Welcome to our page! We are starting this petition to let the congress and our government officials know how upset we are about the new Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac system. Although don't take this wrong we understand they did the right thing by helping them and not letting the entire system crash. Our problem is that our government is using OUR tax money to pay the CEO's of these two companies, a severnce pay anywhere from 9-14 million dollars...EACH! For one we don't understand why we are the ones paying them when their company is in debt over 5 trillion dollars, and why should they be getting our money when they knowingly ran their company into so much of a decrease it almost crashed! Please help us in our fight against our taxes being used to buy people more luxury items. If you would like to join our petition or sign it please e-mail us at rcannon@miami.k12.ok.us or you could also leave us a comment on this page and we will add your name!
Thanks for your time,

Hi. My nameis Destiny Coleman. I am in seventh gade so I am a future taxpayer. I agree with you. If the older pepole have to pay taxes on it now that means that we will have to pay it when we are older. Justbecause I am, and most others, are future taxpayers dosent mean that our vocies shouldent be ignored. We are the next ganeration. If they have to pay this now we will have to when we are older. The pepole need to listen to us. If we don't make adiffrence now whow will???
