Comments
User comments on OpenCongress are designed to allow real-world people to contribute their knowledge, insight, and expertise to legislation in Congress. OpenCongress comment boards are an open public forum for community discussion. Any information posted here will be viewable by all visitors. For personal correspondence with Congress, please contact your Senators and your Representative directly.
These comment boards are designed to "filter up" the comments rated "most helpful" by users. Every OpenCongress user has the ability to set his or her personal ratings filter higher, to view only the comments rated most-helpful, or lower, to view every comment on a page. Also, every user earns a site-wide rating for all the comments he or she submits, which can be viewed on his or her personal profile page. This serves as an incentive for individuals with Congressional expertise, or simply frequently-helpful comments, to comment more often on bills.
Comments may illuminate any of the following: overlooked details on the substance of a bill, where different Members of Congress stand on a bill, evaluations of a bill's chances of passing into law, which outside groups support or oppose the bill, links to important news coverage or blog analysis of a bill, or simply an individual's opinion on a bill.
The more comments you rate, the better that comment boards work for everyone -- so please make frequent use of the slider bars next to each comment! Together we can get closer to what's really happening in Congress.
The U S Government has become dangerous to all U S Citizens.
Fear has gripped the Government and many people of The United States, causing havoc among all citizens. Not in history of civilization has such atrocities been realized. Spying and torture has become a common practice to any individual living or not living the productive life, people who live peacefully, people who are satisfied with their lives. Once the Government considers a person or persons an outsider, they are considered alien and a danger to the society. The government fears these people for their disrupting the overall progress of the American Way. Growth and prosperity, has become a major concern to those people dwelling in luxury and vanity, while individuals who are satisfied with the common way of living are scrutinized and condemned for being lazy and indifferent to any advancement. America is the product of devastation to the planet Earth, and the realm of outer space. The government has sold-out to the destruction of this planet with endless violations, removing the material resources and destroying natural environment, ending nearly all ecosystems for the natural forms of life. The elderly, in their time to relax and enjoy the things they have accomplished, the government relentlessly hounds, reminding the retired they are still useful and can be of some consequence to the community around them. The government continues to rely on production and progress, the very accomplishments that are burying any hopes of this planet Earth from ever recovering from absolute destruction. The End

Why are Citizens being attacked? Jan. 28, 08
Nothing in this world is more alarming then the fact that United States Citizens are being attacked and done harm by the U S Government Satellite Program. I was attacked while in Ohio early last year, March and April, after some traveling to Oklahoma, and on to Amarillo, Texas. Apparently, this torturing started before my trip West, for I suffered substantially, prior to that time, not realizing what was happening to me. Throughout 06-07 winter, October until the time I went on my journey West in March, I suffered an agonizing experience of an equal consequence. At that time, I consider it much more evil and more deadly, for it was done within my home, day and night, while sleeping, while eating, while using the bathroom. This onslaught of atrocities was done even though I tried to stop it. You may ask “how can a person be harm, tortured, I would say, within their home and not be able to defend themselves.” My understanding was revealing when I thought back to how Russia, in the Cold War, beamed energies into the United States Embassy office building in Moscow, Russia. It wasn’t until some time that the administrations in Moscow realize what was happening, mainly because there was no way of knowing what was happening to the individuals while on duty. I don’t remember the details of the occurrences, but apparently the people there at the Embassy became sickly and this bombardment of energies hindered their work. Could it be possible these same covert tactics are being used in United States of America? Could the government in this country pick out individual citizens that may have irritated a few people, doing them harm? The only reason I’m able to protect myself from this tormenting affect, is my understanding of what actually happened in the Embassy in Moscow. Dual beams of energy at a specific frequency converging at some designated intersect, namely me while minding my affairs here in my home, tormenting and doing me harm. I’m sure you are extremely hesitant about even thinking such a thing is happening. Yes, this was my first thought when Satellites defense technology came to mind, “is it possible?” “Could it be, someone like me, being under surveillance, attacked by such high tech equipment?” No Way! I thought. But, after weeks of suffering its affect, I discovered truly, satellites are involved. Of course, it wasn’t an overnight revelation. It was recent I’ve been able to pinpoint the exact direction of those invading my privacy, remembering the U S Embassy in Moscow, Russia. I decided it would do no good to contact the Police Dept. “Where’s the harm?” “Where’s the evidence?”---Only those who are involved would understand such uncivilized tactics. Spying and harm goes on today and now. Are you willing to believe such evil, as it happens, is going on in my home? The End.
