Letter to the editor: Citizens kicked to curb

So unbelievable and disgusting is the fact that our governmental officials in Washington and in some of our states seem to have kicked the legal citizens of the United States of America to the curb.

Unbelievable that the day has come when we have to consider whether we buy a gallon of milk or a gallon of gas. Unbelievable that we have to sit and watch all of our hard-earned money that we’ve managed to invest for our future take a loss every day and pray that there will be some left to enjoy.

Unbelievable that more and more money is being sent to other countries to finance wars that have nothing to do with the United States of America while there is so much true need here at home.

Unbelievable is that illegal immigrants are being served on a silver platter whatever they need.

Disgusting is the fact that the legal citizens of the United States of America pay for the life of luxury of our politicians. For them, the words “hard times” are not in their vocabulary; they continue to live the good life as we pick up their tabs.

It’s time to rise up, pray and ask God for help taking back what we’re losing before it’s too late.
