Letters to the Editor for Feb. 12
DecorumRegarding President Biden’s recent State of the Union address, it is amazing how many members of Congress took leave of their senses and, therefore, forgot their sense of decorum during the president’s address. It might help for all members of Congress to hear the words of Mahatma Gandhi: “Intolerance, discourtesy and harshness ... are taboo in all good society and are surely contrary to the spirit of democracy.”RecyclingRe: the Feb.
In answer to the letter writer who says Republicans “want to cut Social Security,” untrue. What is true is that some Republicans want to reform Social Security so that it remains solvent and thus doesn’t have to start paying only 77% of scheduled benefits starting in 2034.
Arizona seniors have long been taken advantage of by drug manufacturers setting high prices for life-saving medications. Provisions in the IRA take power from price gougers, saving us money and our lives. As a Medicare recipient, I am already seeing savings on our prescription costs that Republicans now want to take away. I applaud the Democrats who helped pass the IRA. It is far past time for the Republicans to do more for Arizonans.I’ve heard it said that today’s Republican Party is not your parent’s Republican Party. That’s an understatement, and I don’t understand why the press continues to refer to today’s Republicans as conservative.
