To the editor:

This pouring of money to everyone needs to stop. Yes, we need to help those through no fault of their own caused them to lose their jobs. It is our “politicians” who drove them to poverty. It is our politicians who wish to make our citizens wards of the state who did this. It is our politicians who emphasized the worst that can happen if you contract COVID-19. I survived a bout even though I am 89 years old. I did take the vaccine when offered.

Can you imagine having a credit card debt equal to the amount you earn each year?!

This is what our politicians propose. The Republicans have joined the Modern Monetary Theory. Debt doesn’t matter. Greece has learned otherwise. Once the world determines you will not pay your debts, God help you. You are now in in a world of hurt. Argentina and Venezuela are other examples.

It wouldn’t be so bad except the world expects the U. S. of A. does pay our debts. It is getting to the point where we can not. Our poor grandchildren and great-grandchildren are saddled with a debt they can never pay off! Biden’s $1.9 trillion blow out is the latest. We haven’t even used the previous allocations!

Enough already!
