Republican Party seems the alternative

The present administration is draining our strategic oil reserves (for votes) as the Axis of Evil threatens nuclear war. Today, carbon fuels are the basis of power, and we are asking the likes of Iran and Venezuela to help us, when we have proven we can help ourselves to oil independence. The transition to green energy has to be gradual, not precipitous when threats abound.

On top of our self-inflicted oil dependency, we have managed to create a national debt of $30 trillion on which we are raising interest rates to fight inflation — as if the price of money is not inflationary. Who are these people who are destroying our economy?

There is no appreciation of life itself. Violence is rampant and death seems to be ignored as a consequence of guns, drugs and a border that does not deserve to be called a border. Law and order have no meaning or support by elected officials.

If we, the people, do not demand term limits, career politicians are going to continue to line their pockets as they allow us and our country to die.

We must align ourselves with a more conservative and patriotic movement. Today, the Republican Party seems our only alternative. If we continue to allow the Democrats to run our major cities, ignore violence, ignore our porous border, debauch our dollar and promote “green” when oil is the source of power in a more dangerous world, made so by acquiescence to threatening despots, we will find ourselves in a socialist economy ruled by those very despots.
