Subject: Ever get tired of writing lies all day?
Dear Sir,
You must be frustrated of late. The amount of lies in your articles have become more appalling with each subsequent article. To wit:
- You insinuate the federal minimum wage at $7.25 is one source of anger fueling the protests. You failed to note that the minimum wage is $15 in NYC and Washington DC, $14.25 in LA, and $10 in Minneapolis.
- Your reference to an inflation adjusted minimum wage of $13 is another lie (of omission). This represents the highest minimum wage in the past (inflation-adjusted), not the average. Why not report the average min wage unless your intent was to lie and deceive like a good socialist?
- You mention half of blacks are jobless but fail to mention why. Maybe it is because of the lockdown that as of last month you wanted imposed until a vaccine was available.
- You failed to note that the schools systems in the protest-stricken cities are run by Democrats in the thrall of the teachers unions. How many of these cities are against charter schools?
- You falsely imply that higher taxes on the wealthy will solve the problem. There isn’t enough marginal tax income from the wealthy to fund the programs you proposed. You would have to raise taxes significantly on the middle and lower income classes to pay for your programs. Another lie of omission. Why not report the truth about taxed income unless your intent was to lie and deceive like a good socialist?
- We don’t need higher taxes on companies as that hurts investment and jobs.
- Why should readers care about income inequality when they see rioters destroy minority-owned businesses? The rioters and protestors obviously don't care income inequality, otherwise why would they be destroying these businesses?
Finally, stop writing as if you care about the poor. Your nothing but a phony. All you care about is your socialist utopia and the power it brings to people like you.
