What is there about common sense that escapes our politicians? Why do we go deeper into debt borrowing money from China to give to other countries that would not help us if the situation were reversed? Why do we allow more and more immigrants into the country to take jobs when so many of our citizens are out of work? Why are we trying to stop mass murders by limiting gun purchases when there are already more guns in private hands than can be counted? Why do we raise tax rates on the wealthy instead of rewriting the tax code to take away their tax breaks? Why aren’t we placing an embargo on foreign goods to raise government revenues and protect our homemade goods?
Can it be that the politicians have goals other than maintaining our well-being?
