CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY OCTOBER 13, 2022
WHAT FRUSTRATES ME – AND WHAT SHOULD FRUSTRATE YOU – IS THAT SO MANY OF THE PROBLEMS THAT CONFRONT AMERICA HAVE SOLUTIONS. BUT LIKE THE ANCIENT ISRAELITES WHO REFUSED TO LISTEN TO THE PROPHETS GOD SENT TO THEM, TOO MANY POLITICIANS IGNORE THE SOLUTIONS. TO SOLVE A PROBLEM MEANS YOU NO LONGER HAVE THE ISSUE.
SOLUTIONS ARE AVAILABLE TO REDUCE THE $31 TRILLION DEBT AND REDUCE INFLATION. THE SOLUTION IS TO CUT GOVERNMENT SPENDING. SOCIAL SECURITY AND MEDICARE MUST BE REFORMED OR BOTH PROGRAMS WILL BE IN JEOPARDY, BUT THE LEFT PREFERS TO USE THESE ENTITLEMENT PROGRAMS TO BASH REPUBLICANS WHO ADVOCATE FOR REFORMS.
THE SOLUTION TO PRODUCING MORE ENERGY AND REDUCING GAS PRICES IS MORE DRILLING AND RESTORING THE KEYSTONE PIPELINE, BUT THE GREEN CULTISTS DON’T WANT THAT. AS COLUMNIST WALTER RUSSELL MEADE WROTE ABOUT GREEN POLICIES IN THE WALL STREET JOURNAL, “THE U.S. AND ITS ALLIES UNDERMINE THEIR OWN INTERESTS WITH LITTLE ENVIRONMENTAL PAYOFF.” SO, RESULTS DON’T MATTER, ONLY INTENTIONS.
THAT THINKING HAS EVEN INVADED SOME PUBLIC SCHOOLS WHERE THERE ARE NO WRONG OR RIGHT ANSWERS.
SOLUTIONS ARE AVAILABLE FOR MOST PROBLEMS. IGNORING THEM ONLY MAKES THE PROBLEMS WORSE. I’M CAL THOMAS.
