $25,000 unvested (4.5 years) pension. I am 61, disabled, and homeless. No one wants to tell me where my money went. Did I have to work for GM, Chrysler, a Wall Street Bank or AIG? Education with no employers is a waste of three degrees with honors.
