      <description><![CDATA[<p>Why should it cost hard working American Families who are already hurting from high food costs and high everything costs pay between $400 and $700 a month only to supply electricity to their houses? I’ve made all cuts possible and put timers on everything and have never in my life have I ever regulated my electricity in the house more than now and for June of 2025 I paid $330 just for com ed now today I paid my stab in the heart electricity bill for July of 2025 for $464 only for electricity and that’s BS and nothing more than GREED and it needs to Stop Now!!<br />
We The People Deserve Better And Will Demand Better and the fact that people have to pay these stupid prices only for 1 utility is BS and a failure from our government and the horrible business practices they let take place under their watches!! Stand Up People And Sign This Petition And Tell These Greedy Corporations We Are Done Being Abused And Robbed Blind Every Day We Wake up!! If there is No change then they will wipe out the middle class and there will only be a flat poor class and the Greedy Rich Buttholes left!!</p>]]></description>

      <title>Stop Incompetent Local Government Management Of Our Data</title>
      <link>https://www.gopetition.com/petitions/stop-incompetent-local-government-management-of-our-data.html?utm_medium=rss</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Stop Local Government Data Incompetence</p>

<p>HOW MUCH LONGER ARE WE GOING TO TOLERATE INCOMPETENCE AND NEGLECT OF OUR  PERSONAL INFORMATION BY STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS?</p>

<p>We are now 25 years into the Internet Era and yet vast numbers of businesses and most local governments have not figured out how to keep our data safe.<br />
Local governments are allowed to get away with almost anything when it comes to our data!<br />
Some of their functions are covered under HIPAA and a few other regs, but most are as incompetently managed as the rest of local government functions.<br />
Currently, most Americans have had private data taken as a part of a major data breaches. This is creating havoc with our identities, our credit, our employment, and our very lives as breaches and hacks hit our healthcare industry.</p>

<p>IT IS TIME TO STOP THE MADNESS</p>

<p>Recent Story: https://romancescamsnow.com/dating-scams/scars-commentary-stop-local-government-data-incompetence/</p>

<p>In order to put an end to the cycle of endless data breaches, we need our National Government to do what they have proven they can do! They can secure our data.<br />
Get over your distrust of our government, the truth is that they already know or have access to everything about you - but most of that data is in the hands of people who are careless or have no regard for the impact it has on you. If it gets hacked it is not their problem, it is yours.</p>

<p>Join us in petitioning the Government of the United States to create a safe repository for state and local governments, so that they are not storing this data locally or on incompetently managed services.</p>

<p>PLEASE SIGN OUR PETITION TO GET CONGRESS TO ACT ON THIS IMPORTANT ISSUE!</p>]]></description>

      <title>Appeal For Relief For The Poorest Of The Poor At The Time Of Pandemic</title>
      <link>https://www.gopetition.com/petitions/appeal-for-provisional-relief-project-%E0%A4%B8%E0%A4%B9-%E0%A4%A8-%E0%A4%AD%E0%A4%A8%E0%A4%95%E0%A4%A4-we-eat-together.html?utm_medium=rss</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>The following statistics (if statistical data are to be believed!) of India speaks for itself about the condition of the country. It has worsened during the catastrophic situation due to COVID-19 outbreak:<br />
1.	Population: 135.26 crores and still counting (May 2020)<br />
2.	Hunger Index: rank 102 out of 117 qualifying countries (2019)<br />
3.	Unemployment rate: 8.74% of the population (2020)<br />
4.	GDP growth rate: 1.9% post-lockdown (2020), following global recession<br />
5.	Happiness Index: rank 140 out of 156 countries (2019)<br />
6.	Corruption Index: rank 80 out of 180 countries (2020)<br />
7.	Informal sector workers: 93% of the total workforce (2019)<br />
8.	Availability of Hospital beds: 0.055 per 1,000 population (2020)<br />
9.	Malnourished population: 195.9 million malnourished people (2015-17); one-third of the world's malnourished children belong to India.<br />
10.	Carbon Footprints: emission of 2,299 million tonnes of Carbon Dioxide (2018)<br />
11.  Poverty index: rank 49. Two-thirds of people in India live in poverty: 68.8% of the Indian population lives on less than $2 a day. Over 30% even have less than $1.25 per day. More than 36 crore Indians still cannot afford three square meals a day.  India had 73 million people living in extreme poverty which makes up 5.5% of its total population. India's top 1% owns half of national wealth.<br />
12. External Debt is nearly about Rupees 86 trillion (as on 02/05/2020)! (However, Indian Government has written off the astronomical figure of money, 68,607 crores owed by the super-rich people at the time of international crisis.)<br />
13. Defense Budget: The union government allocated Rs 3.37 lakh crore as the defense budget for the financial year 2020-21.</p>

<p>India is a victim of Lawrence Summers’ (chief economist of the World Bank 1991-93) memo "Let Them Eat Pollution". Majority of Indians have lost their herd immunity for consuming spurious products of so-called Green Revolution (empirical data not available).</p>

<p>Keeping in mind the above scenario, this appeal is made to the Government of India for relieving the poorest of the poor at the time of COVID-19 crisis.</p>

      <title>ΛΑΘΡΟΜΕΤΑΝΑΣΤΕΥΤΙΚΟ. Η ΕΘΝΙΚΗ ΑΠΕΙΛΗ !</title>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Η παράνομη μετανάστευση μαζί με το δημογραφικό αποτελούν τα μεγαλύτερα προβλήματα επιβίωσης του έθνους μας. Η συνεχιζόμενη ανεξέλεγκτη εισροή παράνομων μεταναστών —εκ των οποίων ένα ελάχιστο ποσοστό είναι πραγματικά πρόσφυγες— σε ένα ουσιαστικά χρεοκοπημένο κράτος και με την ένοχη ανοχή κυβέρνησης και αντιπολίτευσης, αυξάνει τα ήδη μεγάλα προβλήματα στην οικονομία, την δυνατότητα εύρεσης εργασίας, την υγειονομική περίθαλψη και την παιδεία, αλλοιώνει την ταυτότητα και τον πολιτισμό του έθνους μας και έχει συμβάλει σε μια αύξηση της εγκληματικότητας που είναι πρωτόγνωρη για τη χώρα μας.<br />
Η πολυπολιτισμική πολιτική των κομμάτων εξουσίας δημιουργεί εθνολογικές και θρησκευτικές μειονότητες, που αλλοιώνουν την συνοχή και ιδιοπροσωπία της Ελληνικής κοινωνίας και όπως αποδείχθηκε στην Γαλλία, στη Σουηδία και αλλού, δημιουργούν μια χώρα ανταγωνιστικών κοινοτήτων. Η χορήγηση στέγης, επιδομάτων και ΑΜΚΑ στους παράνομους μετανάστες, την ώρα που Έλληνες έχουν γίνει ρακοσυλλέκτες στην προσπάθεια για επιβίωση, ενώ οι νέοι μας είναι άνεργοι και φεύγουν με συνεχώς επιταχυνόμενο ρυθμό για το εξωτερικό, είναι παράλογη, προκλητική και απαράδεκτη από μια κυβέρνηση που υποτίθεται πως ο πρωταρχικός της ρόλος είναι να φροντίζει για τον λαό που την ψήφισε. Οι περισσότερες ΜΚΟ που εργάζονται με ανθρωπιστικό πρόσχημα αφήνονται να δρουν ανεξέλεγκτα και ύποπτα, ενώ πλουτίζουν οι κάθε μορφής δουλέμποροι.<br />
Η παράνομη μετανάστευση δημιουργεί μια σύγχρονη παγκόσμια τάξη εξαθλιωμένων εργαζομένων προς εκμετάλλευση, και όλα αυτά με την χρηματοδότηση εξωθεσμικών κέντρων που υποστηρίζονται από νεοφιλελεύθερα αριστερά και δεξιά κόμματα. Από στρατηγική άποψη, έχει γίνει πασιφανές πως η παράνομη μετανάστευση υποκινείται από την Τουρκία ως όπλο για τη δημιουργία στην Ελλάδα πολυπληθούς ισλαμικής μειονότητας, η οποία, είτε με αυθόρμητη είτε με προκληθείσα αντιπαράθεση, θα μπορεί στο μέλλον να χρησιμοποιηθεί καταλλήλως, όπως έγινε στην Κύπρο.</p>]]></description>

      <title>Δημοψήφισμα για την Συμφωνία των Πρεσπών</title>
      <link>https://www.gopetition.com/petitions/%CE%B4%CE%B7%CE%BC%CE%BF%CF%88%CE%AE%CF%86%CE%B9%CF%83%CE%BC%CE%B1-%CE%B3%CE%B9%CE%B1-%CF%84%CE%B7%CE%BD-%CF%83%CF%85%CE%BC%CF%86%CF%89%CE%BD%CE%AF%CE%B1-%CF%84%CF%89%CE%BD-%CF%80%CF%81%CE%B5%CF%83%CF%80%CF%8E%CE%BD.html?utm_medium=rss</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<p style='text-align:justify; text-indent:30px;'>Εμείς οι Δημοκρατικοί πολίτες που συνυπογράφουμε αυτό το κείμενοδηλώνουμε την αντίθεσή μας στη Συμφωνία των Πρεσπών μεταξύ της Ελληνικής Δημοκρατίας και της ΠΓΔΜ επειδή αυτή  απεμπολεί τα ύψιστα δίκαια του ελληνικού λαού στο σύνολό του και δεσμεύει το μέλλον των επερχόμενων γενεών.</p>

<p style='text-align:justify; text-indent:30px;'>Για το λόγο αυτό  ζητούμε να πραγματοποιηθεί δημοψήφισμα για την κύρωση ή όχι  της Συμφωνίας των Πρεσπών, ώστε να αποφασίσει  ο ίδιος ο κυρίαρχος  ελληνικός λαός γι’ αυτήν. Εξάλλου δεν είναι δυνατόν οι κάτοικοι της ΠΓΔΜ να έχουν ήδη εκφραστεί με δημοψήφισμα επί της συγκεκριμένης συμφωνίας και να μην παρέχεται το αντίστοιχο δικαίωμα στους Έλληνες πολίτες. Γιατί, σε τελευταία ανάλυση, το θέμα  αυτό είναι εθνικό και συγχρόνως θέμα δημοκρατίας.</p>]]></description>

      <title>CO2 Drawdown Pledge</title>
      <link>https://www.gopetition.com/petitions/drawdown-pledge.html?utm_medium=rss</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Unlike air pollution, which is gone from the atmosphere in days to weeks, excess CO2 at current levels will remain in the atmosphere and pose harm for approximately 1,000 years.</p>

<p>Emissions reduction strategies alone cannot walk back accelerating harm from droughts, amplified hurricanes, rising seas, and extreme weather events driven by excess CO2 accumulation in the atmosphere.</p>

<p>These events threaten the global environment and all systems of economic order, agriculture, public health, and civic stability, on which human survival depends.</p>

      <title>Save our Hawker Culture</title>
      <link>https://www.gopetition.com/petitions/save-our-hawker-culture.html?utm_medium=rss</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>The government had initiated a slew of agent run hawker centres which has resulted in rents up to 100% higher. This has resulted in higher food prices, high turnover of stalls closing down due to the inability to service the rents and have scared off the new generation from being enterprenual hawkers and continuing our hawker culture.<br />
We need to pressure the decision makers to step in and remove agency related costs and make hawker centres truly affordable for all.</p>]]></description>

      <title>Calling for a fair and honest review of the Swimming Pool Regulations for apartment complexes and resorts</title>
      <link>https://www.gopetition.com/petitions/calling-for-a-fair-and-honest-review-of-the-swimming-pool-regulations-for-apartment-complexes-and-resorts.html?utm_medium=rss</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>The current regulations governing swimming pools in Cyprus are outdated and in serious need of reform.  We call on the Minister of Interior Mr Konstantinos Ioannou to initiate a fair and reasonable review of the regulations and suspend any ongoing legal action against communal pools for not having a public swimming pool licence until the end of this review.</p>

<p>If you agree that the current swimming pool regulations which still require lifeguards on the smallest buildings communal pools (costing an estimated 18,000-30,000 per year) are disproportionate, please help by signing this petition.</p>

<p>For more information about this petition and the need for this pool regulation reform please click on the link above to go to www.CyprusCommunalGuide.com</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>The International Middle Child Union and Middle Child Party stand together in decrying the remarks made by our misguided Middle Child-in-Chief in reaction to the tragic events in Charlottesville, and do not agree with his views on  climate change, immigration, transgenders in the military, DACA, health care, and more. We also have serious concerns about his overall demeanor, not to mention his spelling and grammar. If you share these concerns, please sign this petition. #notmymiddlechildinchief</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Honourable Prime Minister Sir ,<br />
NRIs and Indian nationals abroad can deposit up to Rs 25,000 of the demonetised currency till June 30, 2017 ,but for this Rs 25000 / per person an NRI has to spend 2000 USD approximately to come , stay and go back from India which is around Rs1,00000/- .<br />
Honourable Sir , not all NRI's can afford this every year , further other reasons like commitments to job , household or even health issues are there .<br />
Pensioners all over the  World  cannot even think to make such a huge expenditure , and they travel once in two years .<br />
The general inflow of passengers to India starts before September , i.e they come to see relatives during Dussehra, and continues till Diwali<br />
Under circumstances , Honourable Sir , we ask you with folded hands to extend this Date line till September 2017  so that all who are NRI's gets the fair opportunity without bias to avail the benefit  which your esteemed office provides .<br />
Dr Gautam Ghosh<br />
on behalf of NRI<br />
Community</p>
