Level of luxury

President Biden’s plan to absolve many college students from their loan debt is ill-conceived and unfair, and an apparent plan to buy votes before the midterm elections. It’s a slap in the face to the millions of young Americans who choose to work in the trades rather than bury themselves in college debt. It teaches irresponsibility to young people who voluntarily incurred these debts, majoring in areas that will never provide sufficient income to repay them. It encourages colleges and universities to continue to inflate the cost of education. I went through college years ago, incurred some debt and paid it off on time and in its entirety. When I visit my grandkids at college today, I’m astounded at the level of luxury that schools now must provide if they are to attract students. Amazing cafeterias, top-notch recreational facilities, comfortable and spacious dormitories, and so on. It’s ridiculous and could really be pared down to bring costs into line.

What an idiot

This is in reply to the person that wrote “A grifter plain and simple.” You are the most dangerous kind of person that this country has. You spread misinformation on steroids and, worse yet, they put it in the paper. Trump flushed stuff down the toilet because Cassidy Hutchinson said so, and she took a picture of a staged toilet with some paper with writing on it. So it’s so because Hutchinson said it was so? How naive are you? You need to go sit down and be ashamed of yourself and have some humility. Actually, the heck with your humility. Why don’t you grow a brain? I suppose you really believe that we have inflation because of Putin’s war, huh? I suppose you’re one of those who really believe that. What an idiot.

Planted information?

The FBI admits that they were in Trump’s compound going through classified information in a room where he had it all stored. They asked him to put a double lock on it, and he accommodated them. What’s to say those FBI agents that were in that room did not plant information in that room so that they could use it against him? They’ve done everything else lawlessly, so I would not imagine that they could not have done that.

Sick of it

I’m sure people have heard Mark Zuckerberg was in collusion with the FBI regarding not disclosing Mr. Biden’s son Hunter in this craziness. So what else is the FBI hiding from the citizens of the United States? They believe in censoring, and Mark Zuckerberg censored a lot of information when it also came down to the elections. We need a president who’s going to stand up for this country, and stand up for people’s rights. Who’s going to stand up? I’m just appalled by everything that’s going on in this country, especially with the FBI and our elected officials who refused to play ball by the rules. I am just sick of it, folks and sick of the people that are so naive.

Created a hornets nest

The Democrats have many problems to solve today. They usually worry about getting reelected, getting big paychecks, spending money our country doesn’t have and running down people who disagree with their policies. Parents have been called domestic terrorists. They have allowed demonstrations illegally outside the homes of justices and Judge Kavanaugh has had an attempted murder. Then to top it off, they raided a former president’s home. They have created a hornets nest.
