Mr President, Taxing the rich sounds great, when they are the only ones with the money. However, I fail to see how this creates jobs. I would focus more on bringing outsourced jobs back home and off shored production back to the US. If you really want to scare republicans, offer zero corporate taxes with a VAT tax on every service and product imported into the US. The Corporations would gladly settle for anything but that. Sincerely, Taxpayers of America

Dear President Obama,I was employed for over 20 years by a WW, high tech, billion dollar company, as the Corporate Office Manager.  To cut back overhead, they replaced the President / CEO and my job was automatically cut. At the same time, my expenses shot sky high; because, suddenly I had a mother with Alzheimers that needed 24/7 private paid care (5-8K a month).  As everyone should know, there is not medi-care or medi-cal free care for seniors with alzheimers, only those that need convalescent care. I lost my home. I exhaused my reserves.  My picture perfect credit ended in BK. At 60, I'm too young for SSO and old enough that employers aren't that interested in considering me for new career opportunities.  Extending unemployment to the 99ers would bring hope to those of us that are fighting hard to make it, but need additional time to fight the odds.  This country needs a president like you.  A man with heart and a spirit like Robin Hood.  From: One woman, age 60, that stands alone with a heavy load to carry. 

Mr. President,  First and foremost, I would like to thank you for your courage and inspiration you have given to myself and my family.   I find myself writing to you regarding the healthcare no pre-existing for denial thing... I am a 38 year old woman with 4 beautiful daughters.  I have ALWAYS had health insurance, until my husband and I divorced 3 years ago.  also, I have been diagnosed bi-polar manic with ADHD since I was in my early 20's.  Over the last 3 years of my "no insurance" life, I have continued to see my local county mental health clinic, and stayed on my meds out of my pocket.  Fast forwar to April, 2010, my ex-husband and I reconcilled our relationship and our famiily... and found a new home to move into together.  A week before we moved in, I found a lump in my breast.  Three weeks after moving into our new home, I found a lump in my other breast as well.  I applied to two different companies, BCBS, and through Farm Bureau... I have NOT been or talked to a Dr. yet because specifically I am terrified of the pre-existing thing... apparantly that was for goosd cause... I got a denial from BCBS stating specifically in black & white I am denied because of my bipolar and adhd diagnosis, and just recieved a duplicate denial letter from farm bureau for the same reasons.   I recently posted this as my status on my facebook page, This is prob not fb appropriate, but...its me, so whatev... So I haven't had health insurance for 3 years, found 2 lumpies in the girls, haven't been to the Dr. Yet, (cuz I'm freaked out & becausew no insurance), and now I try to buy insurance & I'm denied? Great... Now what am I going to do besides die from breast can...cer because I have no insurance? Seriously... Any suggestions anyone? In the 20+ responses I received, a few mwntioned I should write to you, as this one.... I thought for sure no more denials for pre-existing conditions took affect immediately upon passage of Obamacare. That doesn't mean companies aren't still trying to get away with it though. You might try the White House website and see if you find something there about how to make sure you don't get denied So..... here I write... a very scared Mom in Lenexa, KS... If you ever do actually get to read this, and have any suggestions, I can be contacted at tracigentry3@yahoo.com, or my cell is 913-378-3760...   Again, thank you for your leadership of our country, I am soooo thankful for a change!   Respectfully,   Teresa (Traci) Gentry Lenexa, Kansas Read more about Pre-Existing denial's from Health Insurance Carriers

I don't know what's happening to America.  It seems corp. companies are getting all the help.  I have been unemployed since 2008 & still looking for work.  My husband is employed, but his wages have been cut, & he suffered 2 heart attacts this year.  I am 57 & husband is 53.  At our age it is hard to find work.  We are about to loose our home & be put out on the street.  We have medical bills out the you know what. My husband also has diabetes & medicine isn't cheap, even with insurance.  There is no question that my husbands health comes first. Between pay cuts, medical bills & me loosing my job, we can't pay for our home. It seems to me, it doesn't matter if the American people go bankrupt, as long as corporations don't.  The money given to the banks should have gone to help the people.  The American people are the ones who keep the economy going. Give me some answers! HOW HAVE YOU HELPED THE PEOPLE?  You haven't
