Speak out, Oct. 24: Biden, Trump, Pelosi, PBPD

Biden promise

I appreciated the political information from Mr. Justice and Mr. French, however I would like to know more about Mr. Biden’s promise of a $15 minimum wage. That matters much more to us Southeast Missouri folks than climate change or the Supreme Court.

Pot vs. kettle

Judging from Mr. Eddy Justice comments in the newspaper, he has totally forgotten or maybe he never saw, knew or heard of the Trump, Billy Bush conversation on television. We’ve got a situation of the pot calling the kettle black.

Pelosi

I hear a lot of riff raff about people saying Pelosi is slowing up the stimulus package. No, Pelosi is not agreeing to what the Republicans are wanting. They’re not wanting just a stimulus package. They’re wanting to stop that earned income tax credit that people get every year. They seem to appreciate it a lot. … The Republicans are wanting to cut out a lot more stuff if she agrees to sign what they’re doing. So don’t be blaming it on Pelosi.

New PBPD

Every time I read in the paper about the cost of the new police department I want to throw up. Just think — only four people made this decision. P.B. is saddled with so much debt at a time when we should be cutting up the credit cards.
