What is your one wish for the New Year?

[diabeticman]

If by wishing for it or protesting it the most this up coming year. What is the one thing you want to see Congress give to the 99%?


Is it universal health care? (I know some people who make too much to get government help for paying and make too little to have it without sacrificing something else.)


Congress passing reform of some sort for the out of control police bullies we have now at days.


My personal desire. A raise in the min wage.


What is it you hope congress gives to us in 2015?

[el_bryanto]

1. Serious regulation of wall street derivative products

Preferably by having them traded on a public exchange with all the disclosures that that entails.

Esoteric, I know.

2. Congress isn't going to give the people shit...

The Sadists are taking over in 2015.

[Andy823]

4. I have to agree with you

All we will see next year is bill after bill trying to tear apart everything the republicans hate, and thats everything that president Obama has accomplished since being elected, and contrary to what some on DU say, he "has" accomplished a lot.

The only way to accomplish things, such as higher wages, is to do it a the state level. People need to get out and protes for higher wages, and get it on state ballots so the people can vote on it. If people vote for it, will win.

5. HA!!

That's about all they intend to give the people, shit!

11. Don't depend on resignations, it is called vote them out.

[leftofcool]

6. Cheney and Bush in prison.

8. Ask not what your country can do for you...

Ask what you can do for your country. - JFK

This: "What is it you hope congress gives to us in 2015?"

... is asking what your country can do for you.

So, what can you do for your country? And try not to be so shallow as to say you want to do something that has anything to do with government.

9. Maybe they can choke...

on their own hypocrisy.

From congress I can only expect more of the same: war and gifts to the 1%.

(no smiley for cynicism)

[olddots]

10. mental health care

As in modern world mental health care ....

[Thinkingabout]

12. My first hope would be for world peace but for the most bang for a dollar

would be to raise the minimum wage increase, it would help the lowest paid and have more dollars to put back into the ecomony.

[Cleita]

13. Nuremberg type trials for war crimes for our previous administration and

that we as a nation acknowledge our crimes against our First Nation people and those brought here as slaves. We need to find a way to make reparations to them. We cannot move forward until we make right our past transgressions. Any spiritual leader from any religion will tell you the same.

[logosoco]

14. Outside of the world peace and happiness and safety for my loved ones...

yes, a raise in the minimum wage would be great for the country. But, I don't think that most of those "in charge" are going to let that happen. Too selfish and greedy. Therefore, I am sitting now in a spot where i almost WANT the repubs to keep doing their crap. They are going to make such an even bigger mess that no one can deny it. THEN they will lose power and popularity and the general population will come to their senses and never vote them in power again!

[Zorra]

15. I wish wise and kindly space aliens would "rapture" every conservative

to another dimension, solar system, whatever. Someplace where they could be happy, hoarding, killing, and destroying to their hearts content, without pesky liberals trying to stop them.

They'd be happy, and we would rapidly solve every fixable problem on earth.

[Odin2005]

16. Socialist revolution.

I can dream, can't I?

[Initech]

17. I want to see the Koch Brothers arrested and thrown in prison.

[louis-t]

18. I hope we all make it through the first year

of these bastards being in charge again without ending up destitute. We'll worry about 2016 when the time comes. One step at a time.
