Wake up America
Letter to the editor:
Those of us who have run a business of any size will tell you there is no way to borrow yourself out of debt. When our governing elected people go to such an extra effort to bail out those who never learned what their limits of production are and all of those whom the government encouraged to ignore their limit of production through over spending have ourselves in dire circumstances. Now we are stealing our children’s and grand children’s living by leaps and bounds which will only make it hard for them. If you’re trying to buy votes I suggest you think twice. We will wake up soon. Of course you have not taken a cut in pay and will retire with 6 figures income, into which you have paid nothing like the social security people have done. Prove to us you can actually care, put yourselves on social security one and all, then, tell the true worker to take a cut. Yes there is a better way to quit spending more than we earn. This alone will pay a very large part of the debt you are dumping on our grand children, especially what we save on your retirement and other spiffs.

I am writing to express my support for Nik Rule, host of Triple C on William Penn University’s KIGC radio station. Although the students went a little too far in their public criticism of Dr. Veerasamy on the April 11th Triple C radio show, there were no intentionally racist remarks or sounds.
