What’s missing from the GOP tax bill?

<p>Is anybody paying attention to what is going on?</p><p>We have a Republican-controlled government. That means we will be at war soon.</p><p>They are already saying things like North Korea has the ability to hit our country with a bomb. Now I hear them saying it could get past our protective system.</p><p>I heard this song and dance before. It was all lies, and we lost a lot of good young men, and a lot of our good Republican businessmen made a lot of money on the lie.</p><p>I love my grandchildren, and I don&#8217;t want them going to war for some greedy politician.</p><p>We have to stand up to these people. It&#8217;s not hard to figure out who they are. When I see their kids going then I&#8217;ll know it&#8217;s for real. The only thing the politicians listen to is money and votes, so get on the phone and flood them with your feelings. We have sat on our hands long enough.</p><p>Wake up.</p><p><strong>Dale Eastman</strong></p><p>Meshoppen</p><style>
