I was just wondering
To the editor:
I have been wondering and thinking about a lot of things over these past few months. I assume everyone had an opinion about everything.
I wonder if a stock broker has inside information on a deal or a politician has stock in a known company, it’s called a conflict of interest, How come a person receiving taxpayer assistance and is allowed to vote isn’t a conflict of interest? I was just wondering why every politician, be federal, state and especially local, screams for more money for education, yet every time I read test scores in the newspaper, they seem to be getting lower each year.
I wonder why anyone would vote for a third party candidate. It’s only taking away a vote from one of the two main party candidates … wonder which one? I was wondering why Mitt Romney’s money is always questioned. I never heard anything about John Kennedy or FDR being so rich. I was wondering what would the military be like if you took a private, put some stars and ribbons on his uniform and called him a general. We did the same thing with a community organizer and called him president.
What does shared prosperity actually mean? Is that smoke and vapor for those who work hard and accumulate wealth and are supposed to give some to those that don’t try?
I was just wondering why I never hear about a Muslim riot or burnings in Russia or China.
Just what is Earned Income Credit? How do you get a refund on zero input?
What’s with all this gun violence? I’ve had a lot of firearms in my possession for years. After reading so much about how guns will kill people, I bought a safe to store them in. I may get killed by the firearm laying in my drawer. I’ve never had a firearm discharge on its own. I was just wondering how come just about every vote recount turns out in favor of the Democratic candidate, even if it has to be recounted several times.
I was just wondering …
