E'Mani+Nickerson-Skanes

=== My name is E'mani Nickerson- Skanes, and i am the Senator of Indiana. My political ideology is moderate. The taxes in America is very high and needs to be lowered. A lot of people don't have a lot of money to pay the taxes. ===

=== High taxes destroy an economy, and that is why the whole economy and the living standard of people benefit from low taxes. If we have high taxes it weakens our economic growth, and if we have lower taxes the economic growth will increase. Raising taxes when the economy is doing poorly is a terrible idea. Tax increase is not needed. The governments answer to everything is NEW TAXES. They ignore that fact that everytime this government has lowered taxes, the economy haves inproved and the tax take has increased. When they raise taxes people try to avoid them, but when they lower taxes people pay more because they do things to create profits. ===

=BILL= http://mockcongress2012.wikispaces.com/SB20

The purpose of my bill was to make everybody have a fair trail. It makes the judge give them a fair punishment. It gives them the right punishments, not to harsh but harsh enough. It makes judges give the person a fair trail that is not based on their rank in society, gender, orf race. An example of this is the Trayvon Martin case. My bill will make judges and others look into cases a little more then they do now. It will make the guilty not get set free. It will also make the innocent go free, and not get any punishments for what they did not do.Fewer criminals roaming the streets, less innocent people suffering in jail, better trained police officers, and a safer society. Everyone will get the same trail and their would not be any bias situations.

Endorsement: Obama
===I chose Obama because he works hard as a president. He had signed into law an economic plan that saved America from a depression, restored growth, and created or saved many as 3.6 million jobs. He had fought against wall street lobbyist to sign into law historic consumer protections and financial reforms that shield American families from unfair lending practices from credit card and mortgage companies, rein in the excesses of Wall Street, and work to prevent future financial crises. He also had rescued the American Auto Industry, which saved millions of American jobs and helped M and Chrystlers become profitable again while repaying taxpayers.===

Issue #1: Taxes

Everyone haves the right to date or marry who ever they want to because they are in love. Marriage is for two that love eachother and want to make there relationship more serious. Gay people love like everyone else, the only difference is they like the same gender. Gays shouldn't be treated differently.
