In this week's address, President Obama said that in order to keep growing the economy and creating good jobs, Washington must end its cycle of manufactured crises and self-inflicted wounds. It's time for both parties to work together to pass a budget that reflects our priorities -- making smart cuts in things we don't need and closing wasteful tax loopholes, while investing in areas that create opportunities for the middle class and our future generations.

1. The 99%'s Priorities?

1)Keep your hands off Social Security, IOW NO CHAINED CPI, No cuts, Lower the Age for Physical work.
2)get the S.S. Money back from who you gave it away to, Namely the 1% and the Banksters,
3)Raise the top tax rate to 75% minimum, No exceptions, No Exemptions, (no one should become so wealthy that the only thing left for them to own is the government.)
4)Get a handle on global climate change,
5)stop behaving like a empire and end the endless war,
6)Legalize Hemp and regulate it like Liquor,
7)get us off of the fiat and back on a debt free currency,
8)Insist on the enforcement of the Fairness doctrine in MSM,
9) Reinstate the Inheritance tax.
10)Add the following Constitutional amendments;1) Money is not free speech it's an amplifier. and 2) Corporations are not persons they are organizations.
11) Single Payer Health insurance, get rid of the middle man. (some things should not be profit driven. Like Health care, clean water, and air.) These are Rights.
Can any one add to the list!? Or would you care to rebut My comment?

2. Right things to sell. Really bad at selling it.

All this extra funding of education and infrastructure means greater prosperity in our future. You don't fund those things because those are those things.

People are judging things by money. Talk to them Mr. President.

3. Oh, I am sure the budget will reflect priorities.

The 1% will be v. happy, I believe.
