Their front page is misleading! actually over 18,000 have signed the petition, but you have to click through to see the totals. Another 0 in that number would be nice - - - The front page just tells you for that day ----- 8,000+ total for the whales though

Feed the whales with the unemployed, lol...

Hey Government:
Set up a plankton plant, where just long term unemployed would be hired, to process other long term unemployed to be transformed in plankton.

I am very hesitant to do anything about the fifth tier. It's because it's one of those things that won't effect me. I believe that there should be a tier 5 when the three month average is 9.0 or above. I am just about to start my 3rd tier, and now I have a delay because of something screwey in MA. What are we supposed to do about a 5th tier? If they won't listen to you what makes you think they'll listen to us, the ones that are still on the tiers?
