Isn’t it kind of strange that the pro-abortion crowd characterizes pro-life people as anti-choice when they are the only ones who actually counsel a choice other than abortion?
David, Tinley Park
About twice as many jobs available as people looking for work. What are these individuals and families living on? The only explanation I can think of is that government aid programs have become much too easy to get and far too generous. As long as there is no work requirement for able-bodied people, this trend will continue, and as long as it does inflation will remain high and the economy will struggle. In other words, for millions it’s a case of why work?

To YCM of Orland Park, who says crime doesn’t pay. It just flabbergasts me that if you or I wound up in court, they’d nail us to the wall, but not if you’re important like Lawrence Wyllie, the superintendent from Lincoln-Way. Normally the person can be in jail and their lawyer shows up to continue the court case. They’re just passing his on until he dies so his wife can collect his $350,000 pension. That’s a crime in itself, besides the crime he stated.

So tired about folks complaining that our administration controls gas prices; no it does not, only to a minor degree. So quite complaining. We now finally see that the oil companies and OPEC controls them. Saudi supports Russia on oil production and wants to cut production, affecting the world market. For years, the U.S. has troops in Saudi, protecting them. Time is finally now to pull us out of the area. Our taxes must go to better things! Many senators agree from both sides, and it will be good for it to happen.

After I pay Medicare and my supplement insurance, there’s little left to live on. Now with winter approaching, I just hope I’m able to pay my electric and heat bills. Maybe I should go to the border and enter the U.S. and I wouldn’t have to worry about anything, thanks to our president who is blind in one eye and can’t see out of the other.
