Democrats, I know some of you believe we have a climate crisis, so why stop the Keystone Pipeline, which would deliver fuels without using carbon-burning trains or barges? Thousands were immediatel­y unemployed after COVID restrictio­ns have already devastated millions. The administra­tion suggested pipeline workers make solar panels (wages equal half, jobs not available.)

This administra­tion wants to transition to more solar and wind, like California, which has high electric rates and frequent brownouts.

Biden wants to legalize more immigratio­n, who could then take “above-the-table” jobs. He stopped work on the border wall (more Americans unemployed, more will enter illegally). He wants to increase legal immigratio­n numbers. We don’t currently have excess jobs. Immigrants will take jobs that Americans — devastated by virus lockdowns and energy-sector shutdowns — desperatel­y need. Is this what Democrats want: war against working Americans?

New York Times columnist David Brooks tweeted, “The Biden team is absolutely right to go big (spending) if we can use COVID as a pretext to alleviate inequality, lagging wages and people dropping out of the labor force.” And in his column he wrote “Democrats, God put you on this Earth to spend government money on the disadvanta­ged. Now, please go do it.”

What? It is not government money! It’s money taken from hardworkin­g taxpayers, and borrowed from China. We’re $28 trillion in debt.

Democrats, if you want to give out money, donate yours. But stop taking our jobs, raising our energy costs, and giving away money that we don’t have.
