RICH STEVENSON, Bio, Male Co-Chair

OPEN BALLLOT ACCESS EQUAL POLITICAL SPEECH

U.S. Congress, OH1: Rich was on the ballot as the Green Party Candidate on November 02, 2010 and November 06, 2012. Rich was on the ballot in 2000 as the Natural Law Party Candidate for OH1 Congress; Who is Rich? Click the picture to read 3 biography pages to help answer that question; Rich asks for your vote in November 2022 to support clean government. All contributions since 2012 will go to Citizens for Stevenson to win the 2022 campaign for KY3 Congress in Louisville (Jefferson County), KY.

Rich failed to get enough petition signatures as a populist nonpartisan candidate in 2002-2008. The result was no independent or minor party candidate on the ballot for OH ONE in 2002, 2004 (Write-in), 2006, or 2008 (Write-in). The voters of OH ONE had no candidate on the ballot to represent all District One voters. We did not allow that to happen in 2010 or 2012. I was on the General Election ballot again in November 2010 and 2012 for U.S. Congress in OH1. I was the Green Party Candidate both times. Rich moved to Louisville, KY in July 2013. So Rich could not be a candidate for KY3 in 2014. Rich was unable to get 400 valid signatures to get on the KY 03 ballot in November 2016 and November 2018.

Gave up on a 2020 Campaign due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

U.S. Congress, KY3: We still have a chance to fire a career incumbent on November 08, 2022. A vote for the career incumbent Democrat or any Republican on the KY3 ballot in 2022 will be a wasted vote if you want actual representation for natural citizens in Congress. Proactively elect Rich. You win. The voters of KY3 will be fully represented in Congress in 2023 and 2024. Use your vote wisely. Proactively elect Rich.

I get on the ballot as a populist nonpartisan to give us new leadership not controlled by any political party. I stand for office to give voters a voice in government through a citizen legislator who represents only his fellow citizens. I do not seek a career in Washington D.C. When elected, I would have been/will be self term-limited to two terms, four years in office, for OH1/KY3 voters. I am quite simply a "proactive citizen." I am a populist independent.  Registered as a Democrat so I can vote in one of the two Closed KY Primary Elections. I advocate for one Final Five Primary Election open to all KY voters. We need open Final Five Primary elections in all fifty states.

We live in a diverse culture. My issues are related to my own background. I am a part native-American citizen who relies on the bill of rights to secure my spiritual freedom from the religious beliefs of others. I am a college graduate who worked as a drafter on an hourly wage contract basis for twenty-two years. In the early 1950s, my wages would have been taxed 2% by the IRS. Corporate income taxes were in the 40% range. Individual income taxes were 91% on income above $5 million. But since the 1950s, Corporate income taxes have been lowered about 20%, with the highest individual income tax lowered to 38% on any unlimited amount of personal income. The super wealthy pay just 15% on the unlimited capital gains tax. Just 15%! There is no tax on accumulated "wealth."

These huge transfers of national wealth to a few Corporations and individuals have devastated millions of lower and middle class wage earners, as well as independent small business owners. For the first time in our history, the expectations of the next generation are lower than the expectations of the previous generation. The American dream is fading for our disappearing middle class.

The tax burden has gradually shifted to wage earners and family businesses, with the result that real wages for a majority of Americans have steadily declined over the past 40 years. During the same period, the real earnings ("wages") of the wealthiest 10% have more than doubled. The wealth of the 1% has increased up to ten-fold, 1000%. The wealthy have already won the "class war." Basking in their smug victory, the wealthy accuse those who advocate the re-distribution of wealth through progressive taxes to be guilty of "class warfare." This is propaganda by the super wealthy "class" to favor the wealthy. The super wealthy 0.001 of 1.0% own the media and our elected public servants.

The Internet and the Public Broadcasting Service are still somewhat free, for now. For now, we have a place to speak the truth.

The out of balance tax laws favoring the wealthy came about because the political process is owned by political contributors, mainly multi-national and other foreign corporations. The two bipartisan "major" political parties are on the take. Perhaps we should recognize that as corruption, plain and simple. We don't have to prove them guilty in court. We can act on common sense intuition with our votes. Vote career incumbents out of our public offices. Elect nonpartisan and minor party candidates.

We no longer have the representative democratic republic envisioned by our founders. Our participation in politics as populist nonpartisan proactive voters can regain that vision of freedom and a democratic republic for our people. The IVA is an Internet means to overcome the entrenched power of the bipartisan monopoly two-party system ("dictatorship," said Ralph Nader).

My son and grandchildren deserve a better world.

Occupy Open Clean Elections: The IVA is proposed to be a cooperative nonpartisan proactive voter structure organized on the computer, tablet amd smart phone desktops of IVA participants to give our people a strong voice in public elections and in our governments. We will end the corrupt monopoly power of the bipartisan two-party system.

The only IVA headquarters are located on the local computer, tablet and smart phone desktops of IVA participants on the political precinct level in all fifty states. Millions of desktops. We are the 99.999%. Occupy elections. Everybody vote! Unite America!

Your Voice, A New Social Paradigm: The IVA can be an Internet opportunity for a new beginning in open nonpartisan elections for our republic and for other people throughout the world. For our nation, an emphatic move away from a corruptible "bipartisan two-party political system" toward a "populist nonpartisan proactive voter system" with a vote in each election for every voter. Each voter will have a vote on every candidate elected and issue passed. All voters will have a voice in all elections. Trust will be restored. Unite America. Fix democracy. Up to you.

Emphasis will no longer be on ideology, power and control, but on issues and consensus solutions to our republic's problems. The IVA emphasis will be on liberty and justice for all in a more democratic republic.

Trickle Up:

A greater emphasis on "trickle up" Henry Ford economics will create a healthy equal opportunity economy. Fair trade rather than unrestrained free "trickle down" trade will create local wealth within our borders. Living wages for an honest day's work will "trickle up" to restore middle class confidence and financial security in a growing middle class majority.

 

 

Henry Ford Economics: Henry Ford paid his employees $5 per week instead of the prevailing $2-$3 per week so his employees could afford to buy the cars produced with mass production methods introduced in Ford Automobile plants in the early 1900s. The employees became customers for Ford automobile products. That is the Ford "trickle up" economic model. It produced wealth for many, many decades in the last century, and could still work adapted to today's economy. (Trickle Up) (Top of Page)
