Opinion: Letter to the Editor: How Bad Does It Have To Get?

We have the worst gun violence in the world because Republicans are in the pocket of gun dealers. We have the most expensive health care in the world because Republicans are in the pocket of the healthcare industry.

We have the worst record fighting climate change because Republicans are in the pocket of the fossil fuel industry. How bad does it have to get before people stop voting for Republicans?

Republicans give bribes to the rich in the form of tax cuts and deregulation (trickle down) which explode our deficits until it wrecks our economy and Democrats are left to clean up the mess. Democrats invest in the middle class to grow the economy from the middle out, because it creates a stronger, more stable economy that works better for everyone. Republicans complain about how slow Democrats are at cleaning up their mess and then lie and cheat their way back into power, until they crash the economy again. How bad does it have to get before people stop voting for Republicans?
