Who made this mess? Clearly, it belongs to federal officials, the president and Congress. What have they done right? The war, free trade tax cuts, mandates, the stock market, banking, business regulations and protecting citizens. The result of mistakes in all these areas is a decaying economy. Money is flowing up to a few and the rest is flowing out of the country. Jobs are disappearing, exports are shrinking and imports are booming. States are in dire financial trouble, borders are open wide — and on and on.
Federal politicians need a wake-up call. The American people and this country deserve better leadership.
Have voters elected fools to lead them? It appears they have and the fools must be voted out of office. Let’s hope America can survive until then. They just don’t get it.

Letter: Hiring Winkler not wise spending

Letter: Bill of Rights being nullified by new law
President Obama signed the National Defense Authorization Act on New Year’s Eve. I doubt many Americans noticed its implications because they do not yet comprehend the big picture. This law, coupled with the Patriot Act, is paving the way for America’s direction toward tyranny.

Letter: Economy putting people in the gutters
We are now getting the results of putting people in the gutters. We need to take a second look at our government and its policies. It’s not working.

Viewpoint: Look at Creation Museum from an educational, scientific perspective
I encourage any and all who have interest in this vitally important topic to “go to the source,” to invest the time and energy into exploring The Creation Museum for themselves.

Letter: Blame the voters for our Congress
Why is insider trading legal for Congress and illegal for the rest of us? They make and enact laws for all of us, but then exempt members of Congress. Somehow this doesn’t seem to pass the smell test.

Letter: Smith’s firings appear vindictive
Anderson is a city of negative publicity and actions. Why else is Sears leaving? Can we stand four years of vindictive actions and negative reporting?
