Things are getting bad

Things are getting bad

EDITOR:

Our beloved country is near a catastrophe that I’m not sure can (or should) be averted. We have lost our moral and ethical compass in the respect that anything goes and a what’s-in-it-for-me mindset prevails. Our Christian-based foundations are weakening and our economy is sputtering to a halt due to a select handful of our legislators and other rich and powerful people who have run out of status symbols and dislike a middle class that can buy some of the things the wealthy can enjoy. Their response is to eliminate the enemy, which is the middle class, which they are doing quite nicely. We will have the rich and the poor.

We can begin a small revolution permanent unemployment is here, and I emphasize permanent. Without a job you won’t even be able anything at the biggest supporter of communism, Walmart. You won’t have the money.

Many people will run out of all of the phony extensions of unemployment they are giving the people just to prevent riots. I suggest arming yourselves for your own protection. I suggest removing all of the legislators who think they are supreme and above the common people.

Aren’t you mad? I am. We had better learn to do with less, avoid foreign products, get on the backs of your so-called representatives and turn this country around before we go over the falls.
