A Waffle House treat
After a year and a half of living like a hermit, I took my vaccinated self out for breakfast at Waffle House. A friendly face not only remembered me, she knew what I wanted to order and how I liked my coffee. Vaccines can help us live, but special people make life worth living. Thank you, Roxy, you rock!
Biden’s economy
The left’s definition of Biden doing a good job seems to always go back to Trump and his ‘deluded supporters’. No specifics on how Biden has improved your life, just Trump’s ‘assault on democracy’. Border crisis, supply chain crisis, highest inflation in 12 years, gas prices skyrocketing, Afghanistan debacle. And Biden is doing a good job. Right.
Gas prices not Biden’s fault
The economy is not tanking, inflation is not any higher and gas prices fluctuate all the time. Stop making up a crisis that doesn’t exist just because you don’t like Biden is president.
No Cruisin’ COVID surge
Well here we are two weeks past the close of Crusin’ the Coast, and apparently no surge from the “super spreader event.” Maybe it’s time for the hysteria to die from natural causes…
Infrastructure bill a win-win
The high cost of the proposed infrastructure bill will end up paying for itself. Countess jobs will be created to overhaul our infrastructure. The workers filling these jobs will now have money in their pockets. They will spend this money which will help our economy grow large and especially our small businesses. This income also will be taxed, so our government will be collecting extra tax money to pay the wages of these workers. It’s a win-win situation.
Need for grocery store
Boy, we sure could use a grocery store up here on Mississippi 67 north. I’d like to appeal to one of your local advertising stores, Rouses, to please consider building a store on this heavily-traveled piece of highway that has a lot of vacant empty areas to build on. It would be worth it if they would at least come look up here & check it out. Thank you.
Research the facts
Why do people use internet-connected devices to write fictitious information they heard from a podcast or fake news source to sound off or post on social media, but do not use that same internet device to research the facts of the subject?
Within the budget?
Biden said of his $3.5 trillion spending bill, before, during and after the most recent raising of the debt limit, “We need this. We can afford it.” That’s equivalent to a family of 10 with a $25,000 annual income going to the Chevy dealer, buying a 2-passenger, $100,000 Corvette and saying to their bank loan officer, “We need this. We can afford it.”
Set term limits
There is a push on right now for term limits for all Congressmen and women. This is something the will straighten out a lot of problems in our government. Especially all the corruption that we have been seeing for a number of years now. If we had term limits for all congress persons — they wouldn’t have time to get settled and become so corrupt. I believe this is something every American should get behind.
