Speak Out 10/19/18

Economy depends on oil prices

Hello Speakout. I'd just like to throw my two cents' worth out there, they're talking about the stock market going down and other things. But, if you'll look over the last 20 years every time there's been an increase in the price of crude oil there's been a decrease in the stock market and in other things that's going on in the economy. Loss of jobs, lack of new job creation, and new vehicle sales, and it all goes back because the basic expense in our economy is fuel. Just think about it. Go back and look at the history of it and you'll see that I'm right.

Thank you for Hep A pamphlet

This Saturday I was in the Walmart Marketplace. I was stopped by a young lady giving away pamphlets. I thought it was from somebody who was trying to sell me something or from a politician running for the next election. I was surprised to receive a copy of a very informative pamphlet entitled, "Help Stop the Spread of Hepatitis A." I want to express my gratitude to those students who elected not to stay in bed and sleep late on a Saturday morning but wanted to help educate our community about this disease. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
