It’s me again, old and “whys.”

Why do the taxpayers have to provide more for prisoners than warm, dry and fed? Prison is supposed to be punishment, not vacation.

Why do taxpayers have to support illegal immigrants who obviously are lawbreakers? That’s the illegal part, for those who can’t figure that out.

Why do taxpayers owe drug users medical assistance? Were they forced to take drugs? No, they made that decision on their own.

Why do we have term limits on the presidency, yet allow career politicians in other offices? That’s why we have political misconduct, bribery and so forth.

Why do politicians have cars provided at taxpayers’ expense? “Regular” people (taxpayers) provide their own cars for work, or the company they work for does.

Why are we still fighting the Biden/Trump issues? It’s over, please move on. Those who can’t see President Biden as the feeble person he is need their heads examined.

Nothing to do with politics, just the facts.

I could go on, but the Trib limits the number of words in letters.
