Milestone in stupidity

Dear editor:

Today, May 12, is a milestone in stupidity: 1,000,000 Americans have died of COVID. What has the government done? Spent trillions helping other countries. While rent, food, gas, and everything else keep going up. But the rest of the world is getting help. But our own country won’t be honest or help its citizens. Congress fights down party and religious lines. People who don’t want the vaccine claim their body, their choice. But our Supreme Court, which is supposed to be nonpartisan, is about to oppress women by taking away abortion rights.

We’ve sent billions to the Ukrainians, with partisan voting. For a war we have no business being involved in. Americans just going to Ukraine to fight. Like they are on vacation just to kill a Russian. Social media right now is more ridiculous than ever. But again our government, state and federal, can’t do a thing to help the American people.

When are you all going to wake up? No one is helping us. I like to sum it up to my friends in the simplest way I know how, because people are stupid. How is it I can’t get a pothole on my road that’s been there for almost 10 years fixed? Because they don’t have the money. But we have money to buy the police tanks and other ridiculous things we as a community don’t need.

In October, the United States will be completely broke, like all the money will be gone. No one is talking about it. This is what the Republicans and Democrats have achieved. But you still vote for them … stop.

We need leaders who actually care about people, not their religion, or any other company or lobby that control them. Enjoy the summer COVID wave. Enjoy $5 gas. And don’t get me started on food prices. Don’t forget the baby formula shortage.

I mean, I guess children in America who are dying from starvation every day, is way better than abortion. As long as you’re happy and you feel your opinion has been validated. Put your Bibles down. Think for yourselves. Stop letting the preacher with the Rolex and Cadillac tell you how to think and how to vote. It’s time to fix this country. But are any of you capable to get off social media for five minutes to do it? Ron Swanson
