LETTER: Vote Democrat

A recent letter listed gas prices as a reason to vote Republican.

Wrong!

Gas prices are set by the oil industry.

To address this fact Congress introduced the Consumer Fuel Price Gouging Prevention Act to allow the feds to intervene. Not one Republican voted yes.

Seems they are more interested in making gas prices a campaign issue than actually doing something about it.

The complaint of high taxes depends on who you are.

The Trump tax bill helped the top income bracket pay only 8.2 percent while the rest of us pay double digits.

Economists views on taxes vary but one thing they all seem to agree on, the Republicans tax bill failed to help the economy.

Current job growth and unemployment rates have been met with silence by Republicans.

No wonder.

Unemployment rate of 3.6 percent is one of the all time lows since 1969.

Department of Labor reports that all 21 million jobs lost during the pandemic have returned.

The latest report shows more job creation in Biden’s first six months than a full year under Trump.

The abortion issue has exposed the hypocrisy of Republicans believing in small government government doesn’t get much bigger than invading a personal medical decision.

Republicans ignore the fact the United States has the highest death rate from pregnancy related causes in the western world.

They force women to give birth yet fail to fund ways to make it safe.

Pro-life?

Hardly!

Voting Democrat is the right choice.
