CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY FEBRUARY 12, 2025
IT MAY NOT SEEM LIKE MUCH, BUT IT’S ALL PART OF A CAREFULLY CRAFTED SCRIPT TO SHOW AMERICANS HOW SO MANY DECISIONS BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT ARE CONTRARY TO OUR INTERESTS.
EXAMPLES: PAPER STRAWS AND PENNIES. PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS ORDERED THAT A BIDEN EDICT FORCING PEOPLE TO USE PAPER STRAWS BE ENDED AND REVERT BACK TO PLASTIC STRAWS.
HE HAS ALSO ORDERED THAT MINTS NO LONGER PRODUCE THE PENNY, WHICH COSTS MORE THAN ONE CENT TO PRODUCE.
MY VIEW IS WE SHOULD GET RID OF ALL CHANGE. WHY FUMBLE IN YOUR POCKET OR PURSE FOR CHANGE AND HOLD UP A LINE AT CHECKOUT? MORE AND MORE WE ARE USING DEBIT CARDS. WHY NOT JUST ROUND-UP OR DOWN TO THE NEXT DOLLAR INSTEAD? IF AN ITEM COSTS $5.49 CENTS, MAKE IT $5. IF IT COSTS $5.51, MAKE IT $6. ADJUST FOR TAXES.
TRUMP IS CHOOSING A LOT OF THINGS THAT HUGE MAJORITIES OF AMERICANS FAVOR. HE IS EXPOSING THE SILLINESS, STUPIDITY, FRAUD AND WASTE THAT PERVADES THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. POLLS SHOW A MAJORITY ARE BEHIND HIM.
NO MORE “A PENNY FOR YOUR THOUGHTS.” NOW LET’S GO AFTER NICKELS AND DIMES AND THE REST. I’M CAL THOMAS.
