Gnome3, Unity, KDE4 with Centos 7, Scientific Linux 7, Ubuntu, and Mint All Problematic

With any of the above Desktops there is the option to Shutdown, Reboot, Hibernate, or Suspend available to the normal non-administrative user.  The polkit-1 settings don’t seem to work.  If anyone knows of a fix, I’d really like to make these new servers running Centos 7, Scientific Linux 7, Ubuntu, and Mint available.
