I’ll help out, but I don’t want to be taken advantage of

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

I am responding to the statement that ‘This will be enormously painfull and anyone who says othersie is a fraud. The trick will be to spread the pain fairly.

Welfare reform should focus on eliminating poverty

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

The focus of “welfare reform” being primarily on the reduction and limitations of cash benefits is unfortunate.  Too often it appears as though we are blaming the victims.  This is not to say every TANF (Temporary Aid to Needy Families)…

Left behind — or waiting behind?

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

 

Your editorial in the Wednesday P-D, Left Behind, about poverty in Missouri and the relationship to the loss of jobs was interesting. But as like others complaining about U. S. jobs going overseas you have not addressed one of the…

Standing up for responsibility and tough decisions

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

In response to the article Insurance vs. Ideology, I would like to point out a few things. Take a look at what government involvement in our healthcare system has done, the endless regulation and paperwork have caused prices to skyrocket…

Two opinions, two problems

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Well your first effort is a continuation of effort to condem Republican legislators and let the Democrats slide by on an at least an “adequacy” comparison. The “stimulus spending” you allow the Democrats will hardly stimulate anything in this economy,…

Immigrants should have access to social welfare programs

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

While the St. Louis community may be divided on the issues of immigrant rights, there are few who can justify denying rights to legitimate, documented tax paying citizens of this country, many of which also happen to be foreign-born members…

Taxing someone else’s hard work is unpatriotic

St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Charity begins at home; not the House of Representatives. The House of Representatives may have the power of the purse, but it has no right to any American’s purse. Life has never been, is not, and never will be fair.…

Brenda Warner should pay taxpayers back first

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Brenda Warner said she “used to be a single mother on food stamps” and so feels like she is doing something commendable by buying someone a meal in a restaurant? The real poor can’t even get to the restaurant to…

The cause of current social chaos isn’t difficult to determine

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

The article “Fear Spurs Teens to Carry Guns, They Say” was interesting reading. What I find interesting is what the Post-Dispatch and like minded liberals find as cause-and-effect relationships, and as being self evident. Other well worn examples being poverty…

Environmentalism: Just another social engineering ploy by Demomcrats

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Charles Krauthammer’s Sunday column on the environment was right on, as compared to the leftist propaganda in the Climate Security editorial.  The hypocrisy on the left is astonishingly mind boggling.  Environmentalism is just another attempt by the Democrats at social engineering.  One…
